So I have my eye on two different .45's both have rails which I like one has the 4.25" barrel length and the other a 5" barrel. Since its wet and rainy or cold and snowy up here in WA I have decide to wear a jacket made for carry instead of a holster. If I were thin and not a large framed man I would wear a cross draw style holster since I'm left handed. But being 6'5" tall and broad chested I feel the jacket will work for me since I work mostly outdoors.

So will one or the other be better suited to carry? The 5" barreled version is also a double stack.

Opinions?
