Anyone use it? I have a 5" 1911 and am looking for a decent quality holster while I save my pennies for a REAL high quality holster.

Can’t give you personal experience, but from my research:
· Like you, I started with the FLETCH, but handled one and didn’t like the inside-just got an FX Suede (basically a lined FLETCH) for my HK USPC-got it on eBay for $65 delivered from Mardens Surplus (MSRP $107 + Shipping)
· In process of getting a DeSantis Thumb Break Scabbard/lined for my P229R from Holsterwear on eBay-$60 delivered, but he has to order as lined are not normally kept in stock. (MSRP $78.50 + Shipping). The DeSantis (on some models) offers 3 belt loops, which can be good/bad-allows either strong side or crossdraw use, but the bad is if you don’t want that option it’s just stuff in the way you don’t need?
· Never quite made it to ‘em (yet), but on my short list was High Noon Holsters as they use a synthetic material for the lining-suede lining can present a few problems. FLETCH equivalent at High Noon would be their Sky High, but it’s $109.95 MSRP + Shipping and I can’t find at a discount anywhere. I may end up with one later as they’re the only one I can find (of the 3 above) that makes a lined holster for one of my guns.
Just a few suggestions if you’re starting out looking at a FLETCH like I was?
‘Course, if you’re not interested in a lining, you’ve got more options than I did-I cheaped out (AFA price) since I’m looking at holsters for about 3 guns!
