Precision Fit & Adjustable Retention: Built-in passive retention adjustment allows you to fine-tune the exact "click" and draw resistance to your liking. Optic & Sight Ready: Generous sight channel easily accommodates a wide variety of aftermarket iron sights and modern slide-mounted red dots. Complete Hardware Kit Included: Ships with all necessary screws, posts, and specialized spacers required for specific attachment configurations. Crucial Sizing & Ordering Notes — Please Read Slide & Compensator Fitment Guide: Standard Sizing: All of our 1911/2011 holsters are molded with a 5" slide length in mind. Threaded Barrels: If you are running a threaded barrel, select the Open Cut option to allow the barrel to pass cleanly through the muzzle end. Compensators: If your attached compensator extends past the standard 5" slide profile, you must leave a detailed note at checkout. We will trim extra material from the muzzle to allow your comp to pass through smoothly without snagging. Hardware & Maintenance: To ensure your gear never fails in the field, all mounting hardware comes pre-treated with Loctite. If you need to swap mounts or remove screws, apply light heat first to break the seal. (Note: This does not apply to the adjustable passive retention screws). Don't Toss the Spacers! Your hardware kit includes essential spacers needed for specific aftermarket mounting platforms. Keep them safe! Mounting Systems: While all mounting screws and spacers are included, the actual belt attachment platforms (like the QLS fork, RTI wheel, or Tek-Lok clip) are sold separately. Clip Options
