Desantis 1911

by Phillip, from MO, United States Written on April 13, 2019
Seems to be really high quality. Very good looking and comfortable so far. Fits snug enough I'm not worried the pistol will fall out. I wish color was a little darker brown instead of reddish. I would buy again.

Excellent holster

by Peter7522, from ID, United States Written on November 23, 2018
Fit my pistol well. Rides on my belt comfortably. Covers the trigger and barrel to give the gun good protection. I would recommend for any full size pistol for woods carry or open carry. Would purchase again.

Desantis Thumb Break Scabbard Holsters

by lefty, from CA, United States Written on June 9, 2016
Excellent quality holster..I am left handed and find it difficult to find left handed natural leather holsters.
The thumb snap is very sturdy and crisp, stitching is excellent. Price was fair. I would not normally buy a gun product from a non gun shop but they seem to have the stock I was looking for. They wanted me to write more I said what I wanted to say..
Pros:
  • Quality, Price, Service and Fit
Cons:
  • None

DeSantis Quality

by JLC, Verified Owner from IA, United States Written on June 4, 2016
Another good DeSantis holster. I chose this model to carry my 1911 in the field and so I wanted something with positive retention. The three slots also allow both strong-side and off-side carry and I normally carry this off-side. The gun rides high and tight on either side.
Pros:
  • Quality, versatility, modifiable, adjustable, heavy load bearing capacity
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Concealed carry with jacket or vest
Would recommend: Yes

Exactly what I was looking for

by Chris D., from NY, United States Written on April 19, 2016
This holster was just a bit tight at first. Once I just left my weapon in it for a few nights it loosened up perfectly. This is exactly what I hoped it would be. Well made, quality product. The snap at the top is a well made secure closure. There is a tension screw at the bottom for a fit adjustment. I would recommend the product to anyone looking for a quality 1911 holster.
Pros:
  • snug fit
  • Qualtiy
  • Well-made.
  • Great price/value
Cons:
  • None

Great quality and value

by Opd754, Verified Owner from NY, United States Written on August 9, 2015
I have used several DeSantis produts over the years. Both on, and off duty. The quality remains high in both their nylon and leather products. I wanted an off duty holster in something besides black, but didn't want to give up the qualilty. Like most leather holters, this one required a short break in period. But once it was broken in, it's very comfortable, and yet keeps the firearm secure and quickly accessed when needed. The lining, while costing a bit more, does help protect the finish of the gun, and for me, worth it the extra price.
Pros:
  • comfortable to wear
  • secures firearm
  • firearm accessable when needed
Cons:
  • So far, I haven't found any
Best Used for:
  • Off duty carry
Would recommend: Yes

DeSantis Right Hand - Black - Unlined - Thumb Break Scabbard (3 Slot) 001BA21Z0

by DrGramilla, from MS, United States Written on August 26, 2014
This holster is perfect for my Officer’s Model 1911 .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol. I would not hesitate to recommend this holster to anyone. The weapon is easy to holster, and is easy to extract. When the weapon is holstered, there is no way to access the trigger guard (let alone the trigger), so safety is built right into the product.
Would recommend: Yes
