I asked Grok to design a holster for it, and here are the results:
AnswerTo design a holster for the gun shown in the image, consider the following features:
- Fit: The holster should be specifically molded to fit this particular firearm, including the mounted optic (Vortex Viper) and any other attachments. This ensures a snug fit that doesn't allow the gun to move around, which is crucial for both safety and quick draw.
- Material: Choose between leather, Kydex, or a hybrid. Kydex is popular for its durability and ability to maintain shape, which is beneficial for this specific setup with an optic.
- Retention: Incorporate an adjustable retention system. This could be a screw or a click mechanism that allows the user to adjust how tightly the gun is held. Given the optic, ensure the retention mechanism does not interfere with the sight.
- Carry Style: Decide if it's for open carry, concealed carry, or both. For concealed carry, consider an inside-the-waistband (IWB) holster. For open carry, an outside-the-waistband (OWB) might be preferable.
- Sight Channel: Ensure the holster has a sight channel that accommodates the raised optic sight without risking damage when holstering.
- Belt Attachment: If it's for OWB, consider a quick attach/detach system for belt loops. For IWB, a clip that securely attaches to the belt but allows for easy removal could be useful.
- Comfort: Padding on the back of the holster where it contacts the body can enhance comfort, especially for prolonged wear.
- Adjustability: Allow for cant adjustment (the angle at which the gun sits in the holster) and ride height adjustment to fit different body types and carry preferences.
- Accessibility: Design with a smooth draw in mind, ensuring no part of the holster catches on the gun or optic during draw.
- Optic Protection: If possible, include a small overhang or cover over the optic to protect it from impacts while in the holster.
- Color/Finish: While not directly affecting function, choose a color or finish that either blends with the gun for a tactical look or contrasts for visibility.
- Additional Features: Consider features like a sweat guard to protect the gun from moisture and a modularity to switch between IWB and OWB if desired.
When designing, always test with the actual firearm to ensure all parts fit correctly and function as intended. This includes testing the draw, re-holstering, and ensuring that the optic does not get damaged or misaligned during use.

You shouldn't drink while working on guns🤐

Gang banger sight. By holding the sight straight and level the gun will be held horizontal, gang banger style.

In this case quoting the Man Of La Mancha would be appropriate:
"To dream the impossible dream"
Or since I would rip that sucker apart:
"To right the unrightable wrong"

I like it I think. Did I say that? You can always count on iron sights. ——Ray

Joking aside: I've cobbled together sort of similar setups to allow a sighted assistant to aim for blind shooters.
My mount wasn't a half circle as pictured but went from rifle bases up and out to the right. Somewhat bulky and not especially rugged but worked as intended. The blind folks weren't complaining.

When you run out of ammo you can beat the assailant with the optic!
Tactical!
