More Blackhawk vs Safariland
We have a very long and growing list of Law Enforcement officers coming into our store with broken or worn out parts, and 95% of the time it means going back to our Safariland product book and flipping through the pages to find the right part. There are so many variations of guns out there and slight contour differences that mean you need a new holster. With many products this takes research and patience to get it right the first time. There have been changes to guns, holsters and even Streamlight flashlights but it’s almost impossible to keep up to date with it. In fact one of our distributors even acknowledged that they don’t have the man power to keep their website up to date with all of the correct product info.
This year we are breaking from the drop shipping policies and moving more toward stocking the parts and accessories that we know people are going to need. Some of the Blackhawk and Safariland holsters that we carry are the products that are the most demanded. For instance, most departments around here use the Glock 17 and the Glock 21 so we usually stock the duty and drop leg holsters that they need. Some of these holsters can cost over $140 so stocking the correct items and not getting stuck with a dead product they collects dust for years is something we try to avoid.
