Blackhawk Tactical Gear the Choice for True Professionals

Blackhawk Tactical Gear is considered to be one of the finest military and duty gear money can buy. Blackhawk holsters are not pretty or appealing to the eye, instead they are performance driven and ready for battle. The products made by Blackhawk are tested thoroughly and driven to maximize punishment. Each item exudes how much abuse a Blackhawk product can actually take. With Blackhawks no questions asked warranty you can guarantee that this holster will withstand any punishment you can give it.

Take for example the Blackhawk CQC Serpa holsters. The injection molded Carbon Fiber Composite holsters provides minimum weight and bulk but provides an excellent retention system. This unique retention system locks in the weapon where it allows only the wearer of the holster to easily draw the weapon. The patented SERPA lock engages the trigger guard and locks it in until you are ready to draw the weapon. When ready to draw the weapon the index finger is all you need to disengage the lock and easily draw the weapon from its holstered state. The distinct advantage over thumb break is the ability to draw and holster the weapon accurately each and every time. This is not the case with thumb breaks which require greater accuracy due to the unpredictable locking mechanism. The CQC Serpa system comes with adjustable tension and a patented retention system which eliminates the need for a thumb break.

Blackhawk also makes the same style holster in a lower retention level called the Carbon Fiber Composite Holster which gives the same low profile look and feel with the Serpa locking technology. Both the CQC Serpa and the Carbon Fiber Composite holsters comes standard with the Multi Fit Loop Belt system which accommodates a variety of belt widths. Also included as standard accessories are the easy-on paddle which attaches securely to the inside lip of the pants. Only Blackhawk CQC holsters come standard with belt and paddle options.

CQC Carbon Fiber is not just a simple molded plastic, instead Blackhawk development has created a polymer composite that is lightweight, form fitting, and nearly indestructible. These same materials can be found in US Air Force Aircrafts and other aerospace components. Also these materials are found in race car bodies, and cutting edge medical instruments. These low profile holsters offer a sleek look that offer the apex of concealment. Without a doubt the Blackhawk CQC holster will provide you the ultimate concealment and more importantly an excellent retention for your safety.
