I was thinking about a Versamax 2, but they are way backordered. I have a Kimber ProCarry in the commander size.
The High Noon tailgater looks pretty good.

I'm a big fan of the Milt Sparks Summer Special 2. Brownell's usually has 1911 govt and Commander sized SS-II holsters in stock for a reasonable price.
Can't go wrong with Milt Sparks. The 55BN and NLG are excellent for outside belt carry for IWB the summer special is tops. Don't forget a good belt! It makes all the difference in the world. Milt also makes excellent belts for this purpose.

i like the hybrid iwb holsters. they have leather against your skin but kadex (spelling?) for gun retention. There very comfortable and sure are easier to reholster guns in.
take a look at FIST holsters website. A friend just bought one and it is rpetty well made and is very thin kydex.
For my Glock27 I have been using a Bianchi #100. It is a clip-on IWB.
I like it enough that I just ordered one for my S&W m60.
Another vote for Milt Sparks Summer Special. Alternately, I like the #77 Tortilla or #88 Street Combat from El Paso Saddlery.
There are a lot of good ones out there these days.
For IWB, I prefer Spark's SS-2 (cowhide) or Kramer's IWB #2 (horsehide). The SS-2 sits lower and the loops are changeable and available for different width belts. The belt loops of the IWB #2 are permanately attacched and adjustable as well. I just waited about two months for a new IWB #2 - pretty quick for custom.
For OWB, I've been using Mernickles PS6's and they are doing well.
For kydex, Blade Tech for IWB, or Side Armor for OWB.

I prefer Kydex for all my carry guns; all inside the waistband holsters. Go to www.comp-tac.com and check them out. They have great delivery and great customer service.

I just can't get comfortable with an IWB. I get too much print, with either a revolver or my (ex)-Glock 36.
I carry my Colt DS in a plain old Bianchi, with a vest or sweatshirt over it. Works just fine for 9 months of the year. I'm considering an ankle holster and something like a Ruger LCP for the other 3 months (T-shirt weather).
I have 3 holsters from Wild Bill's. He's a retired cop in NC and does great work at a very fair price.
