Really good luck with Green Force Tactical for OWB.

I didn't get too specific because I want to know what all my options are. It's a RIA Tac FS. The problem I run into is not many (if any) manufacturers list RIA. But they aren't the only ones who make them with a rail. Particularly safariland.

Didn't specify a price because I want to see as many options as I can. I really don't want or need a duty holster, but if that's my best option, it is what it is. In the age of a million and one holster makers, someone somewhere has had to have designed something.

Also, anyone with personal experiences are always welcome to be heard from.

For good OWB holsters, I’d look into:

G-Code
LS Holsters
Hammer Armament
Red Hill Tactical
BladeTech
QVO
Safariland

just to name a few.

as suggested before (might have missed answer) security level...that changes everything

I’d look up a custom kydex maker. Fox Valley Custom Kydex makes great stuff and can do custom imaging on the kydex. So the options are endless

I thought I saw recently that crossbreed now makes holsters for the tlr1 and the tlr6 I believe

It “should” fit any holster that lists a full rail 1911.
very nice pistol.

Take a look at Tier 1 Concealed:
MORA or SPARA. They have configurations for 1911's with TLR-1 options.

I have their AXIS SLIM IWB holster for my Colt Combat Unit Rail .45 ACP which I appendix carry and I like it very much.

Tier 1 gets my vote also for OWB concealment. The mora and spara are very well made

I just got a Level 2 from Dara for a G20 build I’m doing. It seems to be well constructed and worth a look. I haven’t handled any of their other offerings, but am impressed with the one I got.
