Classic Design

Have not broken in yet. Holster is well made classic design but is not 100 percent authentic to original. There are less rivets and the rivets are not like the original. The holster has a small puncture mark (stitching needle?) near the closing button. Leather seems looser than my original and some of the stitching stops where I think it could have gone a bit further based on my observation of an original stitching. The block insert seems smaller than the one in my original holster. Thickness and color are fantastic. Would have liked to have my leather tie down put into a classic hangman's noose during assembly but realize cost might have been a factor there. The closest competition wanted 2x the price of yours and not many companies even make this holster anymore, especially with US Leather and labor. Overall excellent quality for the price.

1911 GI Holster

This is real deal here. No flimsy LV leather here. It is stiff (giggidy) right out of the box but forms nicely to your pistol
