Hey Addicts, need recommendations for a decent paddle holster, for my 1911 Gov't size gun. Strictly for slipping on/off, to and from range, 4wheeling, etc...Thanks!

Safariland ALS or the Bianchi model 82. I don't particularly care for the Serpa-style index finger release, but to each his own. I own (and wear) both of the holsters above. The release on the ALS is slightly easier to work, but the Bianchi holds MUCH more closely to the body and conceals much more cleanly.

I suppose that the paddle may be either inside or outside you pants but still over you belt.

I have observed and found that having the paddle inside your pants and over a secure, rather stiff belt works best. I have several from different manufacturers and they all work best in this manner.
