Comments: I just wanted to say thank you for having such a great product. I have a story behind how much I trust your holster.

In 2008 I came across a subject that according to our dispatch was a possible wanted person; a call that comes across quite regularly in our city. It was a normal call I did not think too much about it, I just figured it would be another call I would arrive at and not be able to find anything.  My Sgt. and I along with an off duty Officer arrived in the area of where this subject was and we were able to make contact with him.

Unknown to me at the time the subject was wanted for attempted murder out of New York City. He had stabbed an individual multiple times in the back and fled to Utah, to find an old girlfriend and a gun. While we were speaking with this individual it was apparent that he was hiding something.

Through doing a background check on the subject we found the warrant for his arrest. In the process of taking him into custody he tried to flee from us. Fortunately for us he did not see the curb a few feet away from him and he ended up tripping on it, falling to the ground. I found myself with my Sgt. and another Officer fighting on the ground with this individual. This male was about 6 feet tall and weighed in at about 260 pounds and had very little body fat. Needless to say he knew how to handle himself. The next thing I realized is he was trying to get my gun from its holster. He physically pulled me down to the ground pulling my holster from the right side of my hip to the crotch area of my body. He did this not only once but twice as I was fighting with him. My gun did not move, it stayed secured in my holster until I drew it out myself to use it.

I know and truly believe to this day had it been any other holster he would have been able to if not gain full control of my firearm at least have been able to have pulled it from my holster, an either myself or my friends may not have made it home to our families that day. I had a leather keeper that was stretched one inch longer that day, and an undying gratitude for a great product.

I just wanted to say thank you.

I intend on getting another one of your holsters for my Glock 21. I am a huge supporter of your products and try and get everyone I know to get your holster.

It is safe and reliable.

Thanks for having such a great product.

Sincerely,

Kris Jeppsen.
