I agree. I would expect any service holster to at least have some kind of a mechanical lock to prevent theft or an accidental drop of a gun.

I have a cheap plastic holster that requires a button press with your index finger. You can do this while grabbing the handle and starting to pull the gun. When completely pulled out, your finger is then aligned near to the trigger for quick response times. That’s the system I expect a modern police to have. It’s really difficult to take the gun out when you’re not pulling from above from a natural position.

I know the cops in the US have a very bad reputation but this can’t be true.
