More news from the training world
Yet another firearms instructor that I have a good relationship with has banned the use of the Blackhawk Serpa from his course. I will make myself very clear before anyone things I am going to go off on a tangent and say that the Blackhawk Serpa Sucks and is a piece of shit and should not be ever made. So here me straight, some firearms accessories and gear need more training to use properly and many novice gun owners and ill-trained Law Enforcement are more likely to have an accident with them than with other gear. When it comes to firearms, yes, I have known of more negligent discharges with Glocks than with any double action firearm, am I going to bash Glocks? No, I will not.
I do not have combat experience with a gun holster but I have had extensive experience in dealing with the bad elements of society and understand what stress is. There has been much to say about the designs of retention holsters under stress and the Safariland holsters are the best holster according to what we have seen and heard. Blade Tech seems to also have a good reputation but in all honesty i’ve never head one in my hands so I couldn’t say. The 5.11 thumbdrive holsters are another retention holster that has very limited testing experience so I guess we have to resort to the tried and true.
