OWB Belt Attachments Explained
Jason PineWe realize that not everyone knows the difference between a Blade-Tech Tek-Lok belt attachment and a Talon Retention Systems belt slide, and that some may be unfamiliar with many of the holster belt attachment options available today. That being understood, the purpose of this document is to provide our customers with a brief explanation of each attachment we currently offer.
All of the attachments explained below mount on the inside of our taco-style holsters with threaded posts and screws secured with removable thread locker, also known as Loctite.

Blade-Tech Adjustable Paddle Click here to order
The paddle attachment is a wide platform that rides on the hip with significant stability. The design of this paddle keeps your pistol close to the body with minimal firearm printing for an outside waistband holster. The paddle is adjustable for belts from 1 ¼” wide to 2” wide. We find this paddle is extremely comfortable and enjoy wearing it all day.
Blade-Tech Adjustable StingRay Loop Click here to order
The Adjustable Stingray Belt Loop offers stability on the outside waistband while keeping your pistol close to the body. The Stingray has an internal shim similar to the Tek-Lok attachment, which allows adjustment to fit belts up to 2” wide. 
Talon Retention Systems Belt Slide Click here to order
The Talon Retention Systems Belt Slide Universal Outside Waistband Belt Slide Attachment can be mounted on 1 ½” or 1 ¾” belt widths with no needed adjustments to make the transition. A universal mounting system allows users to adjust the holster angle of taco-style holsters by moving the hardware to different mounting hole locations on the slide.
Please note: This attachment works best with thinner, more flexible belts. Duty and thick belts will be harder to feed through the attachment and may cause holster issues. 
The QLS Fork works only with the Safariland QLS22 or QLS22L receiver plates. A quick pinch of the thumb and index finger lets the user remove the holster and place it in another receiver.

Potential first time buyer seeking a holster for the SIG Fuse with a Holosun 507 optic and the new TLR-8X light. Your site doesn’t specify the ‘TLR-8X’ so I’m trying to find out which accessory on the TLR -7 lineup to pick from that matches the dimensions? Additionally, I want to chose more than one holster attachment on the purchase but your site doesn’t allow that ‘option’. Would appreciate a phone call to secure a purchase with the correct setup. TIA!
Please contact me when possible. I need an owb ste up for an OWB-Very minimal printing-This is for a Sig Sauer P365 XL Spector 9mm pistol. This is not the Spector Comp. In addition, depending on how flexible your gear is, I would like to purchase something that may as flexible as some of the pistols I use. If you are familliar with the Sig Sauer P365 line up You may be able to relate to what I am looking for. Thank you Take care-God bless-Shawn Shipstad.
What attachment would I need if I wanted to do a drop leg holster? Thank you.
Hellcat pro with TLR-7 sub light and Holosun site. Owb over belt? Which do you suggest?
Being a visual learner, it would be good to see a demo of each attachment to better understand which would be best for my carry.
