midvalleyshooter Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) So I finally found a G17 Gen 5 FS. It came with a Holosun 507c and tall night sights. I realize the tall sights are not needed but what the hey, the gat came with them on it. My issue is none of my holsters have a sight channel big enough for the monster front sight! Do any of you guys know of a holster that has room for a front sight this tall? Edited March 7, 2020 by midvalleyshooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perttime Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I believe many kydex bakers offer options for optics and co-witness sights. Here's one: https://www.lsholster.com/the-huron-holster/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustang684 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I ordered a holster from Red Hill Tactical for my G34 MOS with tall sights. I clicked on the suppressor height sight box. Mine looks pretty similar to your setup. What is your sight height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustang684 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 For comparison, I used the Dawson Precision sights for Glock 34 MOS with deltapoint. The front blade is 0.485” tall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front blade is 0.485” tall. These Trijicon sights have a front sight height of .375". They fit in my Safariland G17 holster but the front sight rubs. No go in another Safariland and an old Bladetech. While I have dabbled with RDS on Glocks before this is my first gun with tall sights. I kind of like them and want to leave them on.

Mustang684 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 With the .485 sights on there is about 1/8” clearance to the inside of the rht holster. Even if you try to force the sight to hit it stays at 1/16”..you should be good to go with your setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midvalleyshooter Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Found a Bladetech Signature holster locally. Plenty of room for tall sights: Edited March 14, 2020 by midvalleyshooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
