Since it was brought back to life, I'll add.
I inherited a Beretta M71 that came with a leather shoulder holster. I carried that for years and had my 1911 at home. I realized that I wanted to not carry that 1960's piece that much since I wanted to pass it along to one of my kids. I think I came across this thread and read others about CC.
I bought an Alien Gear Holster for the 1911 and Sig P238, I carried it with a new leather belt at the beginning of 2014.
I used these in rotation and then ended up getting a 92SF by the end of that same year.
I realized that I had been buying a new leather belt about once a year and during this summer this year, sprang for a SlideBelts Survival Belt which is costly but well made and very stiff. We'll see how it holds up, but in the 6 months that I've had it, it is still as stiff as when I got it.
Sometime since 2015, I bought a G19... it was from Frontline Arms here in Beaverton before Casey got hurt and I've got that in the rotation.
I started out with a great IWB holster and have bought more of the same. I can carry any of them and forget that I have them on. Today I was trying on jackets at the Levi's outlet, I had my G19 and wore a mock turtle neck shirt. No one was the wiser. Tucks in real nice and doesn't print.
I realize that a superior belt is necessary and I think I've found one.
