Works better then I thought. WILL NOT WORK if you have a threaded barrel. Wish they made one for the FN-57. Recommend to all who use flashlight, laser or both.

Pros:  The holster fits a few different models of firearms. It fits any light/laser. Addresses some retention concerns. Very fast to draw.
Cons:  Can be easy to get out of the holster by a bad guy. Can take some training to get used to.
Would recommend:  yes

The Fobus Roto-Tactical holster is a unique holster because it can incorporate any light or laser that is rail mounted. The Roto-Tactical holster fits a variety of firearms. If you have different guns, you can use the same holster for it. The one I purchased fits the S&W M&P9, M&P40, and also the full size M&P45. I found this holster to be a great value. It takes a little getting used to but requires much less training than other holster systems out there. My only concern with the holster is retention from backward grabs. I think the leather button strap will suffice as a secure way to carry a weapon however. For concealed carry the retention concerns I have are small. As a police officer you would most likely want a holster with higher security than this. How is the comfort? Compared to Blackhawk Serpa holsters, the paddle configuration is much more comfortable and it takes up less space on the belt. With a Serpa holster, the paddle goes from 1 or 2 o'clock all the way to 5. For people ...

On their web site I tried to find a holster to fit my Baby Eagle with a Viridian GEN2X5L laser/tactical light. None were listed. Since CZ pistols are a close enough match I searched for a holster for a CZ and found GLT17RP listed as a match (on Planet it list for a Glock and Ruger and not Cz, same number if you look on Fobus web site). I took a chance it may work out. Not perfect but, it works well enough and will fit my need.

Pros:  Purchased for S&W M&P 40 for use when tactical light will be attached to gun.
Cons:  Isn't leather......miss that leather smell
Would recommend:  yes

My fit with full size M&P was snug, I would say fobus did a good job in getting that right, at least on the M&P.Draw, and reholstering takes a little practice,but no big problem...Not a real good for conceal carry, but loose fitted jacket should suffice the cover up....My M&P with light is my bedside buddy at night.....But who knows when it might accompany me on a late evening stroll....

I purchased this holster for my SIG226R with a Viridian C5L. My gun fits in the holster snugly, however the thumb break does not fit over the trigger guard. Despite Fobus.com saying this holster will work with specific guns call or e-mail to verify before spending money!

Pros:  Nice overall design.
Cons:  Doesn't Fit Glock 17 with Insight M6 Lights
Would recommend:  yes

I bought this hoping to use it with my Glock 17 that has an Insight M6 light attached. Unfortunately, it doesn't fit well. When the pistol is in the holster the M6's on/of switch rubs on the part of the holsters trigger guard. This not only cause the light to turn on and off by itself when it is holstered. It almost always causes the light to turn on when drawing. I had to shave a small amount of plastic off the holster to get it to fit without rubbing.

Works well for my Walther QA99/.40 cal. w/ tactical light. Strap secures firearm and protects trigger nicely against accidental discharge.
