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.

the full size 1911 fits nice and locks in the holster, there is a screw on the side of the holster you can tighten or losin the fit of the gun in the holster. The only problem I have is it marked up the finish on my slide.

yes without a doubt, it holds my 1911 with no problem, a small revolver like yours will easily fit.

Yes absolutely. I have worn a blackhawk holster with my full frame 1911 with no issue.

No sagging.I ended up hanging my tv and it looks amazing. Makes the tv stand look bigger.

what make? I use it to hold my Tiberius 8 paintball pistol, which is a rather large item. This holster would easily hold a model 1911. I would say this would hold a revolver. Hope I helped.

Thats a good question! I'm buying a Judge soon myself. It sure doesn't look like it's deep enough but Do keep a Kimber .45 1911 in mine with room to spare. I would compare lengths. Width wise it looks like it will fit if you cut out some of the padding. I also have a .357 revolver fits with no problem. Hope this helped you.

I have only used it once (then lost it somewhere) for 1911 frame Kimber and SIG. I suspect that if you cinch up the belt enough it will be snug. It is a solid holster for sure. Wish I could find it again.

It comes down to this: What do you normally wear? Think of it like this: If you were going to Walmart to buy a Tshirt-style undershirt to wear under your clothes-a good quality shirt, not some flimsy thing-what size would you buy if you like a snug fit? That's what you want in this. I'm a big guy; I'd normally wear a 3x, but I got a 2x in this, and it works great. If you're talking a full-sized 1911, it is going to be heavy, so you need all the hold you can get. Definitely go for the larger holster! I hope that helps.

No. The one I have at least, for my J-frame, rides high. It is perfect for just behind the strong side hip. Also fits well for cross draw in front of weak side hip. Maybe the holsters for bigger guns hang differently, but the little one is not at all suited for hanging down your leg.

It will be tight and small..I had to use my springfield xdm compact 40s&w.; 3.8 inch barrel. Because my 1911 or my 45 acp was too big...the holster is made of good quality but they made holster small..i had to break it in for about a week before it took shape and fitted well after. It's a great idea and I put a nice 320 lumen tactical flashlight (surefire) in the flashlight holder. It serves it's purpose but no way does it fit ALL handguns. I hope this helps. ..I like it and I would recommend

It has zippers on the side a snap on the top compartments and while a full sized 1911 could fit I would not advise it if removing it in a rush is a priority. A compact Kimber or such would be no problem I could see. I bought it for my wife and she likes the look of the purse and uses it as an everyday purse with a snubby.

The top is snug enough for safe retention and mine has retained its shape very well . When I holster my 1911 it always hits the mark - never a miss ! I would buy this item again without a second thought - but its made well enough that I won't have to ........ hope this helps .

I put an LC 9 and an S&W; bodyguard 380 in mine and it does good. I have not tried a 1911,it would be close if at all.

I just tried it for appendix carry. It works, however I find the best position for this particular holster is at my 4 o'clock (just past my right side pocket). So it could work for a short gun like a .380 but it could never work with my 1911.

Yes I have a glock up top and on fnx on the bottom. Glock is in a cc holster so im sure it will hold almost and avg size pistol.

Glad to help-- The top is magnetic, and a full-size 1911 would honestly be tough to pull out in an emergency; I recommend this purse more for a compact weapon. Best regards ~ Chris
