Okay, maybe not technically a 1911 thread but it seems like this is the best place to get an answer here.
I am lucky and I can carry pretty much any pistol I want on duty. I have two 1911s that I had either purpose built or lightly modified to fit the bill. One is a full size custom build on a Foster/Caspian frame and slide. The other is a lightly customized old model 1991 Commander. The Commander is my favorite 1911 model and what I would prefer to carry on duty. The problem is finding a dedicated duty holster for it. I do have a Safariland Model 200, but I would prefer something at least Level II for retention. I don't like the Safariland 070 Level III and everything else I can find is made for the full size 1911s. If I use a full size holster I may as well carry the full size gun. Blade-Tech does make a duty holster for the Commander, but I have heard nothing real world on their use. Any thoughts guys/gals? Has anyone shortened a Safariland ALS holster to fit the Commander? I am not really in a rush so I am open to pretty much any good suggestions. |
