They don't fit into holsters with the lights mounted, but will fit into a Blackhawk Kydex holster if you slip the light off.
Frankly, I don't holster these any more. They are dedicated home defense/camping defense pistols now.
As soon as I get the Docter reflex sight mounted, it will be, in my ever so humble opinion, just perfect. laugh
oh, and I have zero problem illuminating a bump in the night, while pointing the 1911 at what is causing me angst. smile

Mannlicher,
exactly how did your gunsmith attach the rail? Has it been used and does it come loose?
