No. They work well. Better grip angle than a Glock, for me. The trigger is....striker.

The Glock and M&P fanbois seem to dump on it to validate their choices. The 1911 fanbois dump on it, too, but they dump on everything.

My first handgun was an xd40 and I OC'd that in a serpa for about 2 years. I didn't like either but I didn't know much back then and I was pretty much stuck with the xd since it was the only one I found where someone was willing to sell to a 19 year old ftf.

I trained with what I had and became proficient.

Then I turned 21, got my ccw and switched to a g19 in a desantis. Much better fit.

Variety is the spice of life.  



Honestly, I don't shoot nearly enough these days.  Mostly I shoot my XDM when I go out, as that's the gun I generally carry.



If a 1911 would hold 13 rounds of .45ACP, I'd probably spend most of my time shooting that and use it for carry.  It's my favorite gun, but IMO it's too big and carries too few rounds for a practical CCW gun.  I know there are 9MM's that are more compact and carry more rounds, but my first pistol was 45ACP, and since I reload, I just kept buying 45's.  I don't feel the need to add more calibers to my reloading hobby...

The ALS holster is just as susceptible to lockup failure as the Serpa is. Serpa seems cheaper, but is minimalistic too.

No, as I said earlier in the thread, nearly every time I see an OC guy in my AO, it's XD/SERPA.  

Of course, I did miss the guy in my AO OCing on his Segway but OC is never about attention seeking....

 Actually, a lot of times in the military, you are handed shit gear.  If you don't believe that, talk to anyone who went through the MOLLE gear fiasco.  Happily, there's folks that do test this gear and see other folks break it like say SouthNarc in the very video I linked to.  However, if you feel better; just go on saying it's opinion about the SERPA and it's just fine and they never lock up with the gun in the holster.  Chant it a few times every day just to make sure.  

 It's amazing how wedded people get to inanimate objects.  I'd change out holsters in a second if the one I was using was found to be defective or if something better came out.  Speaking as someone who has been effectively a one handed shooter for a near year span, I'm big fan of weapons that are fine with one handed manipulations as well.  I'm not wedded to my Glock either; if I had the money, I'd be on a CZ Accu Shadow like white on rice.  However, I'm heavily invested in Glocks and training means more than collecting to me.

I don't understand the Serpa hate. I have two of them, and they are great holsters. The safety claims are bullshit; if someone is too stupid to safely use a Serpa, they shouldn't have a gun.

I do understand why some people don't like open carry. I wouldn't do it in the city, where it might alarm people and/or make you a target for some hoodrat who wants your piece, but then I would never choose to live in a city, and try to avoid them as much as possible. In rural areas, there is nothing wrong with open carry.

I am also not a fan of the XD, but I wouldn't bust on someone else's choice to carry one.

This and some units in the army use them for secondary carry on the IBA. Not my first choice though.  The only time I used to open carry was on the way to the range. Now that I know there are gun supporters that get worked up about it I carry my two colt SAA Yosemite Sam stile

Working at a gun store, I would say 80%+ of all open carry folks use the shitty nylon Uncle Miles or Bulldog one size fits all holster. Some choad was OC'ing a Beretta 92 with a 20 round mag in it, and he had to keep putting the holster back in position since he was using the clip attachment to his shorts.

Most retarded one was a fat fuck wearing a war belt, with six double mag pouches, a drop leg with 3x33 round mags, and a Serpa drop leg containing a Glock that had been raped by a wood burner. To top it off he had a 33 round mag in the gun and was banging it on everything.

No. But did you know that the Marine Corps actually tested the SERPA before they adopted it, and they didn't have any problems with that? People get too worked up over isolated incidents. ANY mechanical device can potentially fail. And if a person was rolling around in enough mud or sand for the SERPA to lock up, there is a good chance that the pistol wouldn't work, either. And since I don't plan to roll around in the mud with my SERPA, it's irrelevant to me. And if I'm out riding an ATV in the mud (and carrying), my pistol is in a shoulder holster, and under my coat.

At least if they ND with an XD, they'll only put a hole in themselves and/or the floor.

If they were using a Glock with a serpa, they have the potential to take out a 5m radius with an ND.

I'm not a fan of the XD's but that has more to do with the company selling them than with the guns themselves. I have both Glock and M&P and I like them both, am comfortable with both, and happy with both. My wife prefers the M&P because it (the grip) doesn't tear up her hands as much. I admit I find the M&P more comfortable to shoot as well, but the Glock doesn't bother me and I still find it comfortable, just not AS comfortable.

As for open carry, it doesn't bother me unless someone is being stupid about it. I don't open carry myself very often, but I've always preferred the thumb-drive retention systems. I don't know if they are any better about not getting locked up than the Serpa, but it's a much more natural draw for me. I'm just not a fan of the Serpa release system. I've been using the 5.11 thumb-drive holsters and so far I haven't had any issues with them.

I found the safety lock of the slide to be a plus - if you get into a scuffle or the gun drops - it won't come back further than a "press check" - keeping your round chambered instead of causing a possible jam.

Interesting. I carry an XD and I use a SERPA. I also OC when it suits me.

I've never had a problem with either the gun or the holster. I got the gun because I've shot one before and I liked it, and I got the holster because it was available at the store and I needed a retention holster.

Whatever. It's not bad equipment and I have no reason to spend more money on additional equipment. If the pegs me as an OC guy in his eyes, I'm guilty as charged.

Do you compete or train with this gear?  Demographic question and if it works for your needs, enjoy!

I shoot 3-gun and IPSC with the same rig. I don't train with it now as much as I have in the past (lack of funds and time), but I am proficient with the gear that I use.
