Safariland Model 7378RDS: built for the Glock 17
When a shift goes sideways, the holster is the one piece of gear that has to work twice — hold the Glock 17 through a struggle, then give it up instantly to a trained draw. The Safariland Model 7378RDS does both.
Why officers trust it
- ALS (Automatic Locking System). The pistol locks the moment it’s holstered, and a straight-back thumb release frees it in one natural drawing motion — nothing to pinch, rock, or think about.
- Light-bearing fit. Molded for the Glock 17 with its weapon light mounted, so the pistol rides tight with the light in place.
- SafariSeven construction. Safariland’s duty laminate shrugs off impact, rain, and vehicle-frame abuse that ends leather rigs.
Who carries it
Detectives, plainclothes assignments, and off-duty carriers run this class of holster where a duty rig would print or snag.

Common questions
Will it fit my weapon light?
This is a light-bearing model, molded for the Glock 17 with its weapon light in place. Run the exact pistol/light pairing before ordering — a bare pistol in a light-bearing shell will sit loose.
Is it available left-handed?
This listing covers left hand and right hand configurations — pick your hand in the options above before adding to cart.
Does it need a break-in period?
No. The shell is molded to the firearm, so retention is set by the locking hardware rather than friction — fit is correct out of the box.
