The Bulldog RRG17 Rapid Release holster delivers secure retention with instant access for Glock 17 pistols. This outside-the-waistband design combines polymer construction with paddle attachment for reliable everyday carry performance.
What Makes This Different
The rapid release mechanism sets this holster apart from standard retention systems by providing audible confirmation of proper holstering while maintaining quick draw capability. Unlike basic friction holsters, the RRG17 features active retention that secures the firearm against accidental dislodging during physical activity. The system releases with natural drawing motion, requiring no additional button presses or thumb breaks that can slow critical response times.
Key Features
- Rapid release retention system with audible click confirmation
- Injection-molded polymer construction for weather resistance
- Paddle attachment compatible with belts up to 1.75 inches wide
- Precision-molded fit specifically for Glock 17 pistols
- Right-hand draw configuration with adjustable cant
- Low-profile design reduces printing under clothing
- Reinforced trigger guard coverage for enhanced safety
Field testing demonstrates consistent performance across temperature ranges from -20°F to 120°F without retention failure. The polymer material resists moisture absorption and maintains structural integrity during extended duty use. Competition shooters report draw times averaging 0.8 seconds from concealment, while the retention system withstands Level I retention testing standards for law enforcement applications.
