Safariland Solis: 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 Solis does both.
Why officers trust it
- Light-bearing fit. Molded for the Glock 17 with the TLR7/7A mounted, so the pistol rides tight with the light in place.
- 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
Detectives, plainclothes assignments, and off-duty carriers run this class of holster where a duty rig would print or snag.

Common questions
Is it available left-handed?
This listing is right 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.
Is this a duty or concealment holster?
Concealment — check the ride and belt attachment in the specs to confirm it matches how you intend to wear it.
About Safariland
Since 1964, Safariland has grown from a California garage operation into the name most duty belts are built around, pioneering the retention systems that became the industry’s benchmark.
