How to EDC an MD4 on your body?

[Olumin]

I like the sling idea lol.

Gotta love how a HD counts a huge nowadays, when even the average 3C/D maglite back then was longer.

Just picked this up from Legion Arms on amazon. Works great with the plain tailcap on my MD2 and MD3- obvious the tri cap won't fit. Bit of a high rider for the MD4, I suppose.

@Buck91 that looks neat. I'll look into it. Thanks!

Get a strap. And a bigger light…… amateurs. 😏

Maglite loop in all seriousness

A MD4 with a M91B or M91T head fits perfectly in the zippered right-front pocket of Men's DuluthFlex Fire Hose Relaxed Fit Foreman Pants. Perfectly as in overall length and ease/comfort of carry.

That is a deep pocket.

NH, when you have time shoot a photo?
That zippered pocket is Not visible on Duluth page, at least not that I can make out.
The pocket must be on right side along outer seam..
Fire Hose material, is it a canvas duck material?

Ps. I like the old guys review that has a leaky bladder lol

Now pants made out of real fire hose material would be for super hard users.
That stuff is thick.
I guess i'll have to make my own pair. Obviously there's a need here.

I use "pass thru" belt holsters when carrying 6P/9P's or MD2/MD3's.

Could certainly use it with MD4's.

I believe this one is from Safariland.

I just started using one of these. They work great

Yes they do!

I've been using them for years, they are great because you can change the light you're carrying easily.

Hope you get as much use out of yours, as I do mine.

Here's the MD4 light placed on the pants, positioned directly on top of the pocket;

Here's the light inserted in the pocket - as you can see it fits quite nicely. With the pocket zippered closed the light is entirely hidden, and rides more on the outside of the leg so it does not interfere with moving or sitting;

This has got to be the very best set-up for MD4 body. It's like having a built-in holster

I usually wear Key or D!ckie dungarees and use the lower leg side pocket for MD2. Unfortunately MD4 is positioned too low, size and length, doesn't work.

Thanks for taking time to post photos!

I used to stick it almost horizontally in my waistband, across my belly. It was fairly comfortable even when sitting in the car.

That actually doesn't sound bad at all, in my head at least, as I've never seen it in person. Which head were you doing this with?

Can you use that with a Hound Dog Super head? I'm going to need a holster for a couple Hound Dog Super lights coming up soon for work.

Malkoff makes a holster for your light. I haven't tried it but looks like a winner.

Thanks guys. I scrolled past that holster hundreds of times on theMalkoff site, and never stopped to look that it worked for Hound Dog Super. @NH Lumens, that holster looks like it clears a tricap, have you tried one with it? Thanks

Yes sir, you certainly can.
