Which holster brand do you prefer and why. If you have experience with either one and can provide feedback. This will be for a full size 1911. I'm particuarly interested in the OWB belt holsters to compare.

Due to the overwhelming responses, I went with Comp-Tac.

i have tried: 3 bladetechs and 8 comptacs over the last few yrs...

still got: 1 bladetech and 7 comptacs

why? well for several reasons: 1st, the bladetech injected molded sucks, so dont compare it to anything comptac has--its simply cheapo, bulky kydex like uncle mike's
2nd: the techlock, while pretty good, doesnt ride well on the holster--WAY too high imo
3: wait time on bladetech is/was too dang long
4: i'm satisfied (and i'm sure you will be too) w/ comptac's product, functionality, and CS

when i was looking at holsters i decided i would buy comptac if i ever got kydex simply becasuse they dont have ungodly wait times. i dont own any of their product though so cant comment on quality.

Got the Comp-Tac Holster yesterday. I couldn't ask for a better holster. I'm very impressed with the design and quality. It fits my gun and me very well. The gun is held tight to the body. Very nice Holster indeed.

See?

You would still be waiting for the Bladetech.

Comp Tac for carry and Blade Tech for matches. I like the tech loc for easy changes between stages, but Blade Tech doesn't make a decent IWB. I have carried the Comp Tac shirt tucker for a couple years and still haven't found anything better. I would like to try the newer offerings from them, they look a little more stable. I don't actually use the shirt tuck function.

Out of the two you have listed Comp Tac wins hands down.

Another great one not listed is Urban Legend Speed Slide by Tucker

I had a CTAC and the about half the time I tried to draw from it the whole thing would come out of my pants.

I wish they would make a better loop design, such as snap loops like the VMII and the Blade-tech IWB. The cheesy clips they use are just worthless.

Should have asked for the C-clip
