re: Handgun Courses this weekend with Advantage Group UPDATE yall missed out smh

The Serpa thing all comes down to a single issue. The holster was designed for you to use the pad of your finger (with the finger straight) to push the button so that when the pistol comes up out of the holster the finger slides up straight and ends up along the side of the pistol in the correct position.

The problems started when people used the tip of their finger to push the button. The way we all push buttons on a daily basis. Well that means the finger is curved and when the pistol is drawn the curved finger slides right inside the trigger guard. And you know what happens next... Boom.

Basically, the holster designers want the user to do something that isn't natural and that just never works out. For this reason, many trainers have banned the use of the holster. If you have one around, try it the two ways I described and you will see exactly what I mean. I didn't really understand until a buddy showed me. It is crystal clear now why the holsters are a bad idea.
