I set up a G19MOS with a new acro P2 and a sf 300v vampire for night vision work. I'm stumped on what holster to get. Will go on a LARPing war belt.
I am reading safariland might not be super high quality anymore.
I read Blackhawk T2 is good so I looked on there. Seems like BH is of the mindset nobody uses surefire anymore and everyone is using streamlights. Which maybe that's true? I don't follow trends closely.
I assume my 300V won't work in a streamlight BH T2 holster because BH specifically calls out the SF300 models. Although it seems like they offer 10 different stream light holsters for every 1 SF. Why?
So then I found two T2s that seem to meet my needs. An L2D and an L3D for level 2 or 3 retention. RDS which doesn't list acro as a compatable RDS. I guess everyone is running holosun and streamlights now? Or at least all of BH's customers?
But I think the acro will fit, I saw a thread here that suggested the level 3 retention won't close well if using he acro. No problem, I'll get the level 2 retention model, I'm just a civilian anyway.
AND it's been out of stock for months. They only have the L3D version which may or may not fit with the acro p2. So I have this sweet new gun for months that I havnt shot other than to zero because no holster. Feels bad man.
I figured I'd post here and ask for advice on what to get or what to do. Maybe there's a retailer that I missed who has them.
I'd also love a tan one like the FBI is issued but I guess those come in streamlight only because I guess no one uses surefire anymore. Not even the FBI.
I'm completely fine with zero retention, a pure kydex holster as long as it's heavy duty and as durable as the T2 is. My LARPing requirements are more about being heavy duty than needing to retain from an attacker trying to grab it out of my holster. That's not in my threat model. I'm also really concerned about the holster being protective of the acro. If I fall or get hit or something on the holster, I want the acro to be as reasonably protected as possible. So no open front competition style holsters please.
Thanks for any advice.
