Question shoulder holsters....

does any one know where to find one of good quality but still inexpensive? does it make that big of a difference if it is leather or not? looking to get one for wearing under my jacket in the winter. i have a SA XD 45. thanks.

I use a Galco Miami Classic when not carrying IWB.



Comfortable, and accessable.
But you WILL need to:
PRACTICE WITH AN UNLOADED GUN and
KEEP YOUR FINGER OUT OF THE TRIGGER GUARD

to master the draw without "muzzle-sweeping" everyone in the room.

I picked mine up used for $100 on a different gun forum.

Horizontal or verticle? How well does it conceal? Trying to find one for my P91 and it apears that a universal fit is my only option...

It is kind of hard to conceal a full frame 1911 but it fits into the holster at a slight angle just off vertical.

Chris just duct tapes the 1911 to his chest.
He is a tough Guy.

ooohrah! LOL... I was packin it around today as a matter of fact.

the key to the duct tape is to keep shavin your chest.


That stuff itches like a midget following you around with a tiki torch and even sand paper won't cure this problem. (tell me who said this and you are on top of things!LOL)
