I know this has been asked before, but I haven't seen much too recently aside from a post just over a year ago and I think my question is a bit more specific. I feel like holsters are really hard since there are so many options and I'm trying to find the right one for me. I have a pancake style (OTG) that I'm not entirely crazy about so I don't know if I want to try the RCS. I don't know if I'm not in love with it as a pancake style, or just something from that company specifically. My only light compatible holster is from Garrett Industries that I just got. I love their IWB Silent Thunder, but I can't find a happy medium between fit/security and ease of draw for the OWB w/ light.
I want something that will be able to switch between different belt sizes (1.5" and 1.75") and MOLLE, adjustable cant would be nice, and have thought about models with a hood. I like the idea of a suede lining on the Safariland models (my GI holsters have leather lining, idk which would be more durable). I think I also read that some Safariland models retain the pistol without a light attached which would be great. Modularity is important to me. I know there are many other options like Blade-Tech and tons of pancake styles out there. Any ideas what would best fill my needs?
FWIW, I'm looking for a G19 w/ TLR-1 and if I like that one enough, a 1911 w/ X300. Primary use will be for any classes and range time/training. If I can conceal it well enough (doubtful), then I'd consider it as EDC too.
