FDO Industries -Formerly Fierce Defender- IWB Kydex Holster Compatible with Glock 19 23 32 w/PL Mini 2 - +1 Series w/Claw -Made in USA-

I never thought I'd be able to conceal a g19x with an olight, let alone an extra 19 round mag for it. But it works. I have to say for the price this thing is a steal. Comfort is not bad at all. Driving a car with recaros and a manual is definitely tolerable. I dont generally carry appendix because it's just not comfortable for me but this holster really surprised me. Great quality and value, highly recommend.

This holster is a solid choice to carry your Glock 19 (or clone) with an OLIGHT PL-2. However, be prepared to adjust, sand, and work it in a bit. Full disclosure, I am using this with an aftermarket slide and suppressor sights. Initially, the pistol did not want to go into the holster. The front side kydex had a lip turned in at the corner of the weapon light entry. I loosened the holster screws all the way and got the weapon seated. It was an extremely tight fit. I tightened the screws and used a hair dryer to soften the kydex and continued to tighten the screws. This took a couple of sessions to get the holster reformed to allow a smoother seat and draw. the pistol scraped some of the kydex lip off and some of the corners on the slide area. After that, I took a file and sand paper to smooth out the rest. It now seats and draws smoothly. So, if you put the work into it, you'll have a nice holster. I guess it's not bad compared to what I used to do with leather holsters back in the day.

Great holster but the belt clips will not work with a standard EDC style belt. I wish they had different size options.

I’ve owned a trex arms side car holster and when comparing both holsters they are both the same in my opinion the only difference would be that the FDO will be shipped in 2-3 days and the other one has long lead times. Overall great product and I own various other holsters created by FDO industries. The pl mini 2 fits perfectly in this holster and is the only company that I know of that makes a sidecar holster for this light. My recommendation for this company is to make a holster for the 43x with the recovery rail and pl mini 2 as I believe it would sell quite well.

Just got it today fits my gen 3 19 with the mini valkyrie amazingly. So far it's comfortable and holding up well. I will update review as it gets more use.

I'm not a huge guy (5'11", 205lbs) but his holster was unbearable to wear. Extremely uncomfortable and among the worst I've tried. The position of the claw and the belt clip make it nearly impossible to onto your belt and pants. Putting that thing on was way too difficult, even when pants are undone to try and make it easier. I like the idea of a sidecar holster, but none of the ones I've tried on Amazon have been any good. I suppose that leaves me either giving up completely on them, or shelling out north of $150 for a Tier 1 holster.

**06/29/2021 Company reached out and offered replacements with thicker kydex. Raising rating but will stick with Tier 1 Concealed **Updated again 06/25/21. I'm dropping this another star. Got in touch with the manufacturer via their website. After a customer service rep reached out to me and asked for pictures, they just stopped responding. That infuriates **Update**. Purchased 3/16/2021.... And it broke almost 6 months later (a little less). While I've been adjusting the holster quite. bit, I haven't been particularly rough or aggressive with it. I've attached pictures of the break point... And needless to say it's a pretty critical juncture. Holster is useless to me now and I'm not finding any recourse or avenue of return. Basically, if I do the math and have to buy one of these every 6 months, it is ABSOLUTELY more cost effective to spend the extra money on a Tier1, T-Rex Arms, or another higher quality option. Totally disappointed to once again having to admit... You get what you pay for.** I'm a relatively experienced appendix carrier, but this is my first foray into a sidecar style holster. So far, I've been wearing this daily (switching between this one and the version with no light) and while I'm still finding the perfect positioning, I'm pretty sure this is going to be my EDC choice moving forward. Pros: Great range of retention and positioning and is easy to adjust (which is great because I've been tinkering with clips, claw, and retention a TON). Cons: The direction of the spare mag is wrong. I should probably say not intuitive... But I can't see anyone reloading efficiently with the bullets facing out like this one. The saving grace is that I can still put the mag in facing the opposite way and tighten the retention a bit and it'll hold. I just don't get that satisfying click I enjoy so much. Also, the curve of the whole rig is a little... off? Odd? I have to wear it a little farther left or right so the gun or mag is wrapping slightly around my hip. I think a little flexibility in the middle would resolve this and another reviewer has instructions for cutting the thing in half and using a bungie in the middle. I'm going to stick with it for a while before I do any mods. Bottomline is, I've been running, jumping, rolling around, and climbing trees with an RMR equipped pistol on without any shifting, loss of weapon, or loss of mobility. The printing can be kind of rough, but I've continued to improve the concealment by experimenting with different positions and clip configs. Overall, I'm pleased with what I got here. Will be buying again.

Great holster, good form fit. I would recommend.
