Holster for my Springfield Armory M1911

Post by JosephVJarvis »

Looking for a holster for my Springfield Armory M1911 Range Officer Compact, chambered in 9mm. I will prefer like leather holsters. Any suggestions?

I like .45 cal. 1911 autos. I like the 'Commander' and 'Compact' size frames!

My preferred holster is the WW-2 style M-3 'tanker' holster. Full-length and shorter 1911 frames are secure in this rig.

Decent leather reproductions made in India, sell for as little as $22 to $28, on eBay, delivered.

Original and higher quality leather replicas can be found online for more money.

I like having my pistol well protected under my left arm from a potential assailant.

(I never store guns in contact with leather slings or holsters).
