We have been drooling over samples for months now, but Safariland just released some definitive info on the new 6378USN ALS Low Signature Holster. As a quick aside, the “USN” designation doesn’t denote US Navy. Instead it stands for “US” = Berry Compliant and “N” = Non-standard. The holster features an infrared signature reducing Cordura nylon finish. The Cordura also protects the holster and helps to deaden any noise created by objects striking the holster.
The 6378 model is the concealment version of their Automatic Locking System (ALS) line and features a slight forward cant. Although often encountered in a paddle configuration, the 6378 incorporates the 3 hole pattern mounting pattern on the rear and is compatible with Safariland’s Quick Locking System (QLS) making the 6378USN a versatile, low profile holster solution.

This new finish is the heat. In addition to the ALS 6354 OPTIC QLS FORK for MRD equipped Glocks already offered by Grey Group, we know that variants of other Safariland holsters featuring this finish have already been purchased by one Army unit and are being looked at by other DoD organizations as well. Additionally, FirstSpear has developed some excellent add-ons for these new low signature holsters that we hope to be able to tell you more about soon.
The 6378USN ALS Low Signature Holster will be available from any authorized Safariland dealer.
