    I just got this holster the other day and is comfortable to wear. it automatically locks your weapon in the holster and will not allow it to come out until you press the button that is on the side. This holster is also light weight.

    I have this for my personal weapon. I have tried to get the gun out without pushing the button and it will NOT come out! Great holster!

    I LOVE THIS HOLSTER!!!!!! I initially had a Bianchi and took it back. This one is light weight and your firearm stays secure until you press the button. The weapon retention trainer had a time trying to get my gun; I won. :)

    I use this holster with my XD. The retention is great as well as the smoothness of my draw. When I carry with this holster people ask me why I don't have it strapped in and I tell them that I don't need a thumb break strap. When they find that out they try and pull my gun out and are dumbpfounded. They don't even see me push the button when I draw.Great holster

    Nice holster, it may not be the cheapest out there, but the features speak for themselves. Very good value considering you'll need to buy two of the "cheapies" just to keep up with this one.

    An excellent retention holster- keeps your firearm secure yet quickly accessable.

    Unholster is smooth and effective, reholster gives you peace of mind with the securing click.

    I Love this holster! The gun stays secure until you want it. I use it with my Glock 35 and its a pretty sweet gig... The glock hangs out the bottom about an inch. Looks awesome !

    Too easy for the bad guy to disarm the officer. I have done several demonstrations for officers about how easy it is to get this gun out of the holster from many postions (front, rear and ground). Also, have not tried this yet - but will this gun come out of the holster after the officer is rolling around on the snowy ground and snow get packed inside the holster release button? Very difficult to access with your non-shooting hand should your dominate shooting hand get disable in a gun fight, etc.

    The Serpa is a poorly designed but well marketed holster that has a user to press in with the finger tip as they draw their pistol.

    Some times the finger ends up right on the trigger pressing inward well before it would be safe to do.

    I have also seen seasoned operators unable to draw from a Serpa holster under stress. I have also seen debris accumulate under the release button and "lock" the holster.

    My off duty/court holster. You can't say enough about the product. The fact that Blackhawk gives you the ability to change from belt to paddle by simply unscrewing a few screws, and also includes the paddle and belt assembly is awesome.

    I've been thru hundreds of holster's and this is the one! Comfortable, lightweight. Very easy to use, the release button becomes second nature after just a few practice runs. Also, extrememly secure inside belt locking....I have trouble getting it off so I know the bad guy would. Also very durable, resist's scrapes and scuffs.

    This is a great holster that the only problem is that it is scuffing my gun a little in the front corners. I disagree that it is difficult to access with the non dominant hand BUT you do have to do a little manipulating to turn it from upside down to right side up with your other hand but +1 for me is that i am a little ambidextrous shooting wise. I have done training with my friends where they try to take my gun at random and planned times and its a little rough house but i always come out on top with my gun drawn. Only thing i need to work on is re-holstering it with-out looking. A talent i like to have ;].

    I have the paddel and if im in a rush i just slide it on and it stays put.

    love this holster, i just go one for off-duty carry and its great, not too hard to conceal, expecially with it being winter. Great retention and looks great too.
