I just bought a level-3 holster. I now have every level from level-3 down covered. If you were to **open** carry what level holster would you use?
For reference the levels are as follow:
level 1: Friction retention only (this is most holsters)
level 2: Friction retention, plus one locking mechnism (A button to release)
level 3: Friction retention, plus two locking mechanisms (usually a guard for the hammer plus a button to release the gun)
@freemo Not in the UK, but I see cops with ones which have a button-down flap over it in Europe. Is that not a type you can have?
@SteelFolk The purpose is to protect the hammer/gun from catching on something. but there are two types, one of which isnt considered a lock/retention.
