Re: The SERPA Stinks, And That’s Just All There Is To Say About It

You "Serpa Supporters" have to watch these two videos. The video is with Patrick Sweeney, and for two whole minutes, he declares that anyone who doesn't like the Serpa holster is either uninformed or misinformed, that they are total amateurs who are not smart enough to know the 4 rules, or who are just plain too stupid to keep their finger off of the trigger.

At the 2:28 mark, Mr "well trained Serpa Supporter" then draws his PPQ from his Serpa, in slow motion no less, and Mr "I always keep my finger straight when I draw from a Serpa" well... his finger curls into the trigger guard and touches what? Oh... THE TRIGGER.

The second video is even slower motion, destroying any doubt that, even for "highly trained super-professionals", that the Serpa is flawed in its design of unlocking the pistol using the index finger. End of story, no possible dissent can be seriously considered.

I've seen this video before, but since it was essentially a pair of industry insiders giving a sales pitch I chalked it up to "just another self proffessed expert" who talks better than he can perform.

Since you posted it here, I actually Googled to see who the heck Patrick Sweeney is.... A retired gunsmith & gun editor. I'd suggest he's perhaps not so well trained, similar to the other internet guy that shot himself in the leg cited earlier (who also snapped the trigger on the draw).
