On a side note Charter Arms has recently announced they will be changing the name of their Pink Lady to the Lorena Bobbitt signature model.

With the right holster, one can carry a 1911 in an IWB holster.

I carry a full size 1911 in an IWB holster. I conceal it fairly well with an untucked t-shirt.

Whats the aversion to shoulder holsters if I may ask? Just curious, no one ever seems to recommend them, but I find them to be very comfortable for CC.

Because when you take off your jacket, people immediately think, "Douchebag!"

At least, that's my opinion...

+1 I carry my DW Cbob in a Mtac IWB, untucked tshirt and cargo shorts all summer - you just need to set the holster low so the grip is closer to your waist.

But hypothetically, Its great for driving, its got to be the best for retention, nobody except directly in front of you has access to it, If someone made a grab for your firearm you would have more of a warning, jackets don't ride up to uncover it and as long as your wearing a jacket who cares or even knows if your a douche bag? I have read people say that you would sweep a 180 degree arc on the draw on horizontal rigs, but as long as the finger isn't in the trigger guard so what? Can we site any instances where a person shot someone while drawing from a shoulder harness? Police for decades used shoulder rigs, what made them change?

I just asked a question about why people don't recommend the shoulder holster rigs other than the fact that some consider it to be out of style, no need to get offensive about it. Is there a reason why other than it isn't in style? I mean look, we are going back to open carry, soon I can see a nice well made tooled leather holster with a 1911 to be very common sight.

That's the ONLY way I carry an M1911. I started with a Don Hume 715M and switched to my own handmade tuckable IWB.

Next you will probably crack on my LeMat as a carry revolver

Lets see if i can answer some of the questions
Yes it gets warm in Wisconsin. Define warm. Packers being 3-0 helps
I did tell him 2 fun shops that rent pistols.
Shoulder holsters shout cop to me.
If you carry your Lemat
I will carry my Schoefield. Actually I am planning on carrying the Schoefield if I can find a decent holster for it. I have not looked for one yet.
