I am currently using an Alien Gear 3.5 IWB holster, and really like it, but they don't offer what I need.

I want something as similar as I can get, but I need it for a Beretta M9A3, with a TLR-1 attached. Light bearing IWB holsters seem pretty difficult to find, and the few that I do are all kydex.

Maybe I could have a custom shell made for the Alien Gear holster backing, but that would only really work if the maker has both the handgun and the light available to them. Thoughts?

Yea ... I'm still looking an  inside the pants holster for my AR 300 Blk with bipod and light and laser designator attached ---- too. I guess you could call Milt Sparks and ask if they will do one with a light.

That's a really big , thick gun to IWB.

I suggest a outside pancake style holster.
Try Desantis Holsters, they might make something for that.

Phlster spotlight/floodlight.   Both are supposed to be good for aiwb.   Also JM Custom is much loved.   I

I feel your pain, it was awfully difficult to find a solid company that would make a holster for an M9 with a light on it. Especially because i have the Thicc Boi Brigadier slide on mine.

If I'm going out in the morning or midday, i CC an M92FS with Langdon upgrades (but no light) in a JM Custom Kydex holster. It's extremely comfortable, and my favorite gun to CC.

If I'm going out and expect to be out near or after sundown, I CC a Wilson Combat M92 Brigadier Tactical with an X300V on it in a Red Hill Tactical holster. It's the only company I could find that makes a holster to fit the Brigadier model M9 with a surefire light attached. I'm satisfied with RHT, but it isn't as solid a lockup as the JM, though this may be due to the flashlight on it.

Check out Red Hill Tactical, but I think T.Rex Arms might have a model that works, or Tier 1 Concealed may as well.

Sorry, I missed the IWB requirement I guess. However all you really need to do is add some Discreet Gear Clips to most any OWB kydex holster and wear comfortably as IWB in my experience.

Good luck with your hunt.

Probably not really what you're looking for but thought I'd throw it out there anyway.

That is exactly what I’m looking for, thanks!

Any experience with that company?

Good to hear! I thought maybe you were looking for something made of that same material as the Alien Gear.

I've been carrying an M&P Shield in that holster daily for several years. Theis was recommended by others on here so I ordered one. I believe its comparable to the Crossbreed SuperTuck.

I noticed they have 2 options for the TLR1. Not sure what HL stands for.

Oh and Theis is located in Conway, Arkansas for what its worth.

As long as it has a soft backing I’ll be happy. I think I’ll give one a shot, thank you.

Ah, HL = High Lumens and a slightly larger bezel.

Phlster Floodlight.  It will be your last holster so long as you keep using a TLR-1 regardless of what gun you carry.

I do not have a light on any of my carry guns but I love Mitch Rosen leather holsters. He is not close by for you but he makes some damn good gun leather. I recommend him to anyone and everyone. I go down and get my stuff custom fit before I order. Just my gun myself and some of his time and depending on lead time a month or so later I have my holster.

You’ll have to cruise the custom Kydex sights to find that.
