    Safariland + your $$ = good value for your $$.

    Is this a one of a kind or do they have a few. I am in the market for one, depending on the model #. Sounds like a good price to me.

    I wore Sarariland equipment 5 days a week for several years, it still looked and wore like new when I sold it. Excellent stuff!!

    Safariland has been making prime leather for a long time. You can't go wrong at 30 bucks in my opinion. Retail was probably twice that at one time.

    I am assuming this is a nylon holster, and if so, go for it.

    Safariland used to make some of the best leather products anywhere. Then they started making stuff out of plastic. They call it Safari-Laminate.

    Many of my co-workers bought the Safariland Top Gun holster when we first started carrying autos about 10 years ago. They began to look bad right away, mostly from contact with the seat belt buckle. And, unlike leather, scratches cannot be dyed and polished. You just live with it.

    Many of the thumb break straps cracked and broke. They all looked bad after only about 2 years of use. This is wrong. A premium leather holster should give a lifetime or two of good service.

    I wouldn't have a Safari-Laminate holster for free. If you like them, use them.

    Don Hume rules! Premium leather, good price, friendly factory support.
