Well, for better or for worse, I've had a case of geardo-ism lately and am looking to switch over to a MOLLE loadout soon. I've settled in pretty well on a plate carrier and most of the pouches I want/need, but I can't find myself a MOLLE compatible holster anywhere (of course, I can't really claim to know where to look).
Most of what I find are drop-leg or thigh holsters, both of which bug me to no end. I'd just like a nice, solid MOLLE holster to put on a plate carrier to hold my 1911, that's all. Any suggestions?

Short and cheap version: Tuck it into an open topped M4 mag pouch. Elitist Pig Version: Diamondback Tactical makes an adaptor to take a Safariland 6004, pull it off the drop-leg platform, and mount it on MOLLE gear. In between version: Never liked 'em much. Tactical Tailor makes one, and for a while I used it on a TT modular drop leg panel, but I got tired of it fairly quickly. Compared to the HSGI dropleg design, the MOLLE holster on MOLLE panel concept was wobbly and awkward.

Thanks Zorak, that's about what I needed to know. I had seen the TT holster but was curious if there was a better option out there.

When I had my TM mk23, I used to put it into a radio pouch as it was the perfect size and offered great protection.

Blackhawk makes a MOLLE adaptor for their SERPA. It should run about $15 on top of the cost of the holster (around $50). I tend to get my gear prices from LApolicegear, so you might be able to find them cheaper elsewhere.

As far a all that goes, all my sidearms ride in SERPAs, one on the hip, the other on a leg panel. I avoid PC mounted holsters like the plague, as they eat up real estate for my more useful rufle mags. That being said, I have a tornado holster over my right shoulder that's been modified and zip-tied to my MOLLE and holds my modded Marushin Mossberg M500 with no huge amount of wobble. Definately a choice to consider, especially if funds are tight.
