Question on Holster for 4.25 Emissary AOS

So apparently I did it again. Back a year or so ago when I bought a Glock 23 Gen 5, it took me forever to find a holster as the slide was a bit wider than the Gen 4 so Gen 4 holsters wouldn’t work. Took forever for solid holster makers to catch up and some still haven’t.

Yesterday I put one of the new Emissary AOS on order (4.25 .45 model). Following the order, I started researching holsters. And yet again it seems the makers are very slow to support this gun. If I’m not mistaken, the newest Emissary’s were announced beginning of this year (months ago). The only difference in the most recent is they are optic ready.

This newest Emissary’s has a full rail and a full dust cover where the older Emissary appears to not have either (so I’m 99% sure those older holsters won’t work).

Anybody got a lead on a leather holster maker supporting the new 1911 Emissary AOS models? Because of the square trigger guard, I don’t think any generic 1911 holster would work.

I can personally recommend craft, having many of theirs, however they are mostly fabric not leather but take a look -

Thanks. I sent Falco holsters a query (I think they are affiliated with Craft - same ads anyway). I’ve bought from Falco before and was pleased with their work.

Check out Galco Avenger holster have two look great very functional. Just my opinion.
 
I found one at mtrcustomleather. They actually had it listed in their drop down, offered an optic cut with a way to provide details of what your mounting so I could include which SA plate and which optic, as well as some other options I like. Bonus was the availability to pay a bit more and significantly cut wait time which is phenomenal on a custom leather holster. Pic below.
