Fobus makes 1, and blade tech. A few others make drop leg holsters too.

i have a fobus holster for my 21 and they are hard to hide because they stick out...im sure the light combo one does the same thing

I don't think anyone makes a holster good enough to easily hide a gun and light combo. Its just too big to easily conceal. Unless you are a really big guy, wearing loose clothes I cannot see how you can reasonably hide a gun /light combo.

Ask jarhead79 if he can make one for you.

Ill tell you about these from a custom makers point of view..others may feel differently. The light is directly in front of the trigger guard. In order to make a holster that the light goes into, the trigger guard has to have this gaping hole that is big enough to let your finger into.

Do you see where Im going with this? On a glock.....I wouldnt even consider getting one. In a panic situation you reach for your gun...finger down the side of the frame, like we are all trained to do, and your trigger is right there, next to your finger which is inside of the holster.

Its even more dangerous when reholstering.....your finger is inside of the holster and when you pull your hand out, your finger can brush the trigger on the upward motion......"BOOM".

Weve had a couple of local LEO's shoot themselves this way.
For me its just too much liability to even consider anything.

Good luck on your quest................Shoot well and god bless

Best I know of is made by C Rusty Sherrick http://www.c-rusty.com, it's called the "Tactical Light Holster" and is made of horsehide. For $100 it's a great deal and Rusty makes some awesome holsters! Here's a pic:
