New Kusiak Leather AIWB first impressions


Recommended Posts

Posted

So I recently added a S&W PC 1911 commander and want to use it as a daily carry. A good holster is probably the biggest part of that equation of carrying a firearm comfortably on a regular basis so I went looking for something high quality. I remembered a member here posting a Kusiak that he had for a 2011 style pistol and being impressed with the minimal design and quality look so I ordered one up. Luckily they had an American IWB with a carbon fiber wing, setup for a 4.25 1911 in their in stock ready to ship section. Holster arrived exactly a week to the day after ordering, shipped USPS. It came in a plain box, packaged in a draw string bag with a card that has break in instructions. Initial impressions are super high quality, thick leather, with a very tight fit that Ive come to expect from custom leather holsters. They always break in to the perfect amount of retention when they start out super tight. I wrapped the pistol in a grocery bag, unloaded of course, and Ive been wearing it around the house since. It has already started to form to my body and get more comfortable. I did use a Nike air insole for a wedge, Ive tried several different wedges at different times and this insole has rode the back of at least 4 holsters and works like a charm. I use velcro to mount it so it can be easily removed and no permanent modifications. I plan to carry with it every day for the next month and Ill do an update at that point to let everyone know how its holding up.
