Down the line a bit, I found some beautiful 1911 pistols from Rock River Arms, which shot just as good as they looked and felt. And believe me, they looked great and felt even better.

Next up I ran across Blackhawk, showing off their CQC (Close Quarters Concealment) holsters. These carbon-fiber holsters retain the gun via a small hook that holds the trigger guard, and they retain them very well. To release you simply lay your trigger finger along the release button and give it a press as you lift the gun from the holster. The result is that you come out of the holster ready to fire, with a proper grip and your trigger finger properly positioned.
