It is still new. It is still a great option.
Let's roll with some feedback.

have mine on right now. i've had it on since 08:30 this am. i like it alot. sitting at my desk must of the day doing class prep/admin.stuff today so i can keep it on all day. I returned last night from teaching down south so i had an 8 hour drive home, after a few hours of driving w/it in aiwb position it started to get to me. so for me 3 hour or sore drive i can do after that it strats getting in the way so to speak.
I could never get mine to be comfortable at first; even at the lowest setting, the edge of the holster was perfectly positioned to dig into my pelvis.
After the guys from RCS suggested I try it with Phantom struts (which drop it another 1/2"), it became one of my most comfortable holsters.
I still find the VG2 more comfortable, but see one-handed reholstering as a necessary feature for law enforcement...since the VG2 doesn't do that, it's the Eidolon for me.

No light is a non starter for me.
I understand some of the RCS crew feels similarly, and that they're working on it.

I was involved in the conceptual stages of this holster. It is an extremely well thought out. The boys at RCS didn't leave many stones unturned.
MattJames- The soft loop strut that is coming will have a slot on it making it infinitely adjustable for ride height. You will be able to dial in your height exactly where you need it. Just FYI.

Light bearing is coming fellas, there is alot of engineering that goes into the development side...not to mention, there will be obvious considerations for the basket full of lights that everyone will want. The market dictates what gets done first, those are the majority that fund the obscure.
Here is part of my Eidolon bouquet. The clear are some of the early prototypes while we tested the products for final recipe.

I really like it, but I'm holding out for the light bearing as well. I've heard the VG3 is in the testing phase, I'm really excited for that too.

What the deuce is a VG3? I'm not familiar with that.
.308holes, are you the Matt from the Eidolon topic on the other forum? I went back to look for your email last week and the old forum content is gone.

Am pretty anti appendix carry.....for starters not comfortable, secondly...not a big fan of my gun pointed in the area of my junk. Having said that I keep hearing good things about this holster and am planning on picking one up and giving it an honest try, I also agree with the light mounted bit. I don't currently one a weapon with out a mounted white light.
When they become commercially available I will purchase one......would be more interested in the light mounted one but have to start out someplace.

I was a diehard OWB strong side hip dude for years with only a short stint of SOB back in the early 90's. The VG series is what really sold me on AIWB. Clearing clothing is so much easier and it gives you so many more clothing options on how you can dress.
I don't mind how the gun rides up front once I found the sweet spot.
