Rapid Force Duty Holster for Compact Lights

 

 

Two things.

The first is that Safariland has been the gold standard on level 3 retention for a long time.  I have one for my Glock 45.  Having said that it is an OLD design that is anything but intuitive and is in my opinion SLOW!

I made the switch to Alien Gear and don't think I'm going back. Give it a try.  I'm sure one of your buddies is rocking one and will let you try it out.  I get asked all the time at the range about mine and have no problem letting buddies try it out.

Second is that I don't understand why the Military continues to rock these zero retention holsters.  Even with the old skool models they at least had flaps to keep the thing inside the holster and as much swamp juice outside of it (or sand, snow...wherever you're operating).

Seeing all these SOCOM bubbas and conventional forces wearing holsters with no retention with all the stuff they do is a mind fuck to me.

A simple complaint but I would sure love an answer.

I got a bonus question too.  I have red dots on all my pistols (only 4) and rifles.  Buying an A300 Ultima and will put one on that shotgun too.

So why all these pistols floating around in the military and federal law enforcement without red dots? 

Local Law Enforcement and Armed citizens ahead of the military? Amazing!
