Bianchi Professional

1911packer · August 28th, 2007, 11:49 PM

I'm looking for an IWB holster for my PPK/S and have just about settled on the Bianchi Professional (Model 100).

I like the idea of the piece of leather at the top that is supposed to keep the hammer end away from the meat.

Anyone have any experience with this holster?

If you have "settled" what were your other choices? At what position do you carry IWB?

For me, the Bianchi Professional (Model 100), was a no go. I tried using it with my G27 and I just did not care for it. It would rock around, and the mouth of the holster would close up when I drew the pistol making it difficult to reholster the gun. I think I still have the holster. If the size fit, I would make you a good deal on it!

Had the model 100 - don't have it now. Look at a Crossbreed or MTAC or maybe a Tucker Leather the Answer. Others love Milt Sparks VM2 - but you will wait a fair amount of time for that one. Just some ideas.

I have the Bianchi Pro 100 for both my G26 and KT P-32. They get occasional use.

Pros:
Easy on/off
Pistol rides low on the belt
Sweat guard
Very concealable

Cons:
Metal clip wears on furniture/clothes
Mouth is not reinforced

Thanks all. Good, solid answers from real-world experience.
Ront - thanks for the offer but I need a size 9.

NP, I think mine is a 10, but don't quote me on that.
