7004 7TS™ SLS Tactical Holster
The Safariland 7004 is a tactical thigh holster with a rotating SLS™ hood that the manufacturer describes as well suited for tactical situations. As there is no snap, the SLS™ hood allows, according to the manufacturer, a smoother single-motion draw and greater protection against attempted weapon takeaways. The SafariSeven™ nylon is highly durable and practically impervious to the elements; the Hood Guard is included.
This 7004 tactical holster features the Self Locking System (SLS) rotating hood, well suited for tactical situations. With no snap, the SLS™ allows for a smoother single-motion draw and greater protection against attempted weapon takeaways. The Hood Guard is included. It features a double leg strap and leg shroud. This model is constructed of the innovative SafariSeven™ material, a distinctive nylon blend from DuPont™. SafariSeven™ is highly durable and practically impervious to the elements.
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™ retention
The rotating SLS™ hood (Self Locking System, Rotating Hood) works without a snap. According to the manufacturer, this allows a smoother single-motion draw and greater protection against attempted weapon takeaways. A Sentry can optionally be added.
- Hood Guard included
The Hood Guard is included with this model; at Safariland it is part of the accessories of the SLS system.
- SafariSeven™ nylon
SafariSeven™ is a proprietary nylon blend that, according to the manufacturer, is completely non-abrasive to the finish of a firearm. According to the manufacturer, the material is highly durable and practically impervious to the elements.
- Air space inside the holster
Raised stand-off surfaces inside the holster create air space around the firearm so that dirt and moisture can quickly clear any contact with the firearm.
- Structurally sound down to −50 °F
According to the manufacturer, the holster stays structurally sound even at very low temperatures, down to −50 °F (approx. −46 °C).
- Structurally sound up to 300 °F
According to the manufacturer, the holster stays structurally sound even at very high temperatures, up to 300 °F (approx. 149 °C).
- Keeps its shape under water
According to the manufacturer, the holster can be submerged in water indefinitely and still maintain its shape and function.
- Adjustable tension
A tension adjustment screw inside the holster (on the interior spine) allows the firearm to be retained more firmly when needed; the screw should only be adjusted if more resistance is needed.
- Leg shroud with two leg straps
The standard double-strap leg shroud has mounting holes for optional accessories.
- Carry method
Tactical thigh holster: the belt is slid through the upper belt-loop portion of the holster, and the leg shroud is secured to the thigh with two leg straps.
Material and craftsmanship
SafariSeven™, a proprietary nylon blend that, according to the manufacturer, does not abrade the firearm's finish; matte finish designed to decrease reflection. According to the manufacturer, the SLS™ mechanism is made of stainless steel and chemically resistant plastic.

Notes
- A Sentry (model 6001) is available as an option and is not part of the standard scope; according to the manufacturer it raises the holster to a higher level of security.
- According to the manufacturer, the holster can be used with QLS systems and with the Drop Flex Adapter; the Drop Flex Adapter can only be used with the single leg strap. Neither is part of the delivery.
- Safariland holsters are designed to carry specific firearms; before use, make sure the selected holster is designed for the firearm model.
- The manufacturer requires practice with an unloaded firearm before duty use; a new holster fits more tightly than after a break-in period.
- Do not store the holster near heat sources: heat can deform the polymer and in some cases cause the firearm to be locked in place (manufacturer warning).
- According to the manufacturer, the SLS™ hood must never be left in the forward-rotated position, as the holster's retention is then severely diminished.
- Care according to the manufacturer: SafariSeven™ can be wiped with a damp cloth; soap and water together with a scouring pad help with cleaning.
