    Safariliand ALS holster and retention

    Looking into purchasing a Safariland 6360 ALS holster for the Glock 17 with an X300, but curious if this holster will also retain a Glock 19 with an X300.

    Also, same question for a 6360 without a light.

    Thanks

    I don't know about this holster, but I've been using the ALS 6320 for my Glock 22/X300 on Duty and for training I use a Glock 19/X300 with and without a threaded barrel with no retention issues.

    The ALS only holster is the best retention holster on the market. It securely holds the gun and rapidly allows you to draw and reholster the gun. I've used it for over a year now and have yet to have a problem.

    In my department we have to qualify with our off duty/backup gun and I found my Glock 27 fit and was retained in my ALS holster for Glock 22 with TLR1. It wiggled a bit but wouldn't come out unless you released the system.

    yes and yes. The ALS locks at the ejection port so the length of barrel/slide and light attachment does not matter.

    Thanks for all the replies, I assumed it wouldn't matter, but it's good to have a firm answer.

    FWIW Safariland no longer markets the ALS only holsters as Level 2 so that could be something to keep in mind regarding department policy.

    I tried to fight ours arguing that the issued 6280 was considered approved but it was a no go. I use the 6360 without issue.

    The G19 will work as well though I would recommend getting a model specific holster.
