CCW Handgun lights and holsters.

I bet some of you have some great advice on which American made handgun lights and holsters make a great combo. What are you in love with?

Pick your light and let RR custom make the holster

What pistol?

Depending on the day it’s either a Streamlight or Olight in the pocket. But its always a @chiefjason leather pancake (OWB) holster on a Fat Boy belt from @Gunbelt.

I have Streamlights, but not American made.

Having a hard time deciding, but either the Sig Legion P226 SAO, Glock 19X or the Sig P320. I need to get the light, before committing to a holster.

I have a Streamlight TLR-1HL on a Glock 19 and also a TLR-7 on another Glock 19. The TLR-1 is much bigger and protrudes past the barrel/slide and is built more rugged so it goes on my duty/range G19. My TLR-7 is much smaller and is flush with the slide/barrel so it goes on my CCW G19.

TLDR: TLR-1HL for duty/combat/HD where you don't conceal, TLR-7 for concealment/smaller size.

Pick the holster for the gun/light combo before you pick the gun/light combo.

Most do it the other way. And I tell a lot of them I can't make a holster for them. Not all combos have molds. Not everyone has decent pro deal for makers. And not all makers are willing to pay retail for a light that might be popular and might not be. Particularly with gun specific lights.

FWIW, I've done a little of all of the above. But it's nearly impossible or financially impractical to keep up with everything out there.

Deciding on the light first is going to narrow down your options significantly.
Surefire X300 is probably most popular for light bearing holsters, follow by Streamlight TLR

Can do something like a PHLster Floodlight that is light specific and not pistol specific.

Floodlight1 | PHLSTER Kydex Holsters and Medical Accessories

The Floodlight1 is a universalized holster, made to accept most service-grade pistols capable of attaching one of the following lights: Modlite PL350 The Floodlight holster provides secure friction retention by indexing on the light, not the gun. Each Floodlight model is specific to the light...
