I’ve had some inquiries about this so here the photos. Let me state that modifying a holster voids any warranty and opens the user up to suffering a holster failure. Up to and including a catastrophic discharge of your handgun.
I am not qualified to instruct you how to do this. And do not use this post as some-kind of guide or instruction. This is merely documenting what I did. For good or ill.
Don’t do it.
-
- Blue Gun to determine cut points.
-
- Blue gun vs real gun with SRO.
-
- Figuring out RDS clearance.
-
- Back side clearance.
-
- Added washers to widen holster.
-
- Relief cut for EDC slide-stop.
-
- Cut to clear Trijicon SRO.
-
- Try not to have Kydex hit SRO.
There are still problems with this solution and you won’t be 100% happy with the result. Additionally I have had no contact with Keeper’s Concealment about this move. But I am HIGHLY confident if they see the photos, they won’t be in the least bit happy and will find all kinds of things “wrong” with my solution.
The work done. EDC X9L AIWB Holster.
C’est la vie.
