Sidearms & Scatterguns Dan Wesson Specialist - Off the shelf holster

Please tell me your getting leather? ?

While I use a good bit of kydex for carry, a cherry 1911 deserves to be firmly held in quality snd classic leather until time for use.
Like a good sammich maker....?

I have a guy I use locally, sweetwater saddlery. He is a long time shooter and class act.

I use a variety of kydex depending on use. For average stuff and AIWB CCW, I Really like Longs Shadow Holsters. Vet owned, local to me, and quality goods.

Others suggest Alessi (sp) a lot for a good comfortable and quality holsters.

I’m looking for an off the shelf option for a holster for my Dan Wesson Specialist.

Are you running a light on it? I’m running an x300u on mine and the only options I could really find were safariland and tier 1 concealment. Just gonna make my own.

I don’t have a light on it all the time. I may just wind up ordering one from Wilson Combat.
they stock holsters for the railed models.
 
I really like these Tucker holsters. Leather backing, leather lined Kydex outer shell. Very nicely done.
