C&G Holsters Covert OWB — Black Kydex Belt-Loop Holster, Fits 1911 4.25" / Wilson Combat EDC X9, Right Hand (1856100 • UPC 840339718562)

Fast, consistent, and concealment-forward. The C&G Holsters Covert OWB is a right-hand outside-the-waistband holster built from precision-molded black Kydex to fit 1911 Commander-length (4.25") pistols and the Wilson Combat EDC X9. Its belt-loop wings pull the gun close to the body for reduced printing, while a rigid mouth and crisp retention deliver a smooth, straight-line draw for training days, everyday carry, or plainclothes use.

Why Choose the Covert OWB for 1911 4.25" / EDC X9

• Pistol-specific molding: CAD-modeled Kydex closely follows the Commander-length 1911 and EDC X9 profile for secure lockup, full trigger-guard coverage, and repeatable indexing.

• Concealment-first ride: Belt-loop wings keep the grip tucked tight for minimal printing beneath T-shirts, polos, or light jackets.

• Crisp, confident retention: Tuned friction retention provides an audible “click” on holstering and snag-free draw under time pressure.

• Duty-grade durability: Rugged .08" Kydex resists sweat, heat, and daily wear while preserving shape for one-hand reholstering.

• All-day comfort: Dehorned edges and a smooth body-side face reduce hot spots when sitting, bending, or driving.

• Training-ready geometry: A defined sight channel and typically open muzzle help clear taller sights and shed debris for fast, consistent presentations.

Performance You’ll Notice

• Faster draw stroke: Rigid mouth and defined sight channel support a clean, straight-line draw without dragging the front sight.
