6355 ALS® Tactical Holster with Quick-Release Leg Harness
The Safariland 6355 is an open-top tactical thigh holster built for tactical situations. The ALS® system (Automatic Locking System) locks the firearm in all directions once it is holstered and is operated with the thumb; after that, a straight draw upwards is all it takes. The thermoformed SafariLaminate™ construction is built for harsh environments, and the quick-release buckle on the leg strap makes it easy to put on and take off.
The Safariland® 6355 is a tactical drop-leg holster with a quick-release leg assembly that has one or two straps depending on configuration and is purpose-built for tactical situations. The intuitive ALS® (Automatic Locking System) offers excellent retention through an internal locking device that retains the firearm in all directions. The Hood Guard, an external shield, provides additional safety by protecting the release mechanism against takeaway attempts. Completely operable with the thumb, the holster is instinctive to use, and once the device is deactivated, a simple straight-up draw allows firearm retrieval.
Built for harsh environments, the 6355 ALS Tactical Holster is constructed of durable, thermoformed SafariLaminate™ and has a suede lining to help protect the firearm's finish. The drop-leg design stays clear of a vest and pack. On the configurations described by the manufacturer, silicone gripper strips help keep elastic leg straps in place; strap count and exact attachment depend on the selected configuration. Accessory mounting with optional ELS, QLS and MLS Quick Attachment Systems applies only to configurations with the correspondingly described leg shroud.
Patented.
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.
