Blackhawk Serpa

Anyone have one??? Especially for a J-frame...curious as to opinions on concealability, comfort etc.

I have 1 for a 1911. I like the paddle feature best, seems to hold the holster the closer.
Some trainers have complained the release can get jammed with a pebble. never tried it myself, but love the retention feature.

I bought the very same holster, for the very same gun.

Loved it so much I got their DUTY holster for it, too. And its awesomeness is even greater!

I have one for my USPc, and one for my XD; also used one for my issued M9 for a while (sold that one when I got issued a rifle instead). Outstanding design, very innovative, have had zero problems with it.

Personally anything that has the retention release over the trigger is not a good idea. I have seen one and heard of many more unintentional discharges coming out of the Serpas during the draw. The Georgia Public Safety Training Center has banned their use due to this.

Training issue? I've seen two. One coming out Safariland 070 (Gold Dot into thigh...bad) and one going into a carry lock (Gold Dot grazed ass). It's all about what's between the ears and a straight trigger finger, isn't it.
