Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a new holster if I add a red dot sight to my pistol?

Yes, often you will. Adding an optical sight changes your firearm's profile, especially around the slide and rear sight area. Standard holsters may no longer fit or allow proper insertion due to the optic's dimensions, requiring an optic-ready holster or modification.

What are the options for holstering a pistol with an optic?

You have two primary options: purchase a new holster specifically designed to be 'optic-ready,' which has a cutout or modified shape to accommodate the sight. Alternatively, you can modify your existing holster by carefully cutting away material around the trigger guard area to create the necessary clearance.

Can I cut my existing holster to fit my pistol's optic?

Yes, modifying your current holster by cutting it is a viable option. This is often done to create space for an optical sight. The key is to ensure the modification doesn't compromise the holster's primary retention features, which should still secure the firearm effectively.

What type of holsters are most affected by pistol optics?

Holsters that rely on retention around the trigger guard or rear sight area are most commonly affected. If the plastic extends high enough to interfere with the optic's housing, it can prevent the firearm from being fully inserted or properly retained in the holster.
