Overview
A polymer shell of Kydex and Boltaron forms the Photon holster, which is offered for inside and outside waistband carry and in several fitments. The title names optics-ready and compact-light options, and the listing shows a weapon light mounting type.
The reason to look at it is the range of options in one listing: carry style, hand, light or no light. That range is also the limit, since details such as the exact pistol, retention and clip type depend on the variation chosen.
Who it's for
Owners of a supported pistol with an optic or a weapon light who want a holster built around those parts can find a version here. Anyone unsure of the fitment should check the variation list first, because the listing shows more than one.
Pros and cons
- IWB and OWB options
- Right and left hand options
- Light and no-light options
- Kydex and Boltaron shell
- Fit depends on the variation chosen
- Retention details missing
- Specs shown for one variation only
Performance notes
A molded polymer shell holds the pistol in a fixed shape, and the cutouts for an optic and a weapon light decide whether the gun seats correctly. Wrong fitment is the main failure, so the variation matters more than any other feature.
