freeman74 Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Looking for your learned suggestions for a Holster for my new inbound pistol, but struggling to find any that are suitable. To pox matters further than my choice of pistol, I'm a leftie. Ideally looking for a Dropleg, and not a "universal" one. Only thing I've found that might be possible is a XST Kydex STI 2011, but its belt mounted, not RTI compatible. Help? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
ED-SKaR Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 I had a go at modifying a clone blackhawk 1911 holster. It fits my hicappa and holds it very tightly, but it can't hold 1911s anymore due to the difference in frame shape. Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 I was told that my safariland glock holster I'm selling actually fits 4.3s. Might give you some options. Link to post Share on other sites
bladerunner Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 the glock 20 serpa fits but doesnt lock onto the trigger. I had one made by hw holsters http://www.hwholsters.co.uk/ and as such its a perfect fit. Its the second holster I have had from them and is great quality but as they are made there is a waiting time. Link to post Share on other sites
freeman74 Posted April 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Just checked my Safariland G17/22 holster, Gat landed earlier, and it kind of fits, not perfectly, but close. Maybe worth getting a cheap clone SERPA? Link to post Share on other sites
rwoodcock01 Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 There are a few out there, the Safariland for a glock 19 with M3 lights works a charm with a TLR1 light fitted to by Hi-Capa 4.3. Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 There's an old similar thread to this but it was a bugger to find because it was archived. http://arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/180529-need-suggestion-for-rigid-holster-for-hi-capa-43-with-taclight/ Some points: The hi-capa isn't a real gun, but it's very close to the STI and to a lesser extent Springfield Operator/Kimber. Safariland product code should be xxxx-5340-zzz (where xxxx is the holster type and zzz is the handedness/finish). For example 6285-5340-131.The above coded holster is confirmed working for a 4.3 hicapa with TK grip and Surefire x300. Perfect fit.I believe it would work for a standard 4.3 or 5.1, but don't currently have either available to test. Serpa 1911 holster fits 4.3, but only if you modify the holster with a dremmel. If you've replaced the grips with rounded ones then only the bottom/muzzle end needs doing. I also found that putting a small o-ring spacer on the metal rod that runs through the plastic locking/release tab to push the whole mechanism towards the top of the holster resulted in a more positive locking action.

BigAl Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Other option is get a custom molded Kydex Holster. Link to post Share on other sites

freeman74 Posted April 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Cheers for the input, esp the other thread link. Probably end up going the Kydex route. Link to post Share on other sites
