So I'm looking for a holster, and double mag pouch (or 2 singles) for my new 1911, I primarily intend it for OC when I want to dress up a bit, I.E. formal/business wear for things like social functions, protests, voting, and government meetings. Basically it's not for everyday carry, but I would still like it to hold the pistol, and mags securely, and be decently functional just in case, but it's primary mission will be to look nice. (My normal holster is a level 2 retention holster similar to a SERPA.)
I would like brown leather molded to the pistol (it's a full size government model), and ideally it should have a forward "FBI" cant, and I would prefer no thumb break (They don't look very nice, and they drive me crazy, and to my mind are just one more thing to potentially foul up a draw stroke.). It goes without saying it should be OWB, but I would prefer a pancake style, but that's not set in stone.
The magazine carrier should be flap less (I HATE FLAPS!), and match the holster.
The problem though is that I am on a VERY tight budget, also I don't want to drop a lot of money on a holster I'm only going to use occasionally. Ideally I don't want to spend more than $60-$70 for both holster, and mag pouch combined. I'm finding finding anything leather in that price range to be very difficult. Got any suggestions?
