Once the weapon is holstered, it "locks" into place providing an extra measure of security from the standard open top holsters. The device is completely operable with the thumb, making it very instinctive to use. And finally, once the internal retention device is released, the weapon can be drawn straight out of the holster with o twisting or other motion required. The addition of the Hood Guard gives the holster added protection to the SLS.
The Model 6361 is worn on the belt and features a semi-hi-ride position and a slightly forward weapon cant. It rides close to the body aiding in concealment and comfort. Additionally it features suede lining to help protect the gun's sights and finish, and its SAFARI-LAMINATE structure with wraparound.
