Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

Sorry, friend, it was not my intention to insult you, for me it was just a "Style question" and also just "my opinion on style, not on execution". A German Luger would not look good in that holster either, IMHO. All that said, very nice holster, friend. What's most important is that you like it.

LOL, it's like the little skinny guy in the wide-brimmed fedora or the giant guy in the very narrow-brimmed fedora, it's just opinion LOL. I once picked up some folks from Indiana at Logan International. As we approached the Sumner Tunnel, the traffic bottlenecked, they said, Is the traffic always this bad I said No, this isn't bad, BUT WHEN IT GETS TO BE 5 O'clock, FORGET ABOUT IT They both started laughing. I had no idea what was so funny. After a while of prodding them, they said we would never use that expression in Indiana. I said What expression?  "Forget about it", no one would ever say that in Indiana.  LOL I took them to Regina Pizza in the North End of Boston for lunch, then to Caffe Vittoria, for coffee, now that was funny! LOL.

I'm kind of new to 1911s, maybe 5 years or so. At first a toe loop style holster looked odd to me. But really, in 1911 it would have been quite natural to copy cat or modify existing revolver style holsters.

I'm really not a fan of modern holsters anyway, so I'm quite happy for mine too ride in toe loops.
