FDO Industries IWB Lightbearing Kydex Holster Optic Cut with Claw & DCC 1.5" Metal Monoblock Gear Clip - Made in USA

Has been a great holster for my g26 gen 5 with the tlr6 ive added a wedge to it for added concealment but even without it it works very well with the claw and dcc monoblock. I highly suggest that clip for any holster as it work with or without a belt and with sweatpants also just be sure to tie the string tight and hook it over the claw for added grip but in some I wear it had the same feel drawing as with my good magpul belt. Would recommend this holster for any with this set up. Also came with two heights for the claw

This is one of the bes holsters on the market one can find. It’s hard to get what you’re looking for sometimes because not everyone makes holsters with this finish. Very well made product, therefore I highly recommend to every gun owner, stop struggling by looking at the right holster for your weapon. In my opinion this is one of the best. Thank you so much for your dedication and commitment with what you guys do.

Fits my Gen 3 Glock 27 with TLR6 perfectly. Does th job of concealing well with existing clasps and claw…wedge availability would have been even better.

Just received. The holster cut is great for the olight Baldr, however the retention screws are too short. I had to take them out (and thus remove the claw) in order for the CZ to be inserted and removed.

I highly recommend this holster. I run it with my G19 MOS with a red dot and TLR-7 light, which is a pretty decent size package, and it’s as comfy as can be in this holster. The clips are great and can attach onto sweatpants in a pinch, but I wouldn’t recommend it. The claw on the side presses the gun into your waist and greatly reduces printing.

I recently had the privilege of receiving the **FDO Industries IWB Lightbearing Kydex Holster** as part of the Vine program, and I’ve had ample opportunity to evaluate its build quality and functionality. Here's my honest review.### First Impressions:Straight out of the box, the holster feels lightweight yet sturdy. The fact that it’s **Made in the USA** is a point of pride, and you can see that some care was put into its craftsmanship. The **optic cut** is increasingly essential in today’s market as optics gain popularity, and the addition of a **claw** is a great feature for improving concealment by minimizing printing on the body.### Design and Features:The holster comes equipped with the **DCC 1.5' Metal Monoblock Gear Clip**, and this was one of the standout elements for me. The metal clip feels durable and secure, eliminating the worry of it coming loose during daily wear or strenuous activities. Additionally, the **light-bearing design** is another strong point, making the holster versatile for those who prefer to carry pistols equipped with weapon lights.The **Kydex material** is molded well and fits my firearm snugly—there’s no unnecessary movement or rattling. The retention is adjustable, offering an added layer of customization that I appreciate. Paired with the claw, the holster is clearly designed with everyday concealed carry in mind.### Comfort and Concealment:Wearing the holster IWB (inside the waistband), I found the overall comfort to be decent. The Kydex material can be a bit rigid against the body, but that’s to be expected from most hard-shelled holsters. It conceals well with minimal printing, even under a fitted shirt, due to the thoughtful design of the claw. The optic cut is seamless, leaving no sharp edges, which is a detail I found impressive for long-term wear.### Value for Price:Here’s where I feel a little torn. While the build quality is undoubtedly solid and the combination of features is well thought out, I can’t help but feel like the overall quality doesn't quite match the higher price point. There are several holsters in the market in this category, priced similarly or even more affordably, that offer equal or better finishing and attention to detail. The edges of the Kydex, for example, could have been rounded off more smoothly for better comfort.However, I do believe the **DCC metal monoblock gear clip** adds a premium touch, offering a better hold compared to some cheaper plastic clips. Coupled with the versatility of accommodating a light-bearing firearm and optic, the price is slightly more justifiable for those with these specific needs.### Final Thoughts:The **FDO Industries IWB Lightbearing Kydex Holster** is a well-built holster that checks most of the boxes for functionality, durability, and design. The inclusion of premium features like the optic cut, claw, and metal monoblock clip make it a solid choice for concealed carriers looking for a high-performance holster. That said, the price may feel slightly steep compared to the perceived quality for some users. If you’re someone who values American-made products and needs a light-bearing system holster, this is worth considering.**Rating: 4/5**- **Pros:** Great retention, quality clip, versatile features, minimalist concealability.- **Cons:** Slightly overpriced for the level of finishing; edges could be better refined.

even with the light this holster still has that kydex click impressive

Zero retention. Nothing secures the holster except over clamping of the screws. No retemtion what so ever. Nothing stops this from just sliding out of the holster while wearing it. This is just another garage made holster. It's not worth $10.
