Gen4 light and holster combo?

[Thesource161]

I'm was fortunate enough to have jailed a gen4 yesterday. I'm looking for recommendations on a light and holster combo. Anyone have any positive experiences or good information on a setup. I'm leaning towards the surefire xc1.

Picture because a thread is worthless without pictures.

? I don't follow.

I have a Surefire XC1 and Raven Phantom holster for my G19. It works well enough but I hope that Safariland makes a light-compatible ALS holster for that combo in the future.

I think he's just joking that a picture, while appreciated, wasn't necessary since everyone knows what a gen4 glock looks like. I, for one, like pretty pictures in threads even if I know what it looks like, it's boring looking at nothing but text all day.

Anyways, check out the Crossbreed Supertuck with a Surefire XC1. CB makes a holster for that weapon/light combo. And it's a great light. Great holster too.

Anyone else?

Safariland ALS no doubt. Unless its for CCW then you have to ask yourself...do I really need the light? But for duty/combat type use ALS hands down. Don't even waste your time with the blackhawk holsters.

It's as quick on the draw as a holster with no retention(well unless you're a competition shooter), great immediate retention when you re-holster and extremely durable.

I have an Inforce APL on a Glock 19 and use an OWB Raven Concealment Phantom Light Compatible Holster. I like the setup.

But I did mix and match the retention loops. I have one Pancake Wing and one Standard Loop to snug it up the way I like it.

Until you acquire at least a dozen holsters for the same style pistol, you can never be sure.

Zzz holsters for me. Love them.

X300, and i love Griffon Industries holsters.

I run a Surefire and Galco.

I've got an XC1 and several X300's. The XC1 is a great light if minimal added size is your goal, but for functionality the X300 with a DG switch can't be beat. If I knew I was going to be in a self-defense situtation that would be what I would bring.

For IWB I just got a Blackpoint holster and it is the best IWB holster I've used yet. I've got several OWB Raven holsters and they are nice, but give Blackpoint a look as well: http://www.blackpointtactical.com/shop/mwlm/
