Everyone said good things about em. I figured hey ill try. Then saw in email wait time is 3-4 weeks before it even ships. Then another 3-5 days after... That sucks

I got that same email myself.
It is my personal belief they are either a reseller of Old Faithful or it's the same guy...not sure.
They have all the exact same specs and design. Their website talks about the same features and even talks about Galco and Crossbreed the same way.

I emailed them as well...however, I ordered my Old Faithful a few weeks ago. It's supposed to ship anywhere from tomorrow to the 21st.
Going to need to order a new shell for it for my new 40c...

If you compare the pricing from OF to Alien, they're within 2 bucks.

Yeah thats bs. I wanted it like within a week like normal shipping. Not wait over a month

Same with my crossbreed. Waited about 4 weeks. I thought that was crazy

I think the problem is they are form fitting these per order for the kydex...and probably cutting the leather to order as well.
I see most of the hybrid companies with leather and kydex are operating in the same wait window.

I have a couple AG Holsters and absolutely love them. It is one of the most comfortable holsters that I have ever owned. i have one for my sd9ve/40 and my 1911. I can not recommend them enough for a great economical IWB holster.

I could have ordered a galco king tuk. Same day shipping

D'oh...I used Bersaforums for 15 or 20% off.
Mine was $42.97 shipped, and I paid $3 extra for black...
So standard brown shipped would've been 39.97...

I did the same but since I finally got it. I can say Definetly worth the wait

I ordered one for my .40ve and it took a few weeks, but the cost of the hybrid and the quality of it, totally outweighs the long wait time.
I wear mine daily and half the time I forget its on. Very comfortable.

Alien Gear

Been using one for my 3913. Comfortable......yeah. Retention....none whatsoever. Checked the shell to ensure correct one. Switched the little rubber spacers to shortest ones. Nothing. Changed to the M&P45C shell. Same thing. Oh well. no biggie. Only spent $55.00 with the extra shell and it does have a 30 day money back. So, it has now been 3 days of calling and emailing and nothing. Company seems to have disappeared!! I guess for me, it did not work out. Glad they have worked out for you guys!

I have the Old Faithful (same design, company making parts and city as AG) as well as had the AG (sold it to a member).
Retention was not an issue with either, for my SD40VE or my 40c.

I could tighten it down so far the damn thing wouldn't come out.
Are you checking retention by turning it upside down with the weapon in, are having it on your person and trying to draw it?

You can take a heat gun or hair dryer, warm up the area (with an unloaded/safety checked weapon) with the pistol in it, front of the trigger guard on the kydex, and push it in a little to get more retention.
