PROPER HOLSTER FIT
NEVER PLACE A LOADED HANDGUN IN A HOLSTER WITHOUT FIRST TESTING FOR PROPER FIT WITH THE HANDGUN UNLOADED. Although TactiPac™ attempts to provide accurate information regarding which specific holster models were designed to accommodate a specifically identified handgun, or handguns, TactiPac™ does not does not warrant the accuracy of such information and specifically disclaims any responsibility or liability for, or consequences resulting from errors or inaccuracies in such information. Users are advised not to rely on such compatibility information but are advised to personally verify holster/handgun compatibility in each and every case using actual products.
Handgun manufacturers continually update manufacturing specification in their quest for better products. These changes may occur one or more times within a particular handgun model year, and make it difficult for proper handgun identification and holster fit.
The slightest change in handgun design can have a major safety effect on the TactiPac™ holster products. These changes may not affect other holster brands that do not maintain the TactiPac™ molded fit.
If the user has any questions or doubt concerning holster fit, contact TactiPac™ immediately as to which version of a particular handgun you and/or your customer may possess and its compatibility with TactiPac™ holsters.
Be advised that it is the user’s responsibility to periodically check his or her holster and related hardware for proper fit and function. Should any product, including a TactiPac™ product, become worn, loose, broken, defective or ill fitting, CEASE USE IMMEDIATELY.
OTHER VERY IMPORTANT WARNINGS
VERY IMPORTANT: DO NOT attempt to put on or take off your TactiPac™ Holster with your firearm in the holster. Doing so can result in dropping the firearm or the firearm falling out of the holster. The safest method of putting on and removing your TactiPac™ holster is with out your gun in it.
DO NOT use TactiPac™ holsters with custom or modified guns, broken, worn or inferior manufactured guns, including guns that are not of original factory specifications. DO NOT use after-market grips, grip adapters, target hammers, target triggers, or trigger shoes. After market handgun modifications may cause improper holster fit and ACCIDENTAL HANDGUN DISCHARGE. Never attempt to modify TactiPac™ products in any way.
Do not attempt to cock a handgun while holstered as such cocking can cause severe damage to either the handgun or holster, or both, and may cause an ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE.
Some users of certain handgun models insist on carrying the weapon in what is referred to as a cocked and locked condition (i.e., the gun is cocked with the safety engaged). TactiPac™ does not recommend or approve of any such practice, and advises against it. This condition for such handguns should be reserved only for the most advanced, experienced and skilled professional shooters under conditions that require the handgun to be drawn and fired under extremely short time constraints. Carrying a handgun in this condition INCREASES THE RISK OF ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE. The cocked and locked condition should only be used by those who have the training and experience to recognize the inherent risks associated with it.
It should be noted that NO HOLSTER IS COMPLETELY SNATCH-PROOF OR TAKEAWAY-PROOF. Therefore, the user must exercise extreme diligence at all times in any situation where another person may attempt to take the user’s handgun. The handgun should be held in place by the user whenever vigorous activity such as running, jumping, falling or tumbling is encountered or attempted. ALWAYS keep safety straps engaged if the holster is so equipped.
Keep thumb on back of hammer or slide when inserting handgun in holster to help assure no movement occurs during insertion. Always keep fingers clear of trigger when drawing or replacing handgun in holster. Place index finger on outside of trigger guard to resist inadvertent strap or foreign object interference when re-holstering.
Finally, please do not use any TactiPac™ product for any use that it was not intended for or specifically designed to be used for. This includes using any of our holsters in a position or application that it was not intended for or specifically designed to be used for.
