My gf bought me a Sig SP2022 for Chirstmas (but I'm not allowed to play with it yet).

I have gotten a nice De Santis OWB holster fot it, but I'd like a shoulder rig that is capable of holding it with a TLR1 attached to the front for night time outings.

So far anything I've found only just has room for the pistol itself, no light.
 
Leather concealment holsters for guns with mounted lights are relatively rare. Most holster for guns with mounted lights are kydex. There are very few, if any kydex shoulder holsters. I can't think of any shoulder holster for a gun with a mounted light. You options will be very limited.
 
Most of the lighted pistol holsters I have seen are all kydex, or kydex/leather hybrids with kydex being the main part and leather being a backing material, such as the crossbreed supertuck.

I have thought about making a horizontal kydex shoulder holster using a Blade Tech WRS loop, but life keeps pushing projects onto the back burner.

If you're good with your hands, there is a lot of DIY kydex and leather info out there... The only kydex shoulder holsters and leather holsters for lighted pistols were home made - and the leather holster ended up being scrapped because it collapsed around the light.
 
Actually, a few months ago I started working with leather as a hobby and started on a shoulder rig to go with my RIA 1911 and the TLR-1. While I'm satisfied with what I've made, it was a lot of time and work to make it, especially for a noobie. I was hoping there would be something that I could just plug and play with the Sig.

That looks pretty good, although I would add some grommets to the holes.

You would think that with weaponlights becoming more common, shoulder holsters for lighted pistols would be available, however shoulder holsters aren't near as common as belt holsters, so I could see why I dont see any.

You could try to adapt a pancake kydex holster, such as Raven Concealment, to your harness, however I don't know if they offer a thumb break. I dont think I would trust friction retention on a horizontal shoulder rig.
 
Gun shows usually have venders selling holsters. Plus if you find one you like, they`ll form it for you.


"Not allowed to play with it yet." I know what you mean but bad choice of words.
 
You ever used a shoulder holster? Ain't the same as a belt holster.
Lose the 'As seen on TV' flashlight. Unnecessary weight and bulk.
Started working with leather as a hobby years ago and won't buy a factory made holster. Dye is pricey here too. $8 plus for 4 ounces. Started making black(hides a multitude of sins) out of vinegar, steel wool and black walnut bark. Has to be completely dry(or use Saran wrap) for wet forming. Vinegar eats bluing right to bare metal
