I was on the verge of sending the 509 back before I found Holosun Glock plate from HOTA. Please do chime in with what works or doesn't experience. I assume the other Safariland RDS holsters will as well contrary to Safariland's site oddly indicating some holster models won't work if the belt loop is changed. Safariland 7TS 7xxxx series holsters will accept the 509T with the folding sight hood removed. Looked around and found this plate which allows use of Ameriglo suppressor height sights. I assume this could be avoided by sourcing shorter screws or by torquing the Holosun plate to the Glock plate off pistol, then cut the ends off the screws flush with the Glock plate, but the sight height issue will still be there. The 2nd & bigger problem(at least using the Glock #2 plate) is the Holosun screws are very long and pass thru the #2 plate and contact the Glock slide and will warp the #2 plate while trying to torque them to 20 inch lbs.(I assume this is what FCD refers to on their plates when saying they do not work with Holosuns). a set of XS brand that are very tall appeared iffy.) The minor issue is optic height is going to be taller than most iron sights I am aware of(eyeballing vs. Got a 509T this week and assumed it came with a Glock specific mounting plate after watching an early Sage Dynamics video, but that isn't the case since they come with a plate that mounts to an RMR type base so you end up with a plate mounted to a plate unless using a direct milled slide.
