I have become a big fan of Ross Leather, and I have three holsters made by them. I carry my 1911 in this:
CCWSUPPLY.BIZ - Ross M17 CTU Agent IWB Holster

It is the most comfortable IWB I own, and I am getting ready to buy one each for my other guns.

I do drool over MTAC and Crossbreed holters too though, but I have not had the pleasure of trying one of them.

Try TT Gunleather. Great holsters with a 6-8 week wait and well worth it!

Lots of options out there...

Whatever you get, I would advise you to get one that has belt-loops made for a specific width. In other words, you want the holster loops to fit your belt exactly so there's not any "slop." A good fit ensures maximum stability and concealment.

don't buy one that "fits up to ___" unless you're going to wear the largest width belt the holster loops will accomodate.

+1 on the Galco USA. I carry a G27 in a USA every day. I have a Milt Sparks VM II on order (I already have one for my 4" XD 45 Service and I love it). The Galco is much cheaper and works very well but the quality and craftsmanship in MS products has me sold. I'm sure I'll buy a VM II moving forward for every gun I buy and plan to carry.

Just my 2 cents....

If you don't want to wait try High Noon Holsters. I bought the stocking item "split decision" and received it within a very few days and not bad for the price and turnaround. Something like that will get you by until you can decide on what holster you want to wait for. I personally like my K&D Defender as an every day holster for my 23.
