571 GLS™ SLIM Pro-Fit™ Concealment Holster w/ Micro Paddle
The Safariland 571 GLS™ Slim Pro-Fit™ is a slim concealment holster with a micro-paddle for single-stack sub-compact pistols. The Grip Lock System (GLS™) secures the pistol automatically when holstered and releases it when the middle finger takes a normal shooting grip during the draw. The micro-paddle rides close to the body, and the retention tension can be fine-tuned at one point. The SafariSeven™ body protects the pistol's finish.
The Safariland 571 GLS™ Slim Pro-Fit is designed for compact, slim pistols. GLS™ retains the firearm automatically and releases with the middle finger during a normal grip. Its SafariSeven™ body uses a non-abrasive nylon blend. The included micro-paddle supports close carry; retention tension is adjustable.
Safariland began in 1964 in a garage in Sierra Madre, California: Neale Perkins built a holster at his father's request and named the company after the African safaris they had enjoyed together. The garage workshop grew into a brand that develops holsters, gear and protective equipment for duty and operational use. The company's guiding idea is "Together, We Save Lives"; Safariland names innovation, performance, excellence and legacy as its values.
- GLS™ retention
The Grip Lock System (GLS™) secures the pistol automatically once it is holstered. The middle finger releases the retention during the draw with a normal shooting grip; this makes the release more intuitive and safer.
- Straight-up draw
Once the GLS™ lock is deactivated by the middle finger, the pistol is drawn straight up.
- Slim and made for concealment
The Slim Pro-Fit holster is intended for single-stack sub-compact pistols. The low-cut, compact design makes concealment easy while allowing a quick draw.
- Micro paddle
The injection-molded micro paddle (571BL) rides close to the body and is included. It has a small footprint on the body and is easy to put on and take off. It fits belts from 1.5" (38 mm) to 1.75" (45 mm) wide.
- Adjustable tension
One point of adjustment lets you fine-tune the tension on the pistol.
- SafariSeven™: gentle and temperature-tolerant
The body is made of SafariSeven™, a lightweight nylon blend that does not abrade the pistol's finish and is easy to maintain. The material offers very high heat tolerance; the manufacturer's page lists the range from -50 °F to 300 °F (about -46 °C to 149 °C).
- Room for larger night sights
The holster is designed to accept larger aftermarket night sights.
- 3-hole mounting pattern
The holster has the same 3-hole pattern as other Safariland holsters. This allows all belt mount options found in the Safariland catalogue; these are not part of the delivery.
- Carry method
Concealment holster worn outside the waistband (OWB) with micro paddle (belt width 1.5" to 1.75", 38 to 45 mm).
