NO MORE CONFUSION: We responded to y'alls comments here:

You forgot the new level R holster from Safariland. It consists of a newly mixed Rubik’s cube that you have to solve each time you want to draw. I heard it’s been under consideration in CA, NY, and MA.

Level 8: You tell the bad guy to wait and drives 5 miles back to your home, open the safe get the gun and get back then tell the bad guy to resume.

Imagine not having one in the chamber on a lvl4 🫣

[@APhan26]

They should develop a holster that use “up up down down left right left right” pattern which automatically gives you 30 lives if you successfully draw your pistol.

This is absolutely the best video explaining and demonstrating the different systems. Your camera and lighting clearly showed everything I needed but couldn’t find in other videos. Great work!

[@dragonclaw88]

my holster has level 9..you have to push up down up down left right then a then b then press start...its much faster than my rubiks cube holster...that one took awhile...

[@DisLoyalSoul]

Gotta use the Konami code with your thumb to draw using a level 4 holster

[@BababooeyYcho66T]

I could only imagine the use of a Level IV holster for those in corrections/detention. Anyone that handles a prisoner or inmate.

Thanks for breaking this down. Safariland is awesome but their website sucks.

[@melissasdad]

What size belt loop does the holster come with, I’m looking at a 7360RDS but I noticed that y’all have other size belt loop adapters 2” and 2.5” I’d like to get the CUBL.

Well done. Concise, no drama. Thank you.

[@AdventureOps1]

FYI Safariland is the only company that breaks it down this way... Level 1 to everyone else is just passive retention IE: IWB holster with a tension screw to squeeze the firearm. Then level 2 is activating only 1 button to draw firearm IE: ALS... Level 3 would be SLS and ALS.

For us newbies learning, thanks a great explanation!
