I carry a g26 in a crossbreed supertuck in horsehide. Design is very similar to your holster.......
Its an "old faithful" brand holster. I bought it as a kit to put together with carbon fiber print kydex. It was cheaper than most too.

Donut wrote: Well, anyone who is an advocate for Surefire and reliability will talk all day about the twisty/momentary tail switch. The clickies and the L1 type tail are made with too much plastic, if they fall the wrong way they break. Many people might use the L1 or E series and it might last them a lifetime without breaking, including me. But they aren't the epitome of reliable, and if you need to rely on something, I wouldn't be going for that.

I know what you're talking about. I messaged Milky a few times. My history is basically: send milky a message, no reply, send milky a message, no reply, send milky a message, no reply. *shrugs*

But yeah, I love my clickies, I typically carry a 47's tactical or Novatac or RA or some Nitecore. I can deal with a switch failing for the usefulness the clickie switch provides me.
Ironically, I'm one of the biggest critics of SureFire on CandlePowerForums.com

But, when it comes to SureFire or any other company, I give credit where it's due. Generally excellent lights, but some of their business practices are quite odorous. Biggest one would be how SureFire used the legal system the way a dude named "John" would use a working girl . . . in order to put a smaller competitor out of business.

As WESBC mentioned, your best bet is to email Scott. Thing is, Milky is in ridiculously high demand. Even I knew he was overloaded with customer projects, but it turned out to be even worse than even I expected. Plus, Scott is not a businessman. Even he has pointed out that fact. He doesn't modify lights for a living. Along with that, I've gotten to know him a bit. He has an artist's mentality. That does not mean he's a pretentious jerk. Not at all. But if you understand artists, you'll understand how Scott works. You can't rush an artist. You can't expect him to work when other things are on his mind, or if he's not in the right mood. The end result will be sub-par.

My customized L1 was, according to Scott, a relatively simple modification. And I ended up waiting several months for the finished product. That's how buzy he is, that's how many other customer orders were done before mine. Scott's work is absolutely worth it. But if you go that route, be extremely patient and prepare to wait several months if not longer.

That sucks about Surefire, I only like them for what they are good at.

Yeah, I know about Scott and that he is very busy. I don't think I am willing to wait for it.

I think I have emailed him in the past.

Wallet
Blackberry(eh)
Spyderco Lava
Keys with 4Sevens Mini123 and Leatherman Squirt PS4
Blistex(Raspberry Lemonade Blast :D )
Hinderer Investigator Pen
Spyderco Beanie

The flashlight(Surefire Lx2) and radio(Yaesu VX-2) stay in the jacket most of the time.


The knives and flashlights usually change daily. Being its winter I like to always have a 2cell CR123 light on me as I can get away with carrying it in the jacket. If not the LX2 its Fenix PD30+. And if not the Lava well.... too long to list .

On top of my usual EDC, I was carrying this because I couldn't resist putting it down since the mailman dropped it off.
