I believe Smokey Mountain or Redx would do a custom with the option to add a safariland drop leg attachment like the UBL.
I have used the midride UBL on my 578GLS and it worked well. I ended up going with the Proctor Holster hanger mount to drop the gun a bit off of my hip because I wear a 1.5'' belt and they have that size. The UBL is larger, but a ziptie did work to secure it to the belt.
I would go with the Safariland 578GLS and use it with the mid or low UBL if you want a drop leg. That would probably be your best bet for a quality, good value option. I like that the GLS has a retention system as well. It isnt considered level 2 but does prevent the gun from coming out when running etc.
Walmart carries the 578 GLS (at least where i live). It fits like 225 guns and can be adjusted.
