Looking for an iwb holster for my 5 inch 1911 and saw that pic related seemed like a good choice. Anyone have experience with Galco kydex iwb holsters? I'm looking to conceal carry. Obviously I have a large gun that will be more difficult to conceal and I am aware of that. Concealment wasn't my primary intent when I bought the gun I simply want to have the option.
Also general holster & carry thread.
Bump for Washington
What type of holster do you prefer? There's a pretty clear difference in comfort between IWB and OWB holsters, though if you're set on IWB I'd say go ahead and spend the money on a quality holster from either Comp-tac or stealth gear.
I carry in an alien gear cloak tuck and its pretty comfortable. The gun is slim enough that I wear all the same clothes and usually forget its there. I had to adjust the ride on the holster to as high as it could go; if it rides low then I feel it a lot when I sit and its quite uncomfortable. The only thing is that when I stand up I kind of have to pull my shirt down to make sure it doesn't catch on the grip, other than that its fine.
I carry at about 4:30

I prefer iwb so I'll check out your recommendations, thanks!

Good stuff, thanks I'll look into it.

I'd say that the holster that >>29706949 has recommended is a good place to start if you like the hybrid holster setup, if you like that wide of a holster, then I'd say you'd really like a stealthgear onyx, they seem to be built from really nice materials, if you don't mind the price.

After many years and quite a few holsters I finally found Don Hume. One of the cheapest brands but it does what I want and wears the best at whatever cost.
I carry a Steyr M9 in an Alien Gear Cloak Tuck 3.0.
The neoprene backing is very comfortable and it conceals just fine under the proper shirts. ~$50 well spent imo

Holy shit dude that thing rides so high you might as well hang a sign around your neck that says "I'm carrying a hand cannon" in big red letters.
IWB is called that for a reason. It rides with the gun IN the waistband. At least try something that will conceal the trigger guard. Right now it looks almost like you're using a left handed SERPA holster tucked in on your right side.
If you're looking for comfort try giving pic related a bit of a look. Desantis intruder IWB holsters cover the gun and ride wider to keep it from giving so much bruising and hanging funny as you move around.

Buy once, cry once.
Best $100 ever spent. Most comfortable and breathable iwb holster I've tried, and I've tried many.

Garrett industries and milt sparks. Both are great.
