1911 HOLSTERS

[crazyphil]

Do you have a favorite holster or holsters to carry your 1911?
Here are a few that I kinda like. Left to Right:

The 1911 Colt Gold Cup, an unmarked U.S. flap holster, on
a web belt.

2nd photo left to right: An Idaho Leather holster not made for
the 1911, but it fits. A work of art by David Keith. And an
Alamo that I rescued.

3rd photo starting upper left and going clockwise: DeSantis
HRT. When the FBI SWAT team went to the 1911 DeSantis
provided the holster. The ever popular Milt Sparks VMII IWB.
Safariland's Model 561 (the 560 is a paddle, the 561 has belt
loops). Kirkpatrick's TSS Texas Strong Side.

DeSantis Speed Scabbard and the original Bianchi Askins Avenger are about all I have used for the past 20 years...

bamabiker looking closer it may not be black. Maybe oxblood?

Perhaps someone can help identify this unmarked recent eBay find, sort of Brill-like, note the very thick welt:
