Safariland Model 6360RDS: built for the Glock 17 MOS
The Safariland Model 6360RDS exists for one job: keep a Glock 17 MOS exactly where it belongs until the moment its owner needs it with Level III retention. That’s the balance Safariland has been refining since 1964.
Why officers trust it
- Light-bearing fit. Molded for the Glock 17 MOS with its weapon light mounted, so the pistol rides tight with the light in place.
- Optic-ready cut. Clears a slide-mounted red dot without giving up the locking hardware.
- Mid-Ride carry. Puts the grip right at the natural sweep of the hand — the patrol standard.
- Uniform-matched finishes. Offered in Cordura, STX Basket Weave, STX Hi Gloss, STX Plain and more 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.
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
Is this an approved duty holster?
It’s a Level III retention design of the type worn by patrol officers nationwide; approval always rests with your agency’s uniform and equipment policy.
Is this a duty or concealment holster?
Duty — check the ride and belt attachment in the specs to confirm it matches how you intend to wear it.
What does the retention level mean?
Safariland grades duty holsters by the number of independent locking mechanisms between the pistol and anyone who isn’t the officer wearing it. This model is Level III — three independent retention mechanisms, each one released naturally during a trained draw.
