Last updated November 2026 · By Nick Hall, who tracks holster and weapon-light launches for USA Gun Shop readers
Quick take: FALCO just added three custom light-bearing Kydex holsters: a Velcro-backed insert for carry bags and two drop-leg rigs, one of them Level 2. Prices run $109.95 to $239.95, and FALCO says its holsters now fit 197 different lights.
- What it is: Three Kydex holsters for pistols with a mounted light, the A905 L, E901 L and E902 L, announced by FALCO Holsters on November 10, 2026.
- Price: $109.95 for the A905 L bag holster, $179.95 for the E901 L drop-leg and $239.95 for the Level 2 E902 L.
- Where: Direct from falcoholsters.com, built to order for your exact pistol and light.
- Why it matters: Bag carry and thigh carry with a weapon light are two setups most holster makers barely cover.
Buying a light-bearing holster is easy right up until you step off the Glock 19 and TLR-1 path. Pick a less common pistol, a newer light or a carry method that is not a belt, and the options thin out fast. FALCO’s new three are aimed squarely at those gaps.

What FALCO Actually Launched
FALCO Holsters, the Slovak maker that started out in 1989 making leather falconry gloves in a garage, announced the three new Kydex models on Tuesday, November 10, 2026. All three are built for handguns with a mounted light, and all three are handmade in-house from U.S.-made Kydex to fit your exact gun, light and configuration.
The E901 L ($179.95) is an open-top drop-leg holster. Two adjustable nylon straps hold the platform to your thigh, a third runs up to your belt, and all three have quick-release buckles. The holster bolts to the platform with the standard three-hole pattern, and two screws beside the light set the retention. The E901 L product page lists an open bottom and thigh straps of 21.5 and 20 inches.
The E902 L ($239.95) is the same idea with a retention hood on top, which makes it Level 2. FALCO says a push of the thumb releases the hood “as part of one continuous drawing motion.” Both drop-leg models can be configured for red dots, threaded barrels and suppressor-height sights, though the E902 L page limits it to open reflex sights no taller than 1.18 inches.
The A905 L ($109.95) is the odd one out, and the most interesting. It has no belt attachment at all. Its back is hook-side Velcro that sticks to the loop panel inside a carry bag’s gun compartment, so you set the angle yourself. FALCO says it fits all of its own concealed carry bags and any other gear with a suitable loop panel, and the A905 L page adds an optional red dot cut and an open bottom that can take a threaded barrel.
The 197-Light Number Is the Whole Pitch
The holsters are the news. The light count is the reason to care. FALCO says it now supports “197 different weapon-light models” across its holster range, and its own supported lights and lasers list has exactly 197 entries. Every one of them can be selected for any light-bearing holster FALCO makes.
That list counts lasers too, so read 197 as lights and lasers. Streamlight has 48 entries on its own, from the TLR-1 through a run of TLR-7 and TLR-8 sub variants. Viridian has 24, Crimson Trace 18 and Olight 17, including the PL X GL. Fenix, Nightstick, SureFire, HiLight and Holosun are all in there, plus a long tail of one-off models.
“Finding the right holster for a handgun equipped with a light can be a challenge, especially when you carry in a bag or on a thigh platform,” said Robert Kováč, CEO of FALCO Holsters. He said the three new models are for customers whose setup is right for them “even when their handgun and light combination is less common.”
Who Should Look at a Drop-Leg or Bag Holster
Drop-leg rigs are not concealed carry. They are for people wearing a plate carrier or a duty belt that already has no room, for range days and for anyone who wants the gun below body armor. Our breakdown of every holster type and carry position covers where a thigh rig makes sense and where it is just a costume.
Off-body carry is a different trade. A Velcro holster inside a dedicated bag beats a loose pistol rattling around with your keys, and a light-bearing one keeps the switch covered so it cannot get bumped on in transit. But you give up control of the gun the second the bag leaves your hand, and that is a bigger deal than any holster detail.
If you have not picked the light yet, start there, because the light decides the holster and not the other way around. Our best pistol lights guide is the place to narrow it down before you order anything custom.
How to Order One
All three are live on falcoholsters.com now, and each one is made to order. You pick the pistol, the light and the options, then FALCO molds it on exact replicas of that firearm. The product photos show a holster for a Glock 19 with a Streamlight TLR-8X, and yours will be cut to whatever you carry.
Each holster carries FALCO’s lifetime limited warranty and a 30-day buyback guarantee, which takes some of the sting out of ordering custom Kydex sight unseen. If you are still weighing materials, our Kydex vs leather holster comparison lays out what you give up with each.
A Velcro bag insert for a lit pistol. A Level 2 thigh rig for one that is not a Glock. Small launch, real gap filled.
