Can anyone offer a suggestion for a good quality leather owb belt holster for the Browning Hi Power?? Would prefer one with a retention loop but have been looking at the Galco combat master as I have not found exactly what I am looking for.

Google LOBO Holsters and check out his Avenger. Great all purpose rig thats been around for a long time. His prices are great!

If you want a real nice one I recommend either TT Gunleather or HBE Specialty Leatherworks. Great holsters from two fine gents that'll last a lifetime.

Thanks for the info on LOBO holsters. That avenger does look pretty close to what I am looking for.

If you buy a quality holster you do not need a retention strap. These are Milt Sparks Mirage belt slides; they are simple but effective:

Don't know much about OWB, but Milt Sparks builds one fine IWB holster. #1 in my book.

I just bought a Browning Hi Power and from past experience knew right where to order a holster:

I could not agree more that is my CZ on his home page in an Elite DDO.
I think it is just about perfect, and your Hi Power is very very close in dimensions to my CZ 75B

Plug for HBE and TT. You CANNOT go wrong with either one. As was stated earlier a quality hoster does not need a retention snap for everyday carry. If you are a camper, hunter or hiker a snap holster will give extra retention for rigorous activities.

The Avenger from LOBO is 1/2 the cost of the holsters that HBE and TT make and the quality shows. IMO you get what you pay for, but that Avenger will last a long time and is a great holster for the money.

OD made a great point. A HP will fit in a 1911 holster.

Holster for Browning Hi-Power

Yes, almost any holster made for a full-sized 1911 will fit a Hi-Power. I used a Galco NSA (Mk 1 version, not the poorly-designed Mk. 2!) for many years.

Right now, I'm testing De Santis 'Intruder' tuckable model for a magazine article. Let you know how that works out ...

Browning Hi-Power Holster

Sorry, I didn't see that you were looking for a holster with a "suicide strap". To be honest, unless you're a cop or uniformed security, or go in for advanced gymnastics, a well-made holster, made to your gun's measurements, doesn't need any extra retention devices.

I carried my Browning for years in a 1911 holster without any retention straps, and never had any "fallout"!

Browing HP is on Fist's gun list...look in here... HOLSTERS :hand10:

I found that my early grey coloured 1911 Serpa holster would jam on the end of the hi-power's takedown lever.

HBE Com III is a great IWB option (shown here with mag/flashlight pouch):

For OWB, here's the Regulator, from UBG:
