Reviews & Ratings for BlackHawk CQC SERPA Shoulder Harness — 3 review — Page 1

The Blackhawk shoulder holster system is ideal for those who wish flexibility in their concealed carry. Normally you have two options if you change sidearms. Buy a cheap one-size-fits-all nylon rig that fits but not perfectly or buy a custom fit rig that fits perfectly but sets you back $100+ for each pistol. The Blackhawk system allows you to change sidearms by simple replacing one SERPA holster with another appropriate SERPA holster. The magazine carrier changes to fit also. Going from a double stack to a single stack is a simple change requiring two minutes time. Since the SERPA holster draw is identical for all models there is no re-learning required. In my opinion this shoulder system has two negatives. Because of its' design it is rather bulky and tends to print. Not a big problem when the weather requires a jacket or vests but somewhat difficult to deal with in warmer climates. The second negative is the tie-downs. In my opinion when carrying a heavier pistol tie-downs are absolutely necessary. The Blackhawk systems provides the tie-downs which adjust via Velcro but they are definitely too long for practical use. At their shortest position they still allow the pistol to flop and swing beyond most other systems I have tried. Overall the system works well, allows the owner flexibility and options not normally found on shoulder holster systems.
Pros: Flexibility
Cons: Bulky
