Safariland Concealment and STI

[cybrosh]

Anyone using any concealment holster with their STI's? According to what I've read in their site('Will fit' section), there are 3-or actually 2...models for STI/SVI - 1911 with rails(56), 1911 without rails(53), and STI Tactical(similar model to the 1911 with rails=53).

Does anyone have any idea what a 2011 standard 5", with full dust covers, fits?

Cheers!

I would contact FIST or Comp-tac, they actually listen to customers, will reply promptly, make great products. The Safariland holsters I have tried sucked for concealed carry, specifically the 5186, its too tight, and jams in the holster if gun doesnt come out at perfect angle.

You might want to look at some of the Blade-Tech for the full dust cover 2011s.

Hey guys,

Thanks for replying.

I have a comp-tac for my P7M13, and was quite impressed with their customer service and the holster, but unfortunately, due to the holster's hi-ride, and the p7's weight being concentrated on the grip and magazine housing, the holster tends to lean to the right side(I am right)no matter what belt I use.

BladeTech have been most helpful, they've already told me, that I get a refund if it doesn't fit when I return the holster.

Up until now, I've been using Wilson's Adjuster and was quite pleased, but I'm looking for some retention options if possible.

I guess I'll have to test some holsters out there....
