LOL.....a couple. But even simply offering the Shield would have been smart.
Glock may be the most common pistol, but so are kydex Glock holsters, and, are there really a bunch of LE agencies needing to buy ton of Glock holsters all of the sudden? Did Safariland fall asleep at the wheel?
And while I think the reversible feature is excellent, most folks wont give a hoot about it, so really, this is just another good Kydex holster. Price point is excellent, but not uncommon.
Small guns are the fastest growing segment today, and the weapon light is quickly catching on with the new gun carrier. The folks buying the Glock43/Shield/PPS/XDs models with lights are an under-served market.
I only have one RCS holster for a G21. I bought it second hand from someone on this forum. Retention isn’t very good and if I place a firearm with loaded mag in it, hold it upside down, the gun falls out. I know...I need to send it in for adjustment. Will do.
So is this new launch a good move by RCS? Maybe. Is it a good holster? I’m sure it is. I simply think they could have targeted a more underserved market segment and possibly expanded their customer base.
You can only sell so many lifetime warranty holsters to your Glock runners...
Just my opinion...from consumer POV...
