I carry a full size 1911 at times, does it sag at all or does it stay up for those of you carry a bigger pistol?

I carry a M&P; Shield but I do have a full size 1911 and tried it for a couple of hours so I could answer your question. My belt did not sag. I wear it tight and on the hip.

I dont think it would hold up a 1911 owb. Its pretty thin. I use a iwb crossbreed 40 holster and its not great. My biggest issue is i cant get it tight enough. The thing is impossible to tighten down. I only got it to wear to the airport where I work, and Im not carrying there, but on the occasions have used it to carry I was overly impressed.

This belt will barely hold up your pants. I returned it and bought the double sided 5.11 belt. That one will hold a gun and other heavy belt utilities. The 1.5 inch belt I bought and would buy again is the 5.11 Tactical.59568 Adult's Double Duty TDU Belt 1.5-in.

Sorry I can't help, I don't carry. The web is pretty heavy, though, and the belt doesn't slip on the buckle. A full size 1911, loaded, must be around 3 pounds so I don't know if it will sag or not.

Hey, while this is a great belt and I'm still very happy with mine. I would classify this as more of a fashion belt rather than function. Because it doesn't have the velcro locking buckle like some of the rigger's belts it tends to work loose and sag under the weight of even a medium framed pistol like a Glock 19 worn outside the waistband. Since you mentioned carrying a 1911 I assume you would be looking at using an outside the waistband holster as well. I think you would probably be happier with either a good thick leather belt or a rigger's belt. Hope this helps.

Mine stays tucked up underneath the seat. I haven't had any problems with it sagging down.

The holster itself does not take up much room it is nice and compact it's the gun that's big. I normally wear Size 32 and if I have a belt on I have to loosen the belt about 3 notches. I find it to be uncomfortable to conceal carry bcs even tthough its a sub compact its really big.

My full size 1911 fits perfectly. I suspect yours would be too loose and not "lock" in place. You could take it to a gun store that carries the Fobus and try it out, though.

My 1911 is a full size Sig Sauer Spartan edition, and one can hear a scrachy noise that it appears to come from the barrel, when the slide is being pulled back and also when the slide its released from that position. For that reason I decide to stop the use of the compensator. Too bad because on my opinion it looks terrific with it.

Pick whichever size shirt you normally wear - the T needs to be snug so the weight of the pistol doesn't make that side of the shirt hang down. Use the large holder - the small holster is too small for a 45. I normally wear XL shirt - tried the 2X T and the arm holes were too big - gun hangs too low. I like my XL - got used to it as I wore it more.

No issue with any kind of collaspe, this is a very sturdy holster that retains my full size 1911 yet allows for a smooth draw and return(follow the break in instructions)

I cant imagine any activity causing your weapon to bounce out of this holster. Unless your vigorous activity includes being upside down I wouldn't worry. I've never had an issue with the sights dragging on my xds 45.

It is taller but fits fine on my glock 22 with a level 2 blackhawk and spend its nights in my night stand. I carry it with no issues or snags. It is great for either ccw or the home.

It holds my Colt 1911-mark70, Glock 27, SW 469 no problem. Will not hold SW m-19 4" wheel gun.. should hold any auto without issue...

I can stuff my wife's glock 19 in it and it zips up, though a tad snug. Would not want to pull it quick. My Sig P238 is a loose fit and should be tighter for a confident draw.

I think you'll be fine. I have an M9A in mine. The case gaps just a bit because the grips/magazine are so think. A 1911 will definitely be much thinner than mine.

I dont believe it will. My full size 1911 has play in it. I would not recommend this holster to anyone. It flops all over and does not stay against your leg. The rentemtion strap comstantly loosens itself up. Not a good holster by any means.

This holster will hold you 1911 with no problem. I have this holster its very comfortable and will purchase another. Good luck.

Yes it's very sturdy. I bought this for my husband last Christmas and he wears his everyday. He has a Springfield 1911.

it held my my extended slide 1911 just fine, and my 45 is quite larger than any glock i have ever seen. but then again, i have never held a glock 30 before.

I've carried a Sig Sauer P229 in it. I hope you can use that as a comparison, since the size difference isn't that great.
