Elliott, thanks for the review! We are currently working on a drop attachment that is compatible with the ALQD and also has compatibility with a leg strap. To make those AR Mags less bulky and less expensive, you can take off the ALQD and just attach them to the Double Loop.
I chose Dara for my SHTF operations belt rig after closely studying their product features. The prices don't break the bank like other manufactures do. Thanks Dara Holsters. God Bless the USA.
@@koltaire5938 Folded Kydex is what the 6000 series was, and Safariland has moved away from that to injection molded polymer with the 7000 series which had some issues early on. Additionally the quality of the 7000 series holsters apparently isn't up to that of the 6000, take that with a grain of salt. So if you want a kydex holster with level 2 or 3 capabilities you have to look elsewhere to Dara, Comp Tac, BGS, Ghost, etc...people default to Safariland brcause they are a known quantity but if that known quantity isn't providing the same product that earned them their reputation in the first place I don't see any harm in branching out. If you run Glock, Smith, Beretta, Sig P226, or another classic then congratulations you shouldn't have a problem finding a 6000 series to work with as long as they are still out there. But I personally would like to be able to have a holster for say a P10F, PDP, or P320 that is made out of a durable material.
@@Osprey1994 Boltaron (similar to kydex) is definitely a quality material. Injection molded plastic doesn’t necessarily equate to quality, durability or strength, it depends on the materials and fillers used, the percentages, the machine operators and the tooling and how it’s handled. Both can make a quality, dependable holster. But Boltaron is a steady constant with extremely high tolerances if heated, shaped and cut correctly, which is why it’s used so often.
@@azzystyle94 I've always had good luck with dara myself. The only brand I may consider over them would be tier 1. But ive got about 8 or so holsters from dara ranging a few different model glocks and my p365 and theyve all been fine. I actually have one one order as we speak for my 19X
Run a few Dara holsters. I’m about to buy a Level 2 light bearing myself. Love that they’re offering a full kit with a Kore belt. Don’t think I’ll ever own another holster besides Dara. Great gear.
I have this kit and I use as my duty gear. I carry X5 Legion. I'm very satisfied with is set up. I have several holsters for my pistols. I wouldn't have anything else
Currently waiting for a modified safariland holster for my sig m18 that has a herrington arms compensator. I know the x5 is a bit longer than the m17 so I'm thinking of buying that and hoping it fits. Does it come with an open bottom for muzzle devices? I can't seem to find photos showing if it does or any info on that. I also have a GoGunsUsa gas pedal on it, think it will fit?
Do you know if there's anyway to make this a Level 3 retention? I have a CZP10F and I'm starting a training academy in a couple of weeks that requires an L3. Safariland makes one but nobody has one in stock
Level 3 should be friction, a button that needs to be defeated and a hood. I see some holsters that say level 2 but are in reality a level 3 as they have a button system, hood, and some friction. PS. All of this is explained on Safarilands website under their education/holster-retention section. Level 2 would be no hood/strap just a button.
@@Osprey1994some holsters require the pistol be pressed downward or in a rearward direction as one of their security levels, i dont think the hood counts for anything except as protection for the optic
I dont think any light bearing holsters will ever hold the pistols just fine without the light, its also not recommended you do so even if it slightly works.
@@CaffeineFreak13 Rapid Force Duty Holster by Alien Gear makes one that works great. I threw a bigger light (tlr1) and had to dremel the holster a bit but it still runs with or without the light.
@@CaffeineFreak13 no not at all. If snapped in snug. The only difference was it was just slightly harder to line up and drop into the holster after timed shot groups, but honestly I don't think most people would really notice.
I just ordered the Level 2 retention duty holster last night with a couple mag holders.... I have pretty high hopes for this company and their holsters because honestly, I don't want to give Safariland anymore of my business... They're website is a nightmare, and their customer service is terrible.... Once I saw Dara is based out of Wendell NC, I was all in, since they're local to me as well... I hope this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship with Dara Holsters....
Get alien gear rapid duty holster it’s better than that and it more durable go watched how milspec mojo try to destroy that holster that holster will last lol

@John Jacob we currently offer a leg strap adapter!
Run a few of your holsters absolutely love your holsters.
Why did you guys stop allowing his discount code to work
Is that detachment feature on all of the duty holsters level two and level three?
@@BrianThomas-y7d no it comes as an option. There are other attachments available.
Just got my level 2 duty holster for my CZ P01 today! Just love it! No one else makes it.

Holsters and Armor are worth the money imo. Safariland 6000 series us 100% worth the money.

US fat guys got love handle guard which makes a lvl 2 a 3
I've ran dara holsters for probably 7-8 years. I've never used another holster since. Great customer service and fantastic product.
You would absolutely recommend them? Was thinking about Black point, but holy f*ck their wait times are terrible
@@azzystyle94 I've always had good luck with dara myself. The only brand I may consider over them would be tier 1.

Tier 1 Concealed has a level 2 retention (like this one) with the Safariland QLS system for drop-leg.
So I use both spacers or just one on my holster
I have this kit and I use as my duty gear. I carry X5 Legion. I'm very satisfied with is set up. I have several holsters for my pistols. I wouldn't have anything else
Do these work for guns that has extended mag release?
Where did you get the magazine holders? Love this holster
You have to upgrade it in the options to receive the leg strap adapter.
Will dara holster fit on g code
I'm having to buy a new duty holster my G Code holster doesn't fit my Shadow systems MR 920 with a Trijicon RMR
Currently waiting for a modified safariland holster for my sig m18 that has a herrington arms compensator.
I know the x5 is a bit longer than the m17 so I'm thinking of buying that and hoping it fits. Does it come with an open bottom for muzzle devices? I can't seem to find photos showing if it does or any info on that.
I also have a GoGunsUsa gas pedal on it, think it will fit?
Does the holster have friction on the HK without having something on the rail?
Just wish they had a gcode option, all they offer is their mounting options
I have DARA AIWB holsters and mag holders. Just ordered one for my G45 and patiently awaiting it's arrival. DARA is top quality.
What belt are you using w that setup> ?
Kore Essentials Battle Belt, it’s great
Does anyone have a Dara level II holster for the Staccato XC?
I am trying to figure out if it will work with the STI Tactical 4.0
Have u tried the Safariland QLS?
That's the standard. Use it on all my holsters
Whose standard?
Do you know if there's anyway to make this a Level 3 retention? I have a CZP10F and I'm starting a training academy in a couple of weeks that requires an L3. Safariland makes one but nobody has one in stock
Might want to reach out to them and see what they can so

Muzzle discipline, loaded or not…
Very cool! Do you know if the glock holsters work with polymer 80 frames?
We offer Polymer80 holsters, they do not fit in Glock holsters. The Polymer80 frames are much taller.
@@DaraHolstersandGear Will a Glock 17 fit into p80 holster that is setup for a TLR-1?
You should check out US Duty Gear they have some pretty slick stuff over ther
I was going to order a duty holster. I was wondering if I get a holster cut for a tlr7, will it still retain the firearm with the light uninstalled?
I dont think any light bearing holsters will ever hold the pistols just fine without the light, its also not recommended you do so even if it slightly works.

Mine is a level 2 retention holster so it locked in just fine. 👍
Let’s see the comp holster review ❤️🔥
Good vid! Walther pdp and sig x five Legion level 2 retention. Great company

You are a literal life saver! Thank you 🙏🏾. Subbing!
For the price I might as well get a Safari land holster 🤔🤔
Bought one because Safariland doesn’t make a holster for g20 gen 5 yet. The dara mechanism is very unnatural. I Much prefer Safariland.

Thank you Bobby!
Great product man keep it up! Let’s go Brandon!🇺🇸 Great video
Cool
YOUR 10% CODE DOESNT WORK
