    I do not care what your name is. They acted like idiots in that video they were sweeping each other and looked like they were in a panic.

    The situation could easily have been handled by moving to a safe area, removing it from the belt and working on it in a safe direction.

    You over look this because you happen to think that you and yours can do no wrong,
    TPI.com. Head on over.

    I don't know that it makes a difference to you, but the gun in the video was a training gun. It fires marking cartridges. I'm not sure where you saw the panic. I didn't get a panicked vibe. As far as I understand it, the video camera was started to document the problem with the holster which occurred in a training exercise. So I'm not sure why they would be in a panic anyway.

    Yes, it was a blue gun. Handle it any way you wish you know better than me. You will never repeat the mistakes in the real that you let slide in training.

    I am not going to go to some mope's site and dis him, he might get mad and come and shoote me.

    I have personally witnessed a couple issues with the Serpa. Combined with the other examples posted, its enough for me to lose interest in the design. Not enough for me to tell pther people they are wrong for doing it if they are aware of the same issues I am and come to their own conclusion.

    No, it wasn’t a Blue Gun, it was as Jackson said, a Glock17T non-lethal marking pistol. It’s used for training with mopes.

    Near the big river.
    I guess we are safe when Trapper has his perfect S&W double action, 44, with handpicked barrel, running hand selectaed ammo from years of research. He can kill all the zombies before we even realize they are threat.

    Yeah I caught that.

    Lets give this one a rest for a while folks. We are all smarter than this.

    Respect. That's the key here.

    Thread will be back up in the morning.
    If I remember or I do not shoot myself holstering the antique in the morning...…..:oldwise:

    Open for business.

    If you have info or an opinion to share then do so.....with "RESPECT"

    For my part in the poop poking contest last night I will say I should have known better because kids are gonna be kids.

    I hope you made more than just that bag...……..:):

    The holster argument (never stays a discussion especially later in the evening :40oz: ) has been ongoing since they started making retention systems.

    Possibly agree that a newbie should refrain from getting a Serpa.

    I actually have my Safari out on the desk. Looking at what I can do to make it more user friendly for me.

    Does it take longer to moderate from a typewriter? :)

    Yes. The hardwire translator is a bit outdated and it has to work through an old phone modem and then into a wireless signal sending device that sounds like a Morse key operator.

    :):

    For the record, I’ll take one of your built 1911s over just about anything if I had to take just one handgun to a bad neighborhood.

    This started life as a TRP and sucked right out of the box. 2 trips to SA and NADA so screw them. Allen fit up a new slide and bull barrel in 10mm. You need to run this one. I guarantee a smile. And would be very up to the job at hand.
