Blackhawk, SERPA® Sportster® Glock

I just picked up a new Ruger SR1911 (.45) a few months ago and plan for occasional conceal carry. I can't stand to have a paddle holster to poke me in the side or back and wanted to use something more comfortable. Having read the reviews for this holster, I thought I'd try it. This fits my new SR1911 like a glove. I'm able to loop my belt through it and make adjustments for a better fit. It's very lightweight and locks my pistol in place nice and secure. The finger tip lock on the holster holds very well with an easy reach for rapid draw, allowing for smooth draw of the firearm. It sticks close to my body, making a large .45 somewhat unnoticeable if a shirt covers it. The black cover matches my new Ruger perfectly. It's not a cheap feeling holster like what you would have from a soft material like Kevlar. This will almost certainly become my new CC holster.

Last year I purchased a Springfield Armory SA-35 (Browning Hi Power clone, but 50% better). After I broke it in I started carrying it in a quality good morning Galco IWB holster. It did a good job hiding it but just wasn’t comfortable after wearing it 12-18 hours. I took a chance and bought this one. Absolutely love it! It does a decent job concealing but it doesn’t move any on my belt and is lined up perfectly for extremely fast draws. It’s extremely comfortable and the lock is a great safety feature. This was is a quality holder and has stood up great for the abuse I put it through daily. Fantastic Deal!! Highly recommend it for anyone carrying a full size, all steel weapon that is hefty, not a plastic weapon. It’s super comfortable to wear all day in any weather. Was always concerned getting a $140.00 holster wet multiple times. I would have paid twice as much for it, now that I’ve been wearing it daily for over 3 months and counting. You will be impressed with the quality and convenience of a Paddle Holster like this one! Guaranteed!

Firearm fits well and retention works well. Easy to use.

This is a nice holster. It holds my 1911 very snug, and does not slide around on my belt. I've had issues with other paddle holsters wiggling around when you walk or sit down. Especially in the case of a 1911, since it is a little heavy. No issues there with this holster. Great for range use and fits close to your body so it'd be fine for concealed carry as well. It is grey and not black, not a big deal for me but I noticed some reviewers were caught off guard by that.Only downside is that I can see it is a little bit weaker material than its carbon fiber cousin. Just fine for occasional concealed carry and range use. I do think it would be worth it to get the carbon fiber model for full time carry or Law Enforcement use.All in all I'm very happy with it and it works well for what I need.

First off let me state that this is not a toy it is a fully functional holster intended for real firearms thus why some may experience problems with their AIRSOFT guns not fitting the holster,should consider the fact that airsoft guns are not build to the same dimensions as real firearms. Okay now with that said and done I have carried one of the carbon fiber serpa drop legs in the service now for over 5 years and have torture tested them in combat in afghanistan and they hold up remarkably well. This holster fits and retains my rock island armory 1911a2 very well and with no problems. The fact that you can take this holster apart and attach it to an existing serpa drop leg is a plus for sure. I bought two of these holsters and I have put them through hell and gone and severe torture testing and it took me about an hour to destroy one using every day accident scenarios. Over all great holster for a great weapon. 5 for 5 on this. P.S. and for those that want the mag holder Serpa does make them but they dont attach to the holster themselves best bet is to get a paddle mag holder for your mags or a belt clip. Hope this helps all keep your feet dry and your weapon high.

I like this holster, It fits my Girsan 1911 Govt model perfectly. You can change the positions just by adjuting the screws to make it comfortable. Since i got a belly it is hard to find a good spot to keep it in where my fat rolls dont get in the way. Deffinelty locks into place, Wont get taken off your hip. Reccomend

I love BlackHawk holsters they always come through with there products. There high quality is always good, comfortable for carrying, and all there holsters for level 2 & 3 are perfect for every day tasks, travels, and outdoors.

Package damages screws missing. I have numerous blackhawk holsters and no problem with them. This one upon opening the bag it was shipped in I noticed the box was open and damaged. Upon inspecting the contents the screws were missing so i am unable to put it together.
