Any body know of a decently priced decent quality level one retention holster for a 4.25" M&P 9 with an RMR mounted?

I had a Safariland 6378 before the red dot and I really like the thumb activated retention and I was going to modify it but the part I would need to trim is where the retention system is. I just want something to wear to the range and out in the woods so I don't care about concealment at all. Just something to put on my belt that is comfortable and a decent retention system. I don't mind going with something that uses the index finger to activate the retention I just prefer using the thumb. It's not something I use a lot so I want to keep the cost relatively low.

Anybody have any experience with either of these?

Did you ever end up finding a retention holster for the M&P with RMR? I have been looking all over for this as well but with the addition of a SF X300 light.

Safariland makes one for a RMR'd Glock with a WML but not for a M&P. Model 6354DO ALS® Optic Tactical Holster | Safariland?

I did find a Safariland holster for a M&P w/ RMR here: ALS P-2 Optic Sight Holster
Unfortunately they do not make this configuration to accept a light as well.

The next move on my list would be to get a SLS only Safariland (6280, 6285, 6004) that fits the gun with a WML and then modify the holster to fit the RMR.
