Who This Is For
The Safariland 5198 is ideal for competitive shooters entering IDPA or USPSA matches who need an approved, fast-drawing holster, as well as everyday carriers who want a compact, low-profile option for concealed carry of their Glock 19. Its dual attachment system makes it equally useful for those who prefer a paddle for quick on/off or a belt loop for a more secure, all-day fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Safariland 5198 fit a Glock 19 with a rail-mounted light or laser?
The standard Safariland 5198 is molded specifically to the bare Glock 19 frame and barrel profile and is not designed to accommodate rail-mounted accessories such as weapon lights or lasers. If you carry with a light attached, Safariland offers light-bearing holster variants — check for a 5198 model specifying your light brand and model for a proper fit.
What is the difference between using the paddle attachment versus the belt loop?
The included injection-molded paddle allows for tool-free, quick on-and-off attachment over a belt or waistband, making it popular for range use and competition where you may need to remove the holster frequently. The belt loop option threads directly onto your belt for a more secure, stable fit better suited to all-day concealed carry or duty use. Both attachments are included with the holster, so you can switch based on your needs.
Is the Safariland 5198 suitable for concealed carry under a cover garment?
Yes. The 5198's compact, low-profile design and close-to-body ride height make it a practical choice for concealed carry when worn under an untucked shirt, jacket, or cover garment. The slim SafariLaminate™ shell minimizes printing, while the open-top design ensures you can achieve a clean, efficient draw when needed.
