Awesome holster...WHEN you keep the Xiphos mounted on your weapon. Otherwise stick with the non-lightbearing model so that your weapon won't have "wiggle room" from where the light is supposed to be. Also, as mentioned before... if you have issues with your holster bumping the seatbelt when you are in the car, try the hi-rise adaptor plate that replaces the standard duty platform.

This is a great holster. It is well made and holds up well. The light that comes with it works and has a good battery life.

Fastest level 3 holster I have ever used. Excellent retention with the Xiphos light attatched and the hood wont lock you out like other brands.

Great..........

This is an excellent product. It allows for a natural draw and the light is very effective as well.

I like this holster, it take some getting use to. once you have the hang of it. Its a great holster

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.

I will admit I was skeptical of the Serpa Level 3 as it began showing up around my department. Currently four carry it, two light-bearing, two without. One went back to his SS III because it was what he was used to, so I bought his Serpa and light. I have owned and used a Gould &Goodrich Astro, Uncle Mike's Pro 3, and Safariland 6280 and 070 SS III. Out of all the holsters I have used the Serpa feels the most intuitive for me when it comes to drawing. It takes my favorite features and combines them into one holster, like securing the weapon automatically upon reholster. While the issue of dirt jamming a release is a concern, one must realize that any piece of equipment you own is worth taking care of, and that means routine maintenance, checking that the holster is free and clear of debris.

I'm very pleased with this holster and the Xiphos tac light it came with. It rides a little lower on the hip for a more natural draw and is smoooooth. The Xiphos is an excellent light, very bright, easy to use, easy to mount, strobe feature... very nice!

Great level 3 holster. All officers should invest in a level 3.

level 3 is the only way to go

I have had this holster and light for about 8 months now. I love it. Learning to draw from it was quite fast. Several members of my department have them and they love them too. The only issue I had at first was the positioning on the belt. I was used to a mid ride and this is a low ride. I got over that fast. Check it out and you might love it.

I used this holster all the way through the academy very good quality holster good with retention good with fast and easy access for the officer light weight easy draw and fast auto lock return only issue was it came with a low ride positioned belt assembly it is good if you have long arms but if you have lots of room in the seat of you car but if you dont it digs in and lifts your belt up other than that i give it 5 stars plus it looks cool as hell

very easy to use and still secure

got the combo with the xyphos light, it is a great level III that is super fast.

I carry my GLOCK 17 w/TLR-1 in this rig & love how secure it is.
