Lurker here. Sounds like Zeus will be great. I appreciate excellent design and craftsmanship that displays an understanding of the target audience.
A question just occurred to me though: Will Zeus come with a holster? I prefer holsters to clips, but rarely see well designed, durable holsters. If you do package Zeus with a holster, could you design it without a flap? Undoing flaps is not conducive to rapid removal of lights. Also, you can't invert the light and use the holster for hands-free illumination if the flap is in the way.
Hi Alphanumeric,
Thanks for posting
I've been planning a holster but need to finalize Zeus before I can finalize a holster.
It is very helpful to have feedback on what works as I've only really used the flapped holsters so far.
Thanks Alex,That's some good thinking on the requirements of a holster. What did you think about the Surefire Z71 or the Blackhawk Gladius holster? They are well designed for carry in either direction.
I'll have to look into those.
Thanks mcbrat,+1 a rotatable Kydex holster would be cool. and if you only put one retention dent in it, with the Zeus design, you could vary how deep it carried in the holster which would increase/decrease deployment response times :thumbsup:
Plenty to think about.
I was expecting you to mention a copper holster though
