NEXTORCH V5 Tactical Flashlight Holster with Lever Side Lock System Only for 1"-1.25" Diameter Flashlight (Holster Head Diameter 0.78"-1.18" Bottom Diameter 1.18") (V51)

The V51 Tactical Flashlight Holster fits perfectly on my duty belt and securely holds my Nightstick USB-558XL flashlight. The lever side lock system ensures the flashlight stays in place, even during movement. I also like the adjustable belt width function, which makes it easy to customize for a snug fit. The locking design adds extra security. It’s durable, reliable, and a great choice for anyone needing a secure holster for their flashlight.

The material is heavy-duty, adjustable and looks great. Added to my streamlight 2.0 protac it fits great. You can adjust the retention and the lock it really positive. I added it to my duty belt and it has been great, no jiggling or moving around, super secure and tight. Love it!!

I had been using the Nextorch V5 holster for two years to carry my Surefire Fury Intellibeam, and I really like it, especially for the latch mechanism and its ability to adjust for angle for carrying comfort.Much as I like the V5, I was interested to see that Nextorch has a bit of an upgrade with their V51 holster, namely for having a positively locking mechanism for the angle adjustment (the V5 relies on detents that do not lock) and the ability to put onto a belt with a side latch instead of having to thread it onto the belt.The flashlight latch mechanism is essentially unchanged, so that's not a problem at all, but I can now say, after having carried my flashlight on a daily basis for work with the new V51, that the new enhancements are excellent, improving carrying comfort and ease of use significantly.I also like how the holster is a bit more rigid, and the belt clip mechanism has another enhance with a sliding clamp to allow it to stay more rigid with various belt widths.I would call the V5 holster a four-star flashlight holster, but the V51 is definitely a five-star.I'll be using this for years (decades?) to come.Excellent work, Nextorch.Whoever is running your R&D department really got it right.

So, I really like the holder, rotates easily, but very tactile, clips on your belt easily, and adjusts to different belt sizes. Seems really durable, locks onto the barrel of the flashlight, and that's adjustable as well.My issues. You have to make certain that it's clipped onto your belt well, it's popped off on me a few times, to be fair, I'm under a plate carrier quite a bit, and most of the times it's popped off has been when I was under armor. My biggest issue, is I have an adult sized flashlight (Nightstick 9514XL), and while it has what I consider to be an average sized head for a duty carry light, it's WAY to big for this holder... No, I didn't check it first, but it's an average sized light, so I assumed (yes, I know) that it would fit. Having bought it, and liking it, I went and looked to see if they had a larger version, but they don't carry anything that will fit my light.... SO, I carry it upside down, which is still ok, but it would be nice if they would make a grown up light carrier.

Perfect for my several of my streamlights, love the durability and functions. Not the lowest profile but for me that works great since I may be wearing layers during most seasons working in inclement weather conditions. Wearing gloves of most thickness does not interfere with the operating functions unless they are THICK gloves meant for Mt Everest. Overall would recommend purchasing to anybody that has any job that requires them to have their light at the ready.

I’ve carried a flashlight everyday for decades. So I’ve been on the lookout for the best holster for my lights. This can’t accommodate all of them, but for those it does, it carries them well. One thing is that it has a tension tightener screw. So you do have some wiggle room. With this holster you can unlock it and rotate the light clock-or counter-clockwise, then it can be locked in that place. You can remove the light from the mount without taking out/off of its holster feature. Basically it’s two holsters. One that the light fits into that the light itself can be totally removed from. And then there’s the mount that the “holster” connects to. The mount stays on your belt. It’s basically a quick release system. The belt side of it can accommodate multiple sized belts. Oh yeah, the underside is open. So you can shine the light through. And through where ever you have it locked in place at.

Well made, great design, easy to use

Very versatile for my needs! I was able to use with two different make and model flashlights without having trouble.
