I made this video in an effort to clarify and help others visualize some of the "design flaws" some other people refer to when talking about the Blackhawk SERPA level II and III retention holsters.

  • Somebody may have said this already, but shouldn't your weapon be on safe while it's in the holster?

  • @libra8a Depends on the gun. If it's a SAO like a 1911, then yes you want it cocked and locked. If it's a DA/SA like a Beretta 92, Sig, CZ, etc then you want it decocked and OFF SAFE as you still have the heavy DA pull so a safety is unnecessary at that point.

  • Nice gutt. How about cardiovascular training????

  • @Rawdog146 That's ballistic protection son, I can stop at least a .38spl! ;-) My gut is Level IIIA. In all seriousness though, being physically fit is extremely important when it comes to this stuff. Since that video I've dropped 35lbs. Still have plenty to go but I'm getting there.

  • As an officer, I can tell you that you should train in less stressful situations so that when you train in more stressful situations you are able to perform at your best. If officers have encountered ADs during stressful traing, it's because they haven't trained properly in low stress situations. Crawl before you walk; walk before you run.

  • @libra8a i never put the safety on and i only shot myself once. in 40 years of carrying. relax.

  • If you can't keep your thinger off the trigger until you are ready to fire you should not be using a gun.

  • @majestytd Like ProjectEasyStreet said, this holster wasn't really made for concealment. However, if wearing a jacket or baggy overshirt it works quite well to hide the weapon on your side.

  • OMG why do people feel the need to some some random internet youtube viewers that the gun is empty!?!

  • @ProjectEasyStreet I ordered one in July for a Kimber Warrior. It took all of 13 weeks. But it was absolutely worth it. That holster has made the gun so stable and locked in that I forget its there.

  • @TheTacticalShooter Heck yeah! Raven is excellent quality. I already placed my order for one, and now the wait begins. ;-)  They are worth it though.
