The Professional is
a revolutionary new holster perfected by a police officer dedicated
to creating a balance between design and performance.
It provides the Big Three that have been sorely missing in duty
holsters:
- Safe retention.
- A fluid draw with the trigger finger ready for
shooting.
- No-look holstering that immediately returns the
gun to
100 percent safety.
They add up to fast and inexpensive training, appreciative officers,
and effective police work.
Forty-eight police officers were killed with their own handguns
between 1992 and 2001. This led to the emphasis on retention
by holster manufacturers, which created a false sense of security.
The natural drawing of the weapon and ability to immediately
re-secure it were overlooked. In times of stress, easy rather
than complicated motor skills are required. Too often police
performance was sabotaged in the face of a hostile adversary.
Can you imagine: no snaps, no thumb breaks, no hoods, no friction
grips, no twisting, no cranking or rocking the gun for drawing
and holstering?
Through much experimentation, police weapons retention expert
Mike Lowe eliminated these cumbersome devices and methodology.
He hit upon the idea of using the ejection port of the hand
gun for securing the gun inside the holster.
Through use of a finger tray and locking tab, the gun is naturally
drawn and easily returned to its previous safe state. A balance
between retention, drawing and holstering is obtained.
UPDATE
Dear Friends,
First we are very thankful to partner with American Cop Magazine; one that provides real issues, to real cops, in a format that cops love. We also want to express our heartfelt thanks and appreciation to everyone who have supported us and our products over the last three years. Your encouragement and testimonials have continued to give us hope and the satisfaction that can make a difference.
We are proud to announce that our son, Joe, will be rejoining the company after being injured in Iraq, while serving with the Marines. He will assist in overseeing operations and continue to be an inspiration.
After receiving a business degree the hard way, we have survived, and are stronger and more determined than ever. With the completion of the LEFT HAND HOLSTER, we will soon be able to effectively compete in the Security Holster market with a product line that the end-users have been deserving for many years. This product line will exceed anything currently on the market, in terms of Strength, Performance, and Functionality.
We dislike superficiality and cut throat nature of business today, and how it has infected the holster industry. This isn’t about money, or superficial marketing; it’s about Real life, Real lives, and Real World Solutions. In professions where trust, honesty, and integrity are everything, we see them abandoned as soon as things are put into a management perspective where the only thing that counts is the bottom line. At Tactical Design Labs, we believe your SAFETY is the bottom line. We don’t have just customers or distributors; we have friends, and our goals must be mutually aligned to ensure each others safety and success. Our goal is not to be the biggest,just the Best! Our commitment is to build holsters and equipment for those that want the best, and are the best at what they do.
Sincerely,
Mike & Lori Lowe
