You can easily modify the SERPA 1911 holster to accomodate full-railed guns. On the bottom-rear of the holster you'll see where the half-rail slot (that comes in the holster) ends. Just take a saw/cut-off tool/hot knife and cut a notch (about 1") from the end of that rail slot to the bottom of the gun. Use sand paper etc. to clean up the cut and you'll have a serpa that any 1911 will fit into. The bottom inch of the rail just sticks of from the whole.

I carry my TRP that way 100%

As others have stated, the SERPA fits most 1911's that do not have a rail. If your gun does have a rail, it is a fairly easy thing to do a slight modification to the holster so your railed gun will fit very nicely.


The SERPA is a VERY well designed holster. To manipulate the release "button" your trigger finger HAS to be in the proper position that will put your finger ABOVE the trigger guard up on the frame. If you have an ND when drawing from a SERPA it is YOUR fault, not the holsters fault nor any BS design flaw. YOU moved your trigger finger into position to operate the trigger before the gun is on target.

Train with the holster with an empty gun and LEARN to draw properly. In my opinion, if you have an ND with a SERPA, you would end up having one with any other kind of holster you use because you are careless and don't really know what you are doing when drawing your gun.

I have met Yeager, he has talked to our TFA chapter once or twice. IMO he isn't that good of an instructor, is really full of himself and is nothing more than a boastful fool. I was not impressed with him AT ALL. If he comes to talk to our TFA chapter again, I will be sure to pass on that meeting. He basically doesn't know what he is talking abouty and he does a dis-service to those who put their trust in him to train them.

Just my opinion, but I feel pretty strongly about it.

I have had to draw for real twice this year unfortunately, very stressful situations both. Both were draws done from my SERPA and neither time did I have an ND. Both were with a Glock 23, no external safety, just the big safety between my ears, and it was engaged as it always is.
