Product information

US-281 Duty Holster — SRS Retention for Light + RDS Pistols (Level 2)

The US-281 is engineered for officers and armed professionals who run pistols equipped with both red-dot optics and rail-mounted tactical lights. Its SRS Safety Retention System™ provides secure, Level 2 locking with a natural, one-motion thumb release, while the LAP™ (Lower Alignment Protector) stabilizes the barrel and safeguards the light assembly under stress.

Retention & Control

  • SRS Safety Retention System™ — automatic internal lock engages on holstering and releases via an ergonomic thumb action for a natural draw.
  • Passive tension screw — allows fine adjustment of retention pressure to match user or agency preference.

Rail-Mounted Light Compatibility

Equipped with LAP™ (Lower Alignment Protector) to support barrel alignment and protect the attached light from impact or snagging. Compatible with:

  • Surefire X200 / X300 / X300U / XC-1 / XC-2 / XVL2
  • Streamlight TLR-1 / TLR-7 / TLR-9
  • Modlite PL350, Nightstick TCM-550XL / 550XLS
  • Olight PL-Pro / PL1 Valkyrie, Insight M3, Inforce Wild 1

Optic Compatibility

  • Aimpoint ACRO, Leupold DeltaPoint Pro
  • Sig Sauer Romeo 1 / Romeo 1 Pro
  • Vortex Venom / Viper, C-More, Docter, JP JPoint

Max optic height: ≈ 1.17″ · Front-sight clearance: up to 0.39″

Duty-Grade Construction

  • Shell: .093″ SDR (Synthetic Duty Rig) for rigidity and impact resistance.
  • Interior: Thermo-molded, suede-lined to protect slide, optic, and light housing.
  • Profile: lightweight and balanced for extended shift comfort.

Mounting & Fit

  • Compatible with standard 2.25″ (58 mm) duty belts and Safariland-pattern mounts.
  • Available in right- and left-hand configurations.

Excellent duty holster
rating

This holster is top notch. I've been carrying the Safari products for 25 years. U.S. Duty Gear has streamlined the ordering options for today's most popular pistols and configurations.

This is the holster we have been waiting for. Well made, simple and robust. I am looking forward to them being available in different retention options.

This was pretty much the only duty holster I could find for a full size Walther PDP with a Surefire X300U-B and red dot optic. The Nylon look was executed very cleanly and looks/feels great! The best part was this holster was 100% compatible with Safariland attachments which allowed me to utilize my current war belt with no extra purchase requirements for different parts. Quality combined with excellent customer service and very fast shipping made it even more worthwhile. 5 rating!

This Holster is awesome, I love everything about it. The Fit and finish is excellent, and I trust this holster, with my life. I have recommended this holster to a few of my coworkers already. The custom service I received was outstanding!!! They got the holster to me quick, and before the class I needed it for,. Only downfall was I ordered the wrong finish lol. US Duty Gear thank you for your amazing product!!!

Finding a quality, basketweave, duty holster for my Staccato P-Duo was impossible. U.S. Duty Gear greatly exceeded my expectations. I will, and have, recommended their gear to my entire department.
