    Uhh...

    Yeah. As if your seat belt doesn't cross right over the center of your chest where the holster sits.

    What!? RBCD? You mean that over-priced, under-performing snake oil ammo? :mad0079:

    Looks over-priced to me, and doesn't look like a terribly sound design. Then again, I've been wrong...

    Concept is great, most my friends are buying Black Hawk Serpa holsters and tying them down to their IBA's as a cross draw chest rig for use in vehicles, especially while in the turret. I plan on doing the same. I do agree with Mr. Sage, this particular rig looks overpriced and a friction rentention system is not what I would want in this kinda setup.

    There are some pics of the Serpa MOLLE platform and some pics of it mounted on my cheapo knock off plate carrier. I like it, it works well and all. Though, I really just don't like the placement on the chest. Personally I prefer a much more natural drawstroke like from a hip or thigh holster. For vehicle use when wearing a vest, personally I would think it would be significantly more convenient.

    Outstanding review... how much did that speed clip platform run you?

    I think the molle clip platform was like $15. It's rock solid too as it's made out of the same carbon fiber reinforced, polymer material as the more expensive Serpa's.

    I love my Serpa holster. I need to pick up the MOLLE attachment for it.
