The Safariland 578 GLS Pro-Fit (brand part number 578-83-551) is a right-hand, outside-the-waistband holster that brings the Grip Lock System together with SafariSeven construction in a flat dark earth finish, molded for pistols with a 4.30-inch to 6.02-inch barrel. GLS retention is an innovative design that automatically secures the weapon when holstered and releases it with a simple thumb press on the draw, so there is no separate lever to fumble under stress. It mounts to the belt with a paddle, and the SafariSeven material resists abrasion to the pistol’s finish while standing up to heat and cold better than standard nylon.
