    I recently received my IWB pancake kit from Old Faithful holsters and I am extremely pleased.

    First of all you can't beat the price on these. They are a small family business which always makes me lean towards spending money with them first. They are incredibly good quality, include a ton of extra screws and spacers and have a comprehensive tutorial online on how to assemble the kit.

    It was super simple to assemble. Can you use a hammer and a screwdriver? then you can put this together and custom fit it to your liking.

    This is the most comfortable holster I've had on my side and it's not even broken in and formed to my body yet.

    A problem I had with my previous IWB was I couldn't get to my wallet easily because it was too low. I simply adjusted the height of the Old Faithful to ride higher so i could easily get to it.

    I would recommend sanding the edges on the back of the leather for even more comfort.

    My only complaint with it is probably my fault. It took nearly 3 weeks from the time I ordered it for it to get to me. I admit, I was DYING to get my hands on it and was really impatient.

    I highly suggest you give this company a chance. You won't be disappointed.

    I bought one for my 5" 1911. No question, it's a nice looking holster. I've put mine together, but haven't carried with it yet. I'll post my thoughts after I've given it a trial run or two.

    I've been using mine for a few months now . It has worked very well.

    Customer service is good too. My holster had one hole that was mis-punched. They sent me a whole other kit to replace it.

    I've been eyeballing these for an IWB holster for my M&P fullsize. I'm glad that the consensus is good. I was wondering about the fit and finish. I'll definitely move it up on my buy list.

    You can buy a piece of scrap from them for 5 bucks, and order their hardware kit and prefit kydex.

    They are a good deal. They also give mil/LEO discounts if my memory isn't failing.
