For training classes etc I have switched from using sub loads strapped to my leg or an all kydex belt mounted option (raven concealment) to an HSGI Suregrip padded warbelt with a bunch of taco pouches. Way more comfy and I can carry more stuff (medical, more mags etc) in the same amount of space.

As the belt is worn a bit higher up on your waist/hips I was looking for a holster (either MOLLE mounted or belt mounted as the design of the HSGI belt can allow for either due to the bottom cuts) that drops the level of the holster down a bit.

I was looking at the G-Code holsters with RTI hangers and that type of set up would be ideal...

However they do not currently make holster/light combos for any of the handguns I use. SIG P229 with an X300 or Smith and Wesson M&P 9 with an X300 (or ultra)

I was wondering if anyone here had any quality alternative options.

I know Blade-Tech makes something that looks similar.

http://shop.blade-tech.com/ddos-gen2-p-183.html but I was looking for more options if possible.


If I can help it I would prefer not to use a drop leg system.

I have used both the Safari-land standard full leg drop panel 6004 (two straps) and the newer Drop Flex Adapter version at work. I currently use the DFA at work with my armor carrier and while it's a huge improvement over the traditional setup I would still like to avoid using a system that uses a leg strap at all if possible with this battle belt setup.

Thanks.

The RTI system is awesome. They (gcode) offer a conversion kit for Safariland holsters or you could go custom. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/29/vurera5a.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/29/tebe7e3a.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/29/y6uraneh.jpg

Safariland has exactly what you need. Get a 1.5" UBL and run any safariland holster on it. If you need it a bit lower get a Safariland drop flex adapter and a small shroud.

I use a Bladetech DOH that I dropped down a bit lower.

Thanks again everyone.


walkingbush, thanks for pointing out the RTI adapter. I didnt notice that one before.

I think I'm gonna go with the UBL though and stick my 6004 holster onto it.

I already use a drop flex adapter for a slightly different work setup and while it works great but I am trying to get everything off my legs if possible with this battle belt.
