Which 1911 variant is it? Which holster? Once all the guesses are in, I'll post a full view of the combo.

Just a stab in the dark but I would say a Springfield Mil spec in a Bladetech holster. I can't tell one 1911 from another.:neener:

My guess is a Charles Daly in a FIST rig.

Colt 1911 Series 70 in a G-Code (http://www.tacticalholsters.com/gcode.htm) paddle? ('Cause it looks just like mine except for the rear sight. :) )

my first impression of the holster is a fobus

Edited to add: Whoops...posted as the answer was being revealed! Great-looking combo in any case!

Second try here...

1911 by Auto-Ordnance, holster by Uncle Mike's?

Not a Springfield Mil-Spec...note the sights.

Not a Commander...you can see the end of the slide in one of the pics.

In the last pic (studio pic), the holster's the same but the gun's different...not just the grips...serration angle's are different.

Mal got the G-code holster.

Finish looks mil spec, but hammer's wrong for Auto Ordnance. The one labelled "studio pic" might be, with pachmeyer grips.

Flat mainspring housing...

Hmmm...

Ooops...Mal got it first.

Guns in the second batch of photos are different, though.

I'd say someone needs a new belt.

I've been carrying that exact rig (but with Kimber in it) to and from work and lot off-duty for nearly 2 years, now. Won't take for it.

Studio pic shows an old AutoOrdnance. The guy now has a new belt. :)

Wow. That's about the closest fitting paddle I've seen. Too bad it's kydex. Hmmm...
