6004 SLS Tactical Holster
The Safariland 6004 is a tactical thigh holster with a rotating SLS hood that needs no snap. It allows a smoother draw in a single motion and, according to the manufacturer, offers greater protection against attempted weapon takeaways. The suede lining with its molded sight track protects the firearm's sights and finish, and, according to the manufacturer, the rugged STX finish protects the firearm against scrapes, scratches and dents.
This tactical holster features the rotating hood of the SLS (Self Locking System). With no snap, the SLS allows for a smoother single-motion draw and greater protection against attempted weapon takeaways. The hood can only be released by being simultaneously pushed down and rotated forward and actually becomes more secure when upward force is applied. It is also far less likely to release accidentally than conventional thumb break snaps.
The molded sight track and soft SafariSuede™ protect the firearm's sights and finish. Depending on configuration, the Model 6004 has a leg shroud with one or two straps; individual versions are instead specified with UFA and paddle. Mounting holes for optional accessories apply only to versions with the correspondingly described leg shroud. The rugged STX finish protects the firearm against scrapes, scratches and dents.
Hood Guard standard: The Hood Guard is part of the holster; Sentry is optional.
Safariland began in 1964 in a garage in Sierra Madre, California: Neale Perkins built a holster at his father's request and named the company after the African safaris they had enjoyed together. The garage workshop grew into a brand that develops holsters, gear and protective equipment for duty and operational use. The company's guiding idea is "Together, We Save Lives"; Safariland names innovation, performance, excellence and legacy as its values.
- SLS™ rotating hood
The Self Locking System (SLS) uses a rotating hood with no snap. It allows a smoother draw in a single motion and, according to the manufacturer, greater protection against attempted weapon takeaways.
- Operating the hood
The hood can only be released by being pushed down and rotated forward at the same time. When upward force is applied, the retention becomes even more secure. According to the manufacturer, accidental release is far less likely than with conventional thumb break snaps.
- Hood Guard standard
A Hood Guard further protects against attempted takeaways. It is standard on the 6004; a Sentry is optionally available.
- Leg shroud with accessory mounting
The leg shroud has mounting holes for optional accessories; according to the manufacturer, a double leg strap is standard. Silicone strips on the leg straps provide non-slip traction. According to the manufacturer, the 6004 can be used with the Drop Flex Adapter and the QLS systems.
- Universal Flex Adapter (UFA)
In addition to the leg shroud, the manufacturer catalogue lists versions with the Universal Flex Adapter (UFA). It allows the holster to be worn below the hip without shifting weight further down the leg; its hole pattern makes it possible to connect to a paddle, ELS fork, QLS or 744BL belt clip.
- SafariLaminate™
The thermoformed SafariLaminate™ construction is highly durable.
- SafariSuede™ and sight track
The soft SafariSuede™ lining (suede) and the molded sight track protect the firearm's sights and finish.
- Rugged STX finish
According to the manufacturer, the rugged STX finish protects the firearm against scrapes, scratches and dents.

Tactical thigh holster (drop-leg) with leg shroud; depending on the version, with Universal Flex Adapter (UFA) and paddle.

Notes
- A Sentry (6001) or the Hood Guard/Sentry combination (6002) is optionally available and not part of the standard scope; according to the manufacturer, the Sentry raises the holster's security level.
- The manufacturer offers the 6004 for firearms with and without rail-mounted lights; the selected variant with firearm model and light module is decisive.
- According to the manufacturer, the Drop Flex Adapter can only be used with the single leg strap; according to the manufacturer, the Universal Flex Adapter (UFA) is intended for use with the single-strap leg shroud 6004-10.
- For the most harmonious overall look, we recommend choosing leather holsters and leather accessories from the same manufacturer in the same colour designation. Leather is a natural material; slight variations are possible even within one colour. Colour names such as brown, tan, cognac or natural are not standardised across manufacturers.
* Firearms, optics, magazines, ammunition and accessories shown are not included unless expressly stated. The selected article variant applies.
