Yes it came with the spacers and I bought an extra mod pack too because I use their clips on my shield holster and they wear out so I have plenty of spacers I might just give that a try thanks for the idea.

So glad you you gave me that idea because it works! It's not a 100% perfect fit but much better than what I'm currently using.

The fit is actually very good but there is no positive lock/click into the trigger guard like there's supposed to be due to a slight variation in the dimension differences.

I only needed to use the longer spacers on the slide side of the holster, I kept the original spacers on the trigger guard side and the retention is good. It's snug enough that I can turn it upside down and shake it lightly but if I shake it good it falls out.

Hopefully this will get me by until alien gear makes a shell for this gun then I can just buy a new shell. I already emailed them and requested it to be added to the holster list.

Yes those are the two I found too when I was looking. The MJD looked uncomfortable to me and the black arch has a wait time which I wasn't thrilled about.

Glad it worked, from the pics it look like a very nice fit. I think somewhere on the Alien Gear site it says that you can swap shells. If so, then you can get the correct one at no additional charge if/when they add it to their inventory.

Yep that's the plan. Hopefully sooner than later
