BLACKHAWK
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about BLACKHAWK from 3G Electric.
What materials are used in BLACKHAWK holsters and pouches?
BLACKHAWK holsters and pouches are constructed from materials such as CORDURA® fabric, carbon fiber composites, and nylon. CORDURA® is used in general tactical pouches for abrasion resistance. Carbon fiber is employed in holster platforms and quick-disconnect systems for lightweight strength. Nylon is used in matte-finish holsters and medical pouches. These materials are selected for durability in field conditions.
Are BLACKHAWK holsters available for specific firearm models?
Yes, BLACKHAWK holsters are designed for specific firearm models. Examples include the Walther P99/S and W SW99, H&K USP Full Size 9/40, Beretta 92/96/M9/M9A1 (excluding Elite, Brigadier, 92A1, 96A1), and Beretta M9/92/96. Each holster is model-specific to ensure proper fit and retention. Check the manufacturer part number for compatibility.
What retention levels do BLACKHAWK holsters offer?
BLACKHAWK holsters are available with retention levels up to three. A 3-level retention system typically includes a passive friction fit, a thumb-activated release, and a secondary locking mechanism. This is common in duty holsters for law enforcement. Lower retention levels may be available for specific models. Refer to the product specifications for the exact retention level.
Can BLACKHAWK pouches be attached to standard duty belts?
Yes, BLACKHAWK pouches such as the Aerosol Pouch are designed for use with belts up to 2 1/4 inches wide. They feature belt loops or mounting systems compatible with standard duty belts. Other pouches may have different attachment methods, including MOLLE-compatible straps. Verify the belt width and attachment type in the product specifications.
What is the BLACKHAWK Quick Disconnect System used for?
The BLACKHAWK Quick Disconnect System is an accessory for holsters that allows rapid attachment and detachment of the holster from a platform or belt. It consists of a male adapter that mounts to the holster and a female receiver on the belt or thigh rig. This system is useful for transitioning between different carry configurations or for quick removal of the holster.
