After some searching, I have been unable to find the Safariland 6004 offered in Olive Drab for the 1911 (right handed shooter).
Perhaps I am just looking in the wrong place, or have accidentally skipped over the option in my searches.
If any of you 6004 users could point me in the direction of a site that offers the holster with the said options, I would appreciate it.
Thanks in advance

They don't make a 6004 in OD for the 1911 unless it's W/Military Mount W/Beamshot Model 8800 Light. Other than that you'll have to paint a black one.

Well, that explains why I wasnt able to find one.
Thanks for the heads up Tex.
Mods, you can lock it.

They make the 6005 in OD for the 1911 which is almost the same as a 6004 but has a quick release buckle on the verticle strap.

Thanks for the heads up C.
Anyway you could link me up to a retailer that carries that specific model?

Thing is CQBR, I order most, if not all of my Tac. gear from them (pics of my FAPC to be posted when it is finished) and I called, and spoke to a rep. and she told me that they don't offer any model of the Safariland Thigh Holsters for the 1911.
I am not sure if the Rep. was really sure she knew what she was talking about, since they have the option, its just the 6004 with the light mount option, like the link you posted.
So, I found a private distributor that is giving me a good deal on the 6005, but thanks for the heads up.

Hmm... The flaw with that statement is "really sure she knew". Every time I have talked with a chick at a gun/gear company on the phone, I have gotten the wrong information. (With the exception of 1 time) Let me know how you like that 6005 though. I want to get one of those for my 1911 too.

(With the exception of 1 time) Quoted for truth. When chicks tell you that they'll "Check on it for you and call you right back", they're lying. They'll never call you back. It's like you're dating them or something...

Sounds like someone has been stood up a few times! I'm telling you www.lapolicegear.com is the place to get your safariland. There are a few chicks there that WILL call you back. I have bought half a dozen holsters from them with nothing but good luck among other things.

Yes, when I've talked to some of the ladies at LA Police Gear, they answered my questions and seemed knowledgable. Great store, and where I'm probably gonna get my Safariland.

Well, to date, with all the gear that I have ordered from DBT.com I have had little to no problems as far as customer service goes. The one representative that I have dealt with (Rosa) has been able to answer all of my detailed questions about the gear I am interested in ordering (always good to ask questions first). This is the first, and hopefully only complaint I will have with DBT.
As far as your recommendation of ordering from LAPolicegear.com, I have an order pending with them right now for a pair of 511 Boots, and I will say, their customer service is fairly decent, however, when I have called, with questions, I spoke to a guy.
Mod- I take that back about the only complaint I have about ordering from DBT. It seems to me that every time I call or email about an item, something always seems to be on back order. I dont know if it is because they are so busy, or are a relatively new company. I am sure Gentner can attest to their customer service, as he orders or has ordered several pieces of gear from them in the past.
......BTW Gentner, the FAPC is a BEAST with those plates!
