how backed up is milt sparks? does everyone get one of his holsters before his order list went insane?

It is a six month wait or so with Milt Sparks. Though sometimes you can get lucky and buy one at a reasonable price on Ebay. Just search "Milt Sparks" on Ebay and you will see some auctions. However they are usually more expensive than just waiting.

I'm a huge Milt Sparks fan but since I couldn't even put in an order with them, their new system might work well for them but for me it sucks! So since they no longer want my business, I ordered a TT Gunleather IWB for my P-220R. The wait isn't near as long. Also, UBG makes a good IWB holster. Either one will work very well for a 1911.

Both have a good following on the various forums. I wish I could see them and compare with Sparks.
I too am a Sparks fan, and think I have all the holsters I need with the two Alessi CQC/S on order. I did not think I needed any more before I ordered those two.

Regards,
Jerry

I carry a full size 1911 in the pictured CTAC holster. I have a very good gun belt and both carrying and concealing are quite easily accomplished.

The 1911 is a Kimber Eclipse!
