Last summer, Springfield Armory released an awesome new pistol, the Range Officer Elite Operator<\/a>, a 9mm 1911 with a Picatinny rail. The gun has been fantastic and the added weight of the rail really absorbs recoil. The only problem is finding a holster for a rail-equipped 1911 is like finding Waldo with pepper spray in your eyes. It ain’t easy.<\/p>\n

This week, I found Waldo!\u00a0 It’s BLACKHAWK!’s new, belt-slide holsters!\u00a0 Crafted from handmade-Italian leather, each holster has a unique finish, a testament to the quality and craftsmanship.\u00a0 They are double stitched and come with a lifetime warranty.<\/p>\n

The model I tested was the 3 Slot Pancake<\/a>, which is aptly suited for either straight-up or canted carry. It is a thumb-break style with a snap; quick to deploy but also\u00a0secure enough for any conditions. The holster feels nice on the hip and against the body, and distributes the weight of the full-sized pistol perfectly.<\/p>\n

The gun-holster fit was tight initially, but that is to be expected from a new leather holster. A little bit of wear and this thing is set for a lifetime of service. MSRP $99.95.<\/p>\n
