Have you done any holsters for the Browning 1911-380 yet? I believe it is identical to the 1911-22 (both are here at Casa Hoot and I see no difference).
This would be for Miss Melodie. Thinking along the lines of a strong side OWB carry. Prolly the Cuda or your best suggestion. No flaps or straps...plain and simple, utilitarian...maybe something "simply rugged".

I have not spent loads of time with it yet.

Miss Meodie REALLY likes it and that's what was important. She shoots well with it.
I find the trigger a bit "crunchy" and the rear sight looks like molded plastic which seems out of place at this price point. It works but I can see an upgrade in its' future. Magazines are unobtanium at this point and it only comes with one...another oddity at the price point, IMO.
We'll play with it a bit more this summer, try some different bullet shapes, see if the trigger smooths out any and report back.

The fact that Melodie has asked about carrying this has me enthused.
