I don't know how I missed that picture!

I remember kidding him about not having spent the extra money to buy a whole holster.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
IIRC, he had the one .45 version that he started "accessorizing" early on, and used it competitively for some time. He paid something like $300 Canadian originally, and likely put more than that in parts over time. The "Then and Now" photo addresses the changes. Thumbs Up

He probably also had that 9mm version (NP29) at a later date. Shrug

Here's photo of his IPSC rig with the Norinco .45

Image below from MikeDavies - Image Title: IPSC rig
Image Info: This is my IPSC rig that I use for shooting in USPSA/IPSC Limited competitions. The pistol is my trusty Norinco 1911A1, and the holster is a Safariland 010 Tactical, which allows for a very speedy and sure draw, while securing the weapon when not in use. I use the velcro ''inner belt'' which goes through the pants'' belt loops, and then ''apply'' the stiff outer belt to the velcro. It makes for a very firm belt and holster combination that stays put when drawing and moving. That''s 58 rounds of .45ACP 185gr JHP''s hanging on the belt, folks...I''ve found that takes care of most problems that an IPSC stage can present, and then some.
