Who makes a comfortable inside the waist leather holster for a 3" barrel 1911?

comfortable, IWB and leather is a tough combination.

This is what I have for my Springfield.

Don Hume 715 inside the waist band. Around $30 I think. I find it easy to wear.

There are many leather IWB holsters on the market but they are a lot more expensive. Galco makes one that is similar but it costs $60+. Just look at the web sites of holster makers and they will have a list of holsters that fit.

Milt Sparks. There's a reason they have a 6 month backlog.

This is exactly what you're seeking:

If the link doesn't work, search for item 260279979906. Eight days 15 hrs left. It's gonna go for a lot more than the current $33.

one thing you will quickly learn is that most people with CHLs have a box full of holsters that they bought and used for a while and decided they didn't like it. They also have a drawer with various different holsters depending on how they decide to carry.

I have 3 holsters for my Glocks. One is a cheap Uncle Mikes that has a pouch for an extra magazine (only reason I bought it). I also have a Galco tuckable IWB that is currently my everyday holster. I need to find one that works better. The last one I currently have is a Galco leather ankle holster.

Finding a good holster that you like is a difficult task since most of the time you typically cannot try them out before you buy them.

Good luck

I had a Bianchi for my Glock and loved it.
