Made this earlier this week and used it at today's Steel Shoot. Worked out pretty well. Good retention and it held together! Next up, a OD and black holster for my 1911...

Nice. I recently put one together using belt loops I bought from Raven Concealment. They're pretty robust, but not cheap.

Heh, thanks. Borrowed heavily from Raven, I confess.

Home made belt loops came out pretty good as well.

Very nice. I made a few self-aligning jigs for turning out belt loops out of .128 kydex.

I note that the back side of your holster covers up your magazine release. No trouble with releasing the mag as the gun clears the holster?

Not as yet, but thanks for the heads-up! And I really, really like those jigs!
