Given that they’re CNC machined from a chunk of aluminum, making alterations to the CAD file for a Fullsize and Compact variant would be a relatively simple and inexpensive leap from the design that they already have. My hope is that if these Carry grip modules are successful and they get enough interest from consumers for a Fullsize and Compact variant, they’ll put them into production. This would allow someone to either machine or engrave the grip texture of their choosing into the grip module or provides a perfect blank canvas to add grip tape or silicone carbide. Per your other point though, they actually are offering a no-texture “blank” version of the grip module (slightly less expensive too) I also would’ve preferred to see two separate variants, a true Fullsize grip module with full-length dustcover and a true Compact grip module that could take 15-round magazines, but just about every manufacturer offering or developing aftermarket grip modules (Mirzon, Icarus Precision, Polymer80, B&T, etc) seem to be trying to split the difference with one product and are almost exclusively producing Carry dimensioned grip modules - The one exception being Wilson Combat, which is offering Carry and true Fullsize modules from the go. I don’t believe the manufacturer specifically intended for it to be a competition frame, that’s not how they’ve been marketing it on social media and the word “competition” appears nowhere on the product page of their webstore. A metal grip like this is just not gonna provide a sufficient surface for competition as designed in my opinion I would be interested in a perfect situation, but this looks like it has compromises for true competition. Clearly this is a competition frame, why not a full dust cover? Why not offer one with a smooth grip so it is set up to do a silicone carbide grip job? worth the money, period.I am an X5 Legion owner (shot first match with it yesterday) and I like it. quiet release of my pistol is pretty covert, not that loud "pop" some other kydexs. as far as a taco holster, tight construction. no snags and jabs on the holster, the larger claw gets the grip into my gut, to where I can not print with a XL t-shirt. sweat doesn't bleed into it and a quick wipe down with a cloth gets schmoo and lint off easily. the good: unlike my galco summer comfort, its anchored and doesn't move on my hip, all day comfort when I bend. first the bad, the clips move a little too much and its not anchored to my belt as snug as I like so I modified mine to have nylon reinforced loops and snaps, more of a quality of life upgrade. I swooped one before the masses got it, the dudes at lag asked for review, so I will oblige. It does however not seem to have been made for this holster as it does not attach perfectly to it. The wedge does the function well and cants the gun into my belly to conceal the gun better. This is unfortunate as I had hoped to attach the ones I already had. The holes shown in the figure here to attach Ulticlips are not present in mine. My gun Is well concealed, but unfortunately I cannot change the height of the holster clip. There is nice click when you insert the gun and the carbon fiber finish makes it look really good. The holster seems to be well made and holds my gun well. I liked this holster because it contained all the things I knew I needed for AIWB (claw, wedge). I order this holster for my p365XL as I had recently purchased the icarus precision (hybrid pro) frame and did not find any other manufacturer that would accommodate this modification.
