I regard it the same way which is why I will probably switch back. I used the belt loop to reduce printing, but now that I can't carry at work and OC is the law there are fewer times when I'll be concerned about being discreet.

There was a YouTube video posted here recently that demonstrated how disturbingly easy it is to rip a gun off someone's hip by separating the holster from the paddle in a quick move.

I communicated with the video maker. The holster in the video is a Fobus.
I don't think that will work with a Serpa...at least not that easily. The paddle or belt attachment is attached with three screws. Then again, I'm not going to use it for OC.

Re: Fobus Paddle Holsters

I have Serpas. I had the same concern so prior to OC being passed I took the paddle off and replaced it with the belt attachment which brings the gun in a little closer. Since OC passed I'm less concerned with printing so I'm considering putting the paddle back on. I had been using them infrequently in the past but since my company banned OC and CC last month I've been using one with my G17.
