Level II holsters and sholder rigs.

Has anyone tried a Level II holster shoulder rig? There seems to be 2 options currently. The Safariland ALS and the blackhawk sepera shoulder adapter. I was wanting a trigger Gard lock function instead of the thumb break style. Fobus makes a Roto but because of the bad reviews I'm already searing clear.

Ok so most CC holsters are tension driven inside the pants type. I was just looking at an alternatives to the venerable thumb strap. From what I understand the levels are mix and match but generally follow this format.

Level 1: Thumb strap
Level 2: Tensioner.
Level 3: Some form of locking or release armature.

I just want a release to replace the thumb strap that sometimes hangs up on the draw. These holsters don't seem to be that much bulkier then the leather models.

I have a serpa in a belt model. I would think it would work well for a shoulder rig, too.

It snaps over the front face of the trigger guard.
Just tug the firearm to release it.
No retention strap.
