\"\"<\/a>S & S Precision<\/a> is a product development and manufacturing company in Virginia Beach, VA.\u00a0 I saw this on their show table at SOFIC<\/a>.\u00a0 It is a Holster Extender made for Safariland\u00a0 patterned holsters utilizing the ALS system.\u00a0 The actual extender is the aluminum-colored plate you see between the tan holster and black belt loop attachment above.<\/p>\n

The extender is a simple sliding aluminum base with a large button on the front to let the holster drop into detents at 1.5″ and 3″ below the hip-riding holster position.\u00a0 The aluminum extender is protected by a special ceramic coating that also subdues the finish.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>S & S Precision caters mostly to the Military, and more specifically the Spec Ops community, hence the Virginia Beach locale.\u00a0 According to S & S Precision, “Extraordinary customers require unique solutions.”\u00a0 And further, “The crew at S&S precision eliminates the disparity between end user requirements and design\/material\/manufacturing expertise. We merge technical knowledge with real world experience to advance tactical equipment.”\u00a0 I have another one of their products in mind that I will write about in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

The Holster Extender is built only for Safariland ALS holsters now, but S & S’s\u00a0 Johnny Swan at the booth said they may be making another version for Blackhawk Serpa’s in the future.\u00a0 A list of S & S distributors is on their website.<\/p>\n

I could see this product being useful to the street cop who needs to lower his duty gun and holster when throwing on a rifle plate carrier for hot calls. This is another example of a good design which is then Made in the USA.<\/p>\n
