The only issue that I have is that the video instructions should contain a little more detail

Photon EDC pack

I really like the Photon EDC pack. The versatility is great and the quality is really good. I run a Glock 45 w/ aimpoint and TLR7 light as a duty gun and am able to switch to concealed carry when needed. For such a large gun set up it conceals fairly well appendix carry and is easy to get used to.

Older photon pack versus new one

This is in comparison to their older photon pack.

The old one didn't come with the backer for IWB carry as it didn't exist at the time, and didn't have the belt quick detach system as part of the pack I can't remember what it came with for OWB carry, though this is arguably better. As for this attempt to compete with Blade Tech and Safari's system, it feels like it doesn't have the same flexibility for cant.

My biggest gripe is that it doesn't come with both a light bearing and non-light bearing holster, though I can see why. It's just extra cost for something most people didn't use.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback and for sharing your experience with both generations of the Photon Holster. We appreciate your observations regarding the mounting system, cant adjustment, and included accessories.

Feedback like yours is valuable as we continue to evaluate future product improvements, and we'll be sure to share your comments with our Product Development Team.

Thank you for choosing Alien Gear Holsters!

Seems like a nice holster for OWB but rides to high for Appendix carry

Seems like a nice holster for OWB but rides to high for Appendix carry. I will keep it for OWB use and stay with the Cloak series for IWB. The Cloak series is still the most comfortable I have found.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback! We're glad to hear you're enjoying the holster for OWB carry and that the Cloak Series continues to be your preferred choice for IWB comfort.

That said, we understand that comfort and preferred ride height—especially for appendix carry—can vary from person to person.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the ride height and will be sure to share it with our Product Development Team as we continue refining our products.

Thank you for being a loyal Alien Gear Customer and for sharing your experience!

Mid. For concealed carry I'll go back to my phlster. This thing is big, bulky and prints hard for appendix IWB

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

EDC pack is great and has everything you need to

EDC pack is great and has everything you need to get started and thier quick detach system is awesome only complaint is the wing doesnt allow the deepest ride setting without being in the way of the draw

Thank you for your feedback!

It deserves at least a 3

It deserves at least a 3. Made of high quality material and very modular. However, conceal-ability is terrible especially for a slimmer guy. Any iwb configuration is just so thick and bulky. I really wanted to enjoy the holster, but I’m going shelf it.

Hi Matthew, thanks for your honest feedback. We're glad you appreciate the quality and modularity, though we're sorry to hear about the concealability issues. Your input helps us improve, and we hope you'll find a better fit in the future. If this holster does not work for your setup, you are welcome to start a return through our return portal at: https://alien-gear-holsters.loopreturns.com/#/ with your AGH order number and follow the steps—it’s quick and easy.
