1911 holster for STI Trojan vs others

I tried google and the search function here but I'm an idiot. 

 

I need to order a single stack belt set up and when I went to order the holster, there was a 5" 1911 option and then an option for 5" Trojan. 

Can I not get a holster that will fit both my Springfield Loaded and my STI Trojan? Both have no rails.  I don't want to have to buy a separate holster for my backup gun. thanks in advance. 

This will be for USPSA if that matters

I've seen that too in various holsters but I think it's done so that someone with a trojan doesn't call to waste their time. In the case of a sig there's a different profile from a standard 1911 but not a trojan.

I have noticed a difference in how my Trojan fits vs my other 1911's. There is a difference in the thickness of the trigger guard of the Trojan. So I have to readjust the tension adjustment of the holster whenever I use the Trojan.

I have a Trojan and Freedom Gunworks 1911. I bought a regular 1911 holster from Red Hill Tactical and the FGW 1911 slides in and out fine. The Trojan kept getting hung up on the draw, so I ordered a Trojan holster from RHT and it comes out much smoother now. I know there is not a ton of difference, but I noticed the smoothness getting the gun out with a specific Trojan made holster.

I have a STI Trojan and Springfield RO and use a Comptac 1911 holster.  Both guns fit like it should. I think that as long as you get a traditional  5" 1911 holster you'll be set. I would recommend comptac or bladetech, I've heard great things about RHT but don't have any experience.

I'm pretty sure my 1911 holster is a simple single layer blade tech.

I have a RHT for my 2011 and it is really nice - a definite step up in rigidity and quality, but I don't feel like I need it for the lighter weight of the 1911.
