I have a dbl stack Para 1911 - many holsters should fit since the slide is the same; if carrying it will build character or give you back spasms, those are big heavy guns with 15 rounds. Add in a spare mag or two and your into real weight lifting.That is interesting, and is similar to what I'd read. I do typically feel that carrying in that middle size offers the most versatility. I guess without having tried one out I wouldn't know. The double stack para clone that is the bbr carries ok, but I've yet to find a good holster for it. So, I have a chunky subcompact (that isn't quite the same as a defender style pistol) and full size.
Ambi-safty means a thumb strap holster is unlikely to work unless specific to ambi. Leather is best. I'd avoid polymer/Kydex types, no flex. Kramer Leather is tops.
