Here is my 1911 holster design. Notice the strap that goes over the back of the firearm? Goes right over the hammer so you carry "cocked and locked" Without worrying about your sidearm discharging. Even if your trigger is accidentally pulled your hammer will fall against the leather preventing it from hitting your firing pin. We have spent many hours out at the range perfecting this. It also has a metal clip on the back for quick belt attachment. Questions comments or concerns are always welcome.

Beautiful leatherworking on a beautiful gun! I'm more of a polymer and Kydex kinda guy myself, but I do appreciate the classics.
One question, though - Is that when the gun is all the way in the holster? The trigger is still exposed. If the retention strap gets bumped or the strap breaks off, that could eventually lead to an AD.

The retention strap is a heavy grade leather we have bumped it dropped it slammed it thrown it and have had no discharges. We use snap caps to test and not one time has the hammer hit. This model the trigger area is exposed to prevent the leather from discharging it. HOWEVER. I fully recommend using the safety lever on the side. I have a co partner of mine who works with kydex and is very good with it. We can do both. I fully recommend G code holsters for your kydex needs. I carry one of my vest.
I've got a custom IWB rig for my carry piece - It's by a company called Cleveland's Holsters. They were one of the few companies that would make something for the Steyr C9-A1 with a laser/light on it. I definitely haven't invested the time into learning leatherworking like you have.
I'm still a little iffy on exposed triggers in holsters due to my IDPA background (IDPA rules require the trigger to be covered for safety reasons), but if you've tested it and it's safe, far be it from me to tell you what to use. Besides, my gun doesn't have a manual safety.
