A higher level of holster safety, simplified. The innovative Self Locking System (SLS) of the model 6280 features a patented rotating hood design without a snap that secures your weapon in the holster more effectively than a traditional thumb-break retention system can. 

Drawing your weapon is quick and efficient thanks to its mid-ride position, which also offers an added level of protection against takeaways. Simply push down on the hood and rotate forward as you grasp the weapon – a natural motion that takes no more time than if unsnapping the holster instead.

Re-holstering is faster and far easier than with a thumb-break holster: Just pull back on the hood and the SLS system locks itself – all done with one hand.

Equipped with a Sentry and Hood Guard, the model 6280 is a Level III Retention Holster with a top draw and straight drop cant, which allow for an easy, familiar draw – popular features with both major police departments and individual officers.

Safariland’s rigid Universal Belt Loop anchors the holster and stabilizes it on the duty belt with hardened aerospace fasteners. The holster and belt form a single unit, keeping the 6280 firmly in place as the weapon is drawn.

The holster features wraparound construction of thermal-molded Safari-Laminate materials with an adjustable tensioning device, a molded sight track, and soft Safari-Suede lining. You can count on this sturdy, well-designed holster to provide a snug fit and full protection for your weapon through years of rigorous daily use.
 

Safari-Laminate:

Proven durability. Lasting good looks. And a perfect fit.

Safariland’s original and most extensive collection of holsters and accessories, law enforcement professionals recognize Safari-Laminate as the hallmark of the modern Safariland line. Each piece is molded to the shape of the weapons or accessories it is made to carry, then heat-laminated with a durable, attractive Safari-Laminate finish.

Maintenance is almost too easy. Safari-Laminate will not absorb water or sweat, so it keeps its shape and secure fit no matter how many times it gets wet. It dries quickly and cleans with just mild soap and water. A little Armor-All protectant keeps your holster or gear pouches looking new on the outside. While a soft Safari-Suede liner absorbs excess oils or lubricants, and protects the finish of your guns and gear on the inside.

No matter which finish you choose, you’ll enjoy long-lasting security for your weapon and critical equipment, more comfort during long, slow shifts, and reliability during high-speed operations. You can depend on Safari-Laminate to fit your gear…as well as your style.
