Our Widowmaker line of holsters function the same as our standard Model 3 IWB and Model 4 AIWB designs. The difference is the added ribbings along the sight channel, giving the Widowmaker a distinctive, more eye-catching look. If you prefer a clean, classic style, stick with the standard Model 3 IWB or Model 4 AIWB. But if you like a bit of flair - something bold and attention-grabbing - the Widowmaker is the perfect choice!
The Model 3 IWB Light Bearing holster builds upon the proven versatility and comfort of the Model 1 IWB design, now enhanced to accommodate popular weapon-mounted lights. This inside-the-waistband holster maintains the flexibility to be worn in a wide range of carry positions—from appendix all the way to the 4 o’clock position—making it an excellent option for those who value adaptability.
While it shares many core design elements with our dedicated light bearing appendix holster (Model 4 AIWB Light Bearing), the Model 3 IWB Light Bearing does not incorporate body contouring, preserving its ability to transition comfortably between carry positions. The key upgrade is its light-bearing capability, allowing you to securely carry your firearm equipped with a weapon light.
To support this configuration, the holster has been redesigned with a slightly extended muzzle to help shield and protect the weapon light’s glass lens from impact and debris. At the same time, it retains an open-muzzle design, ensuring debris can clear freely and allowing compatibility with threaded barrels.
For those who prefer switching between carry positions, the Model 3 IWB Light Bearing is an outstanding choice. However, if you primarily carry in the appendix position, we strongly recommend considering our Model 4 AIWB Light Bearing holster for its dedicated appendix-focused design.

Ambi Safety Levers Protected:
Form follows function. Our holsters are designed to fully protect ambidextrous safeties - we never compromise your safety for the sake of a low-cut design that exposes the safety lever. In keeping with this philosophy, our holsters for all 2011 series provide complete coverage of both safety levers.
Synth Fitment Notice:
The Synth is not compatible with holsters designed for the Staccato 2011 due to dimensional differences, which result in poor retention and excessive slide finish wear. While the Synth can be forced into Staccato 2011 holsters, it is not securely retained. Retention occurs only through friction against the slide rather than proper holster lockup, leading to accelerated wear of the slide finish. The wider slide and dust cover of the Synth are the primary causes of this poor fit.
Our holsters for the Synth are specifically designed for this firearm to ensure proper slide clearance and secure lockup.
