I had two rapid force holsters before you got one. I love them. People told me I was a weirdo for using something other than the “way we’ve always done it” safariland. Then you got one and put those videos out and the same people came back and started asking me about how I liked it and if they should get one all because they saw you using it. Basically, I’m a hipster.

8:35, that’s a game changer in the world of look at the holster/don’t look at the holster. Thank you Mojo. Keep it coming.

I purchased this holster based on an earlier video you made about it. I just recently received mine as there was a 21 day wait but it finally arrived a little over a week ago. I have big hands so I had to swap to the smallest levers but once I got everything form fitted to me I’ve began to use it. So far (after getting use to the release method) I do really enjoy the holster and feel that it is very rigid and durable and it definitely has the easiest to use release to get use to. I’m still new to the holster but am putting in the time to become efficient with it. I believe in my humble opinion this holster is the standard for level 3 holsters. Thanks for the recommendation

Rapid force has a HUGE plus with how easy it is to order even though it’s limited fitment. You basically have to hire a translator just to order through safari land because it’s so confusing.

Considering that I am a left handed shooter carrying a gun on duty that few, if any, agencies carry I felt very fortunate...the only time they have been faster than that was when I needed a holster *RIGHT NOW* for a speed-ball deployment and they sent me a 6004 rig for a my issue Beretta in less than seven days...

Thanks again Mojo for this vid.🤙

Definitely want to see the Rapid Force and the T Series holsters continue developing. Having level 2 and 3 holster options for those that don't need Safariland quality would be great.

Thank you guys for letting me know your buddy got his G19 to fit with a large scale compensator by removing some plastic from the muzzle end of the holster, because I got the same set up and I was really worried this wouldn't work for me and I really wanted to get one. Keep on rock'n

Thank you for showcasing this equipment and providing honest feedback based on all of your experience !

I ran a safariland 6360 and the 6360 rds for years. I added a Nub from Oregon Trail Defense on the ALS lock. The optic dust cover on mine kept coming off getting in and out of a vehicle, up and down from a desk chair etc. I haven't started running this holster on duty yet but so far I am so much faster on my draw. In the first 2 range sessions using it, I was already finding it more intuitive to draw than the 6360. I was a die hard Safariland guy forever, but I'm quickly becoming a believer in this holster system.

Thank you guys for your honest thoughts. A lot of people will write companies off without doing their research.

I've had my AG Duty Holster for two and a half years now, things a tank. I actually got laughed at for switching from safariland to AG. Love both products, love both companies.

They now have the XL hood option for closed emitters. The back (top when holstered) of the hood comes down just in front of my rear sight on the Sig. It fits either open or closed emitters even better now.

Good hear the positive feedback. I bought one in 2020 and like it a lot but don't get to shoot much unfortunately.

I have mine been using it for 6 months now and I love it it’s all scratched and messed up but man is it holding together really well

FINALLY!!! am honest down and dirty review. My duty gun is a glock 21 with tlr-1 light. we are issued a safariland holster, which i am not a fan of. I dont carry that off duty. My off duty carry is a G45 with holosun scs and tlr-7. Trying to find a decent range holster that will fit my g-45, g-19 and g-17 without having to purchase all 3, just came down to this product. Im sure it will be a learning curve at the range. I do appreciate you guys taking the time to do an indepth review. Thanks again! Stay safe my friends

Love my rapid force holster. Have beaten the thing and used and abused it and it’s held up great. Absolutely love it.

Bought one for my p320 Wilson combat. Can’t wait to try it out this Tuesday when it arrives.

If you widen the hole at the bottom of a G17 holster you can fit a 34. It does poke out a bit but it does work.

biggest gripes with the holster is the grab guard, the overall bulk i think could be slimmad and rounded more and the trigger gap on light models, however i run it anyways and I cant wait till they beat the gap problem. after that i believe it will start taking over Safariland as they slowly perfect the design, it is an absolutelt great duty holster and its cut a half second sometimes more off my draw tö first shot while still maintaining strong retention. love it.

So far i love mine, one thing i noticed theu did which was awesome right before i bought mine is that theu did away with the option of the xl hood. Rather than giving an option you just get the xl hood which is awesome and makes sense from production perspective. Less options more versatility. But a fantastic holster so far.

05:42... I solved that problem on my safariland by molding and screwing a small piece of kydex in that spot, So that the entire trigger guard is covered. It will even hold a gun without a light snugly now. Completely solid and stable, I have tried without success to induce a ND with this holster for nearly 2 years now.

I picked one up to mess around with it. I tossed it on a true north Modular Holster Adaptor so its working just like QLS system.

Hmmm. I'm very tempted to get one of these. I need a serious holster and I'm debating between this, a safariland, and a Trex arms. The problem is I don't know what half the friggin attachments are that they ask you about at checkout when you go to the respective companies websites(especially safariland). I also am planning on getting my first serious gun belt and for that I'm most likely going to get the new Trex arms belt because again I don't know very much about gear but I want to train more seriously.

Thank you for the wonderful review. I'm in the market for a "duty holster". Definitely will be checking out Alien Gear!

I think the biggest pro to these holsters is the shorter wait time/in stock time compared to popular safari land holsters.

Straight to straight comparison between Safariland level 3 retention Duty holster vs Rapid Force Duty Holster they’re literally the same price. I spec’ed them out for a G17 with RDS and TLR1HL and it was the same cost. However, No cordura option for the Rapid Force but there is for Safariland except it cost $66 more with them. No biggie you can do it yourself after on either option. The big difference is the only other light from experience that would work with the Glock 17 or 19 running a TLR1HL mold would be the Olight Pro Valkyrie on this setup with Safariland. With Rapid Force their mold is universal with a lot of various lights. Both holsters work but both have pros and cons. If you want a holster that is more compatible with more light options I’d say Rapid Force is best. If you’re running a Streamlight now for whatever reason and then later upgrade to an x300 you can do it, it’s compatible with multiple WML’s. If you try that with Safariland it won’t work, you’ll need a new holster so another $200+. If you want a Long track record for a holster that will get the job done knowing you will not run into problems because it’s more familiar or because you fear you may be disappointed with a new company thats still trying to perfect their holsters, then just run the Safariland.

Well, not so fast there, Keymod-sabi. 6390-RDS fits both my TRL1HL and the X300 as they're a similar profile light. That being said, I think there is room for another company to make improvements over Safariland.

I wish id seen this like a month ago, i just bought a new safariland for my sig and had a hard time just finding a damn holster model # that met my needs. I can build one of these out for like 30-50$ cheaper than the safariland

Wish I could share pictures… I have my AG rapid force on a QLS fork and the true north mount. I was able to get all 3 bolts mounted on the AG through the QLS fork but had to do some mods which included washers. It’s solid. Where I ran into issues the the true north mount. It’s straight unlike the AG and SL mounts which angle the top of the holster out. To get the can’t and enough spacing to run the release buttons I ended up with only 2 bolts mounting the QLS receiver to the true north mount. If you want to see pictures message me..

Only in airsoft/milsim guy but I absolutely love this video definitely going to check out that holster I mean if you could use it in duty use and kick the shit out of it for a year and it still works it’s probably gonna work fine my hobby Edit: spelling

Best honest review 👌

Great information

that was me with my sig P320 Vtac and finding a level 2 or 3 retention holster what safariland said woukd fit led me and a shop employee prying it off my firearm for an hour so I needed it quick so I opted for a T series in level 3 retention I just work security but I also had to buy some stuff for it to work right for me/ Safariland has had the thrown for to long happy ro see people trying to overthrow a complacent king

I would like to see a DT session with all these holsters that seem to auto-open the hood with the same button as the retention release. I am personally curious, cause duty belt grabs happen all too often when you get into a scrap. I think that is why many agencies will not sign off on their officers carrying this. It’s not just about how fast you can get out of the holster, its about how well that holster keeps your weapon secured when the fight comes to you.

Жыл бұрын

Completely agree brother! So this thing may seem like an auto open and I also still somewhat think it is but in the testing we’ve done so far it’s not like an automatic snap similar to the G code or the Blackhawk series of holster. It’s inertia driven so the faster I drive my thumb down the faster the bell releases and to that extent very similar to the Safariland. The faster I swept the self locking system on the safariland the faster the holster came out. Weapon retention is a huge thing and again like I was talking about in the video dudes were straight up just laying on the holsters or putting stress on the Safarilands end it was causing catastrophic failure to the point where you couldn’t get the gun out or now there was a big crack down the center. Right now my top two options are definitely the rapid force and the Safariland because of the safety aspect along with the speed of being able to get the gun out quickly. The testing we’ve conducted so far during defensive tactics training obviously was done in a controlled environment with Safarilands and with rapid forces and let’s be real here if you get somebody that knows what they’re doing or has touched one of these in their life they will be able to get the gun out during the struggle. I think at that point if we start digging down this rabbit hole we’re gonna have to start talking about officer awareness and preventative measures.

@@milspec_mojo I'm just a civilian but from watching body cam footage I think every single patrol cop should be required to study jiujitsu. I have seen so many officer involved fights online and most of those go to the ground where grappling skills are absolutely necessary. We just had a very prominent case of this happening in a city near me called Grand Rapids Michigan and unfortunately the officer had to go to his gun and shot the individual he was fighting named Patrick Lyoya who was drunk and belligerent and who reached for the officers taser. The case has made national news and unfortunately his agency hasn't stood by him and has instead charged him with 2nd degree murder.

Still giving it a shot. Have it for my P320 and my Glock holster should be in soon. I like the function of it for the P320 so far, pretty intuitive, have to mildly get used to it compared to the Safariland that I’ve been running forever. Not a fan of being able to get my finger on the trigger while in the holster though. We’ll see how the Glock fares because that’s my duty and the P320 is just something I run when teaching from time to time. Going to see if my tourniquet bracket (got that idea from you, sir!) or possibly the RDS version will be able to fit on there. I have the adapter to run the QLS fork so we’ll see. Definitely looks promising!

I finally lost my months long battle with the aesthetics of this holster, and bought one shortly after watching this video. Aside from the royal pain it was to fit their QDS onto my Wilder Tactical Multi Holster Platform the holster seems like it’s very good quality. I may never get the chance to actually use it though because it apparently may not be as compatible with the Modlight PL-350 as they claim. Everything goes in and comes out just fine, however, Approximately 1/4 of an inch of the bezel of my light sticks out the end of the holster and is definitely no Bueno for duty use. Received an automated email back from alien gear when I inquired if that is the proper fitment or not stating it will be 7 to 10 business days before they get back to me guess we’ll see.

Safariland fan and user for a long time. But recently purchased a x300 light for my 226, only to find out sig doesn’t make any holsters that fit that combo. Thought I was safe being probably the biggest gun/light combo you could get. No dice. Aggravating .

I have a glock19 and I’m looking for ur advice for a light because I bought a rapid force and you seem to have a good idea of the best light to use. I’m also going to be buying a backup and want a similar setup!

I can see the benefits of the improved draw from the holster, but in your experience how is the weapon retention security? Part of the push forward and rock back of safariland makes it harder for a suspect to take a weapon from the holster.

Quick question (might have missed it if it was mentioned): Is it QLS compatible? Would make it easier too swap between belt setups, comp/duty/training if you also need too run guns that is not rapidforce compatible. Or have fixed dropdown platforms like thetruenorth/DAA/etc.

I hope they add the PDP in the future!
