Model 6360 ALS/SLS Mid-Ride, Level III Retention Duty Holster for Sig Sauer P228

The Safariland Model 6360 ALS/SLS Mid-Ride, Level III Retention Duty Holster for Sig Sauer P228 is a professional-grade carrying solution purpose-built for law enforcement, federal agents, and tactical operators who demand absolute firearm security without compromising accessibility. This mid-ride holster addresses a critical operational need: retaining your sidearm against environmental hazards, physical contact, and attempted disarms while maintaining draw speed under high-stress scenarios. The Model 6360 represents decades of Safariland's duty holster engineering, trusted by agencies nationwide for its proven retention mechanics and real-world reliability in the field.

The Level III retention system employs both the ALS (Automatic Locking System) and SLS (Self Locking System) mechanisms to secure the P228 from multiple angles of attack. The ALS trigger guard lock activates automatically upon holstering, mechanically binding the weapon without requiring manual engagement—eliminating user error and ensuring consistent security across duty rotations. The SLS thumb break adds a secondary retention layer, requiring deliberate override for removal, which statistically reduces unintended holster departures. Constructed from SafariSeven polymer, the holster delivers the durability of duty-grade construction while remaining lightweight at 0.82 lbs, and the mid-ride cant positions the P228 for both duty belt and shoulder rig compatibility with standard 1.5" belt loops.

This holster is purpose-designed for sworn law enforcement carrying the P228 as a primary duty pistol, particularly in agencies where Level III retention is mandate-required during transport, crowd control, or crowd management operations. Federal task force operators and military law enforcement benefit from the mid-ride positioning, which balances concealment under cover garments with rapid deployment from standing or seated positions. The holster's design accommodates standard double-action/single-action operation of the P228 and integrates seamlessly into existing duty belts and tactical platforms. Proper holster fit and retention function depend on secure mounting to a quality duty belt rated for Level III loads; Safariland ALS/SLS holsters are compatible with most universal tactical and uniform belts.
