I have a drawer full of holsters like many of you. I hate just donating money to the kydex folders for no good reason.
I'm 5'7", 180 on my way to 170 and would like to carry a Roland Special AIWB, but the reality is I just started to carry my normal carry gun a G19 this way after years of trying. Recently lost some weight and moving in the right direction.
Bluntly, I'm short and don't have the same real estate from the waist down to sit with a longer gun. My 19.5 RS is now almost complete. Zev slide (Citadel - NO Widows), threaded barrel and V2 comp, Ameriglo basic suppressor height sights, not sure if I'm going to change out the trigger or not. My G34s I play with gamer triggers but my carry guns, I tend to shoot them stock. RM06 T2 adj 3.25 rides on the top and I have a surefire X300 light.
I tried once before with a Bravo Concealment AIWB holster for the light with a std G19 and it was so uncomfortable that I sent it back for a strong side holster with the light. Maybe it was the holster, most likely it's me.
Anyone else, slightly over weight and short get away with a Spotlight with their Roland Special? A Tier 1 Axis Elite? A shove in the right direction would be grand or I can just use one of the G34 holsters that I own and carry it strong side in the winter months and loose the comp and light for Appendix carry in the summer.
