Safariland Model 6395RDS: built for the Smith & Wesson 2.0 9
Retention you don’t think about is the point of the Safariland Model 6395RDS with Level I retention. Holster the Smith & Wesson 2.0 9 and it locks; draw it the way you trained and it’s simply there.
Why officers trust it
- Low-Ride carry. Drops the grip below belt line — clears body armor, vest kits, and vehicle door frames.
- Uniform-matched finishes. Offered in STX Plain to match agency uniform standards.
- 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.
- Level I retention. One independent retention mechanism stand between the pistol and a gun grab — each defeated naturally by the wearer’s trained draw, and only by it.
- Light-bearing fit. Molded for the Smith & Wesson 2.0 9 with its weapon light mounted, so the pistol rides tight with the light in place.
Who carries it
Patrol officers, sheriff’s deputies, and campus and transit police carry this class of rig every shift; agencies standardize on it because armorers can service the hardware and every officer draws the same way.

Common questions
Will it fit my weapon light?
This is a light-bearing model, molded for the Smith & Wesson 2.0 9 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 is left hand-hand only as stocked. Ask the Network if you need the opposite-hand SKU — Safariland builds most models both ways.
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.
