| Anyone have any tips with the C-tacs? I was given one by my boss to evaluate. The first thing I noticed is that the commander sized holster is a good inch too long for my 4" 1911 and was wondering if this was common. Another thing is, how the hell do you get this thing on quickly? My VMII was a breeze to put on but this thing is a complete pain in the ass, also the back sides and edges rub me and i was thinking of using moleskin to solve this. |
| I actually think my CTAC is easier to put on than my VMII. I just slip the clips over the belt instead of threading the belt through the clips. I agree though about some excess material. There is a bit of extra kydex at the top that I'm thinking about trimming off since it pokes me in the side sometimes. |

The holsters are usually a little longer, but not an whole inch longer than the barrel. I find the CTAC quick to get on; quicker than my VMII. I cram the holster in my pants at 3:00 and attach the back clip first, then the front clip. I wear mine at 3:00 which minimizes rubbing, but I've heard of people sticking mole skin on the back. |
Where would we be without Internet searches? |
