Carry a full-size classic with modern comfort and concealment. The C&G Holsters Covert IWB is engineered specifically for 5-inch 1911 pistols and built from premium black Kydex for uncompromising retention, a clean draw, and day-long comfort. This right-hand, inside-the-waistband holster uses a robust belt clip and a slim, de-horned profile to minimize printing under everyday clothing—whether you carry at appendix or strong-side.
Why Choose the Covert IWB for Your 1911 (5")
Precision-formed shell: Custom-molded around 5" 1911 slides and frames for exact fit, secure lockup, and a consistent reholster.
Serious concealment, slim profile: Minimal bulk and a carefully cut sweat guard help the big 1911 disappear under light cover garments.
Confident retention: Tunable retention screws deliver that positive “click” so the gun stays put until you draw.
Rigid & repeatable: Kydex keeps its shape for safe one-handed reholstering and consistent training reps.
Everyday durability: Heat-, sweat-, and solvent-resistant construction stands up to long EDC cycles and range days.

Built for Real-World EDC
The 1911 remains a favorite for its trigger, ergonomics, and accuracy—now pair it with a holster designed to conceal a full-size slide. The Covert IWB’s slim footprint and strategic molding around the slide, dust cover, and trigger guard encourage a natural, full firing grip before the draw. A sweat-guard style cut (height varies by configuration) helps protect your pistol from perspiration and keeps edges off your skin for all-day comfort.
Comfort, Concealment & Control
Low-print design: Thoughtful geometry reduces hot spots while seated or bending, helping larger frames carry like compacts.
Stable draw stroke: The reinforced belt clip locks the holster in place so the holster stays put as you present the pistol.
Safe, one-handed reholster: A rigid mouth preserves holster shape to prevent collapse after the draw.
Ideal Use Cases
Daily concealed carry: Discreet solution for those who prefer the accuracy and trigger of a full-size 1911.
Appendix or strong-side: Optimized for AIWB (1–2 o’clock) or strong-side IWB (3–4 o’clock) carry positions.
Range training & qualifications: Consistent retention and geometry for repeatable practice.
Safety Note: Always ensure clothing is cleared from the holster mouth. Reholster deliberately with your trigger finger indexed high.
Setup & Tuning (Best Practices)
Choose position: Start at AIWB or strong-side IWB; adjust slightly for comfort and concealment.
Dial retention: Tighten or loosen screws until you feel a firm “click” on seating and a smooth, deliberate draw.
Pair with a proper belt: A sturdy carry belt improves stability, retention, and comfort.
Dry practice first: With an unloaded pistol, rehearse the draw and reholster to verify clearance and grip.
