It'll get there eventually.
A trick that has worked for me without using any oil or anything is put the 1911 in a ziploc bag then stuff the whole thing in the holster and leave it for a while. helps loosen it up ever so slightly. |

first thing you need to do is get rid of that flimsy walmart belt
get a belt designed for CCW http://www.amazon.com/Reinforced-Looper-1-5-Inch-Square-46-Inch/dp/B00B79431A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457150470&sr=8-1&keywords=blade+tech+looper 
once you have something SOLID, . . . practice your draws, over and over again also a 1911 should be carried cocked & locked

Follow the above posters idea wrap in 2 bags to wax paper to help loosen things up a bit.it will work but don't over do it or you will ruin a good holster.the belt thing is good advice too.i think the 2 I have are a company called beltman.

sorry dude, from that second pic, it doesn't look like a gunbelt
like i said before, practice your draws over and over, stabilize the holster with you left hand until it loosens up don't put neatsfoot oil or anything on it, that would make it too soft the web is full of guys who spend big money on a handgun and try to carry it with a cheap belt ...glad to hear you're not one of them

Its all good. Yeah that's what i have been doing. Using my left hand to hold the holster while I draw. And yes I didn't want to get a cheap belt or holster for a $1200+ gun.
Guess I'll just keep working on it. |

Wrap it in several layers of Saran Wrap then shove into the holster and let it sit for a day or two and try again.
