Ed in Tx Report post Posted August 11, 2018 The post immediately below yours that says "Holster Patterns" would be a good place to look. jlsleather.com has posted several different patterns that available on his web page. Modifying a pattern for IWB use is fairly easy. If your uncle is right handed use a right hand pattern and put whatever method of attachment ( belt loops or clip) on the outside face.

Thank you without the gun or a mold gun a pattern isn't going to do you much good...for the colt 1911 I'd buy a cheap airsoft pistol rather than buying the blue gun, if you plan on making more of these, you could consider the blue gun, but for a one n done holster, $15 is not too bad... https://www.amazon.com/BBTac-BT-1911A1-Spring-Airsoft-250-FPS/dp/B004B1MTSK/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1534043992&sr=8-5&keywords=colt+1911+co2+airsoft+pistol&dpID=41WlCQx590L&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch and use the @JLSleather pattern for the 4.25" colt... http://www.jlsleather.com/sdm_downloads/1911-holster-pattern-pancake-commander-4-25-inch/ and follow the directions for converting the pancake owb to iwb http://www.jlsleather.com/sdm_downloads/leather-holster-pattern-making-basic-iwb/ That should be all you'd need...post up pics when it's done so we can see how it turns out.
