I’m just going to leave this here

Verdict: Blackhawk Omnivore holsters are great, they are universal but very secure due to their active retention which is applied to flashlight (or 20mm mounting bracket if non flashlight version) and at a reasonable price. It’s not always the easiest for us southpaws to find good holsters but this one works. if you are looking to mount it to a QLS system though you will need an adaptor as the two are not directly compatible. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4948094/files

I’ve ended up changing my plan and ordering a Blackhawk omnivore and I also have a TLR-1 on its way so will update you on my opinion when it arrives

How do you find the retention? Is the passive retention enough or do you feel active retention ie strap/ hood or button release would make it more secure?

does the omnivore allow for optics? Unfortunately I can’t find any left handed holsters on Aliexpress. I bought some mid ride QLS mounts from them that arrived today, fraction of the price of any available in the UK.

Thanks, appreciate your response im looking at buying from Kydex customs the only other thing I probably should have mentioned above is im left handed so not the everywhere does suitable holsters. the flashlight I’m using is a genuine O-light PL turbo Valkyrie - very nice light.

Hi everyone; I’m looking at purchasing my first kydex holster and just want some validation that the passive retention is enough to keep my sidearm secure. im not fast and definitely not elegant; more bull in a china shop, that sometimes falls over. I’ve ran lots of holsters over the years all with some form of active retention, whether it be a fabric strap or warrior universal button release; and even with this security liked to opt for a bungee lanyard just in case ( some of my pistols are not lanyard compatible). This will be on a mid-ride belt mount with leg strap. I run a variety of pistols ( FNX, G17, P226, M45, Hi Capa) so would be probably be getting a universal holster whos retention is flashlight based. So my options are: universal holster with flashlight retention costing a total of £60 or seperate light bearing, active retention hood at £110 per pistol. What should I do?

If you’re running mid caps, they fit in MP5 mag pouches.
