This adapter plate saves you roughly $50 compared with buying PHLSTER’s retarded clamshell Kydex holster, and avoids the need to spend about $100 on an alternative holster.
It lets you use an Alien Gear Photon holster (including light-bearing models) with the Enigma platform while retaining the benefits of Kydex and fast shipping from common retailers.

It survived a range session and a Chinese buffet without issue so here it is.

This adapter allows you to use an Alien Gear Photon holster for compact carry pistols such as the Hellcat Pro.
These pistols sit significantly lower than full-size pistols, and the Photon’s mounting pattern is the same whether the holster is light-bearing or not.
I made this for a Hellcat PRO with an optic cut and a TLR-7X sub specifically for the Hellcat, but the adapter will work with any Photon holster as it uses the same pattern.

The adapter adds a slight amount of bulk (about 1/8"). I did not find this noticeable.

I specifically used the built-in claw version, although it would likely work fine without it.
The claw was positioned to contact the squared side of the Enigma near the trigger-guard section of the holster.
I have it mounted with a slight cant on the far right of the mounting points on a light-bearing Enigma plate.
This is a personal preference, so you may need to design or position your own wing/claw.
I’ve included an adapter file with holes to mount a claw—either use that file and make your own claw or redesign the built-in claw to suit your needs.

print in PLA+(pro) or PETG. It wont contact your skin so carbon fiber is also fine but dont waste your money, PETG is perfect for this.

hardware:
the photon holster comes with hardware but between the hardware to mount to the plate, then the engima, and also if you are making your own claw you will need chicago screws

this is the same hardware for the riptide holster. Print that if you havent yet, its a very good level 1 retention holster. It's an IWB holster but I also made an OWB version.

nightstalker is garbage, dont print that but thats also the same hardware if you made the mistake.
