    That might have to be a custom job. In my experience, you will only find pre-made holsters for guns with accessories for extremely popular guns with extremely popular accessories. I was able to find a couple different kydex holsters for My Shield 9mm with the Lasermax laser that fits over the trigger guard. I considered myself lucky in finding those. I am hoping I can also find one for my G19 with a Streamlight TLR-3.

    Fobus makes one for several guns. It is open in the back so your accessory(s) stick out. Not sure how much I like the idea, but there you go. I saw them on eBay, but I'm sure they can be found elsewhere.

    Hooch Is a Greenwood Police SWAT Officer. I had him make a holster for my Ruger SR9c and it was nice. Get ahold of USDS or Elmores and see if they can put you in touch with him.

    My biggest concern with A Fobus holster would be that it's made by Fobus.

    Agreed! They seem well enough for around the house or personal property but I dont think they have good enough retention for a carry holster. I personally had one of the holsters in question and it was not my cup-o-tea. I like the Kydex options better.

    Weird, my experience with Fobus is that they have too much retention. I could hardly draw from the dang thing.

    They start out this way, but if you use them for training or competition (anything where you draw frequently), they quickly loosen up to the point where the gun can fall out.

    I carry a sig 229 with TLR2 and just bought IMI defense paddle holster. They are made in Israel, took about 3 weeks to get. It's a level 2 and so far I really like it.
