I’m looking for a (belt) holster for my SP10A and my SP33. I’m using my SP10A as an EDC and it’s getting scratched. I don’t mind the scratches too much but I like it to last. Any ideas?
Maybe this thread can help.
I have one Convoy holster, it’s a perfect for my Convoy S3 (115mm length, 22mm diameter, same size as many “one 18650 pocket rockets”).
Thanks!
This one fit SP33 perfectly good quality and cheap https://www.aliexpress.com/item/XTAR-T220-Flashlight-Pouch-Flashlight-Holster-Case-hunting-accessories-Portable-Durable-Outdoor-for-Fenix-XTAR-TZ20/32688841116.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dL136iK
Thanks! I’ll be ordering it!
Any more suggestions for my SP10A?
Go to AX or Amazon and goggle “flashbang pouch”. I got a few that stretch-fit even Q8s, ’though very very snugly (as in you’d need to take off the holster to work the Q8 back into it). I just use it as a protective cover/case for a Q8, not to carry one.
An SP33 should just drop right in.
Oh yeah, in the thread mentioned above, I pointed out the now-discontinued Jetbeam holsters in 3 sizes, the smallest of which fit AA lights perfectly. I think now FT has XTAR holsters instead. Or did I get ’em on AX? Eh, wherever… Nice holsters that fit AA lights are plentiful.
(Oh yeah) ², also keep in mind that holsters that only have a MOLLE attachment can sooooooooo easily unsnap and fall right off when you least expect it. So make sure the holster(s) you get have a closed sewn loop at the very least, even if they have a 2nd MOLLE strap as well.
Whenever possible, I try to “weave” a MOLLE strap through the loops vs just sliding it through, for added friction and a little bit more protection against quietly falling off. A slippery leather belt? It’d fall off and you’d never know it ’til way later.
I’ve never had problems with that really. Doesn’t hurt to have a paracord loop as backup though or sow it shut
All it takes is once…
The “J2” (middle size - Reference ) can still be found here and here .
I like them because they have the metal ring and dual loop. The XTAR is probably the closest substitute that’s more readily available.
I know that doesn’t help the OP, since the J2 is best suited for the typical 18650 tube light, and the J1 may be harder to find; I can’t say, since I don’t have any 14500/AA lights. But some digging may turn them up with or without the Jetbeam labeling. The holster Convoy sells for the C8 is probably closest to the J3, but it lacks a ring of any kind.
Of the 3 sizes of Jetbeams, the smallest one fits AA lights like the SP10, River Rock AA (what I got ’em for originally), etc.
The middle size fits typische tubelights like the Convoy S-series.
The biggest size fits C8s (head-up) quite nicely.
Don’t have any of the bigger ones “out” to be able to test-fit a SP33, else I’d try it. I generally use the holsters as protective cases vs carrying them.
Holster for my SOFIRN SP33. The size is perfect.
