I also have a 1911 that I carry in a Fobus holster. I picked it up used for $9.
I have not had a problem with the holster staying put. It may move a little bit forward and backward during use, but it is not very noticeable.
A couple issues with the Fobus;
1) My holster doesn't seem to have a lot of weapon retention. This hasn't been a problem, yet.
2) I have noticed that the Fobus holster seems to wear a finish really fast, and in certain places. No big deal to me, but it may be to you. Any holster will wear a finish, at least to some extent.
Positives;
1) As I said, the holster remains clamped to my waist, regardless of what belt I use, yet I can easily remove the holster when ever I choose.
2) Only cost me $9. YMMV. $20-25?
3) The plastic is very durable.
4) It will accommodate all lengths of 1911s- Officers, Commander, Full size.
Take care,
John
