I know this is a video about the wedges, but I just checked Tier1 site to order a axis elite holster for my full size Walther PDP and I also have an Inforce Wild 2 but their drop down list doesn’t have an option for the Inforce anymore. Bummer! I already have an Axis Elite for my 5 inch PDP but they only offer it for the 4.5 inch PDP. It sticks out a half inch past the bottom of the holster, which is no big deal to me because the wedge keeps the end of the slide off of my skin. If it didn’t during high rojnd count training days, that would be a REAL hot spot. 😳
Thanks for the video. I have a Crossbreed Reckoning holster. Do you think these wedges would be ok with a leather backing instead of kydex? I want the wedge more to help with concealment, not necessarily for comfort.
I just ordered the large wide size for a Vedder light tuck that fits a CZ P07. I was torn between the wide and regular. Will they form and stick to slight slopes? If not I'm hoping an razer knife can trim them a bit? Guess I'll find out in a couple of days....
Thanks for reviewing these. I’m trying to decide on the regular width and wide width and what size. The sample pack seems to be somewhat wasteful Do you use the wedge on both the holster and mag carrier? Do you think the wedge would also work on a different holster? Thanks in advance
I use the large original wedge on my tier1 and only use one wedge on the holster. You could technically put one on the mag holster but it doesn't "dig" as much as the holster, so you probably won't find that necessary. As far as using on different holsters, as long as it is kydex or something similar it should stick just fine. Just remember to clean and dry your holster right before application to avoid the wedge not adhering well. Hope this helps.
Cole hit the nail on the head with the fitment and wedge setup. I don’t use one on the mag side either for similar reasons. They should also work fine on any kydex for sure, just clean it off as mentioned. As far as sizing goes, it can be a bit tricky. We have another video on the channel that serves as a sizing guide to help with this. Tier 1 Concealed Foam Wedge Pack Overview and Sizing Guide ua-cam.com/video/2EhPf85VvSs/v-deo.html Regular vs. wide is up to you, but I’d recommend going wide for larger setups, think full sized carry or larger weapon lights. If you carry something smaller, like a Hellcat or P365 size, the wide wedges might be too big for the holster.
@@RangeDay thanks for all the replies. I’ve been trying them out with just tape to see where the placement feels best and which size. The M or Large I feel are the best so far. Thank you again for making such a great and informative video
@@RangeDay I just ordered the no weapon light Axis Agis for the M&P Ca 9mm shield. Was wondering the same thing in regards to which wedge I needed to chose. Good thing I chose standard pack since the Shield is a micro single stack
They’re a tad bulky as I mentioned in the video, probably should’ve went a size smaller. Very comfortable nonetheless with a bigger light on the setup though.
I just ordered a wide medium for my 19x but my light is the smaller tlr-7 so it shouldn't stick down further but I'm worried the medium might not be big enough now.
Probably would work just fine, unless it’s for a weapon that’s on the smaller end. Sub-compact sized holsters might not pair well if the wide wedge is just too big to fit.

I recommend installing Velcro to the back of the holster and wedges so that you can see what size is most comfortable.
Exactly the video i needed. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Great vid. Helped me with the same setup for my glock19/19x and x300ua. Thanks brother!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching

You shouldn’t have a problem Scott, they’ll mold a good bit for what you’ll need.
Great video . A lot of info 👍
Glad it was helpful!
I got the large, figure if I don't like it I can cut it down
Always an option for sure. They do compress slightly after use though.

Regular vs. wide is up to you, but I’d recommend going wide for larger setups, think full sized carry or larger weapon lights. If you carry something smaller, like a Hellcat or P365 size, the wide wedges might be too big for the holster.

I have liked the wide a lot better
They’re a tad bulky as I mentioned in the video, probably should’ve went a size smaller. Very comfortable nonetheless with a bigger light on the setup though.
Did you size up from a medium to a large due to the larger light or to better fit the wider wedge?
I just ordered a wide medium for my 19x but my light is the smaller tlr-7 so it shouldn't stick down further but I'm worried the medium might not be big enough now.
I think the medium will be a good fit for you. I picked the large due to the light but almost wish I stayed with the medium.
@@RangeDay thanks!
would wide wedge work with holster without light?
Probably would work just fine, unless it’s for a weapon that’s on the smaller end. Sub-compact sized holsters might not pair well if the wide wedge is just too big to fit.
How much “give” do they have? Are they softer, or more rigid?
More rigid acting than the regular wedges. Larger wedge area results in less overall pressure on the wedge, so it will compress less.
@@RangeDay thanks! I absolutely thought they were soft, and would flatten out. Thanks for the info
The Enigma Holster is 100x times more comfortable than Teir 1’s holsters but teir 1’s wedges are the best wedges on the market
Haven’t heard of the Enigma brand before. We’ll have to give them a look!
