Overland Park, KS -(AmmoLand.com)- The Swiss Army has selected the BLACKHAWK! SERPA Tactical Holster to outfit its warfighters.
The SERPA has been field-proven in military conflicts and law enforcement engagements worldwide, and is currently serving as the holster platform for the U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army, Army Military Police, the German Army and other law enforcement and military agencies both domestic and international.
BLACKHAWK! has received the initial order of SERPA holsters in various configurations. These different models will allow the use of the same holster system in varying job roles so that, no matter a soldier’s mission, the trusted durability and simple operation will always be the same.
“We’re obviously very pleased that the SERPA has once again come out on top with a very demanding user group,” said Jarrett Beck, Global Product Director for BLACKHAWK! “This affirms that the BLACKHAWK! SERPA holster gives our customers the ability to configure their sidearm according to the mission and allows all soldiers in differing roles to use the same piece of gear.”
BLACKHAWK!, a Vista Outdoor Inc. brand, is constantly researching, refining and perfecting every detail to provide tactical gear that won’t let you down. For more information, visit www.blackhawk.com.
