Important Ordering & Compatibility Notes Compensator & Aftermarket Policy: Rail-Mounted Comps: Holsters are NOT compatible with compensators attached directly to the frame/accessory rail. Threaded Comps: If you run a thread-on barrel compensator, you must leave a note at checkout. We will trim extra material from the muzzle to accommodate it, but please note the compensator itself will remain exposed outside the holster body. Other Mods: Please leave a note at checkout if you are running extended light switches, aftermarket magazine releases, or unique slide modifications. Mounting Hardware: While the holster features a universal hole pattern, minor modifications or specific hardware sizing may be required depending on the exact mounting system you run. Hardware Separators: RTI systems are G-Code’s proprietary mounts. Drop-leg platforms, belt loops, and attachment receivers are not included with the holster. Duty Drop Offset Plate Attachment
