Frequently Asked Questions
Does the QLS 19 Locking Fork work with all Safariland holsters?
The QLS 19 is compatible with any Safariland holster or pouch that features the standard 2-hole or 3-hole mounting pattern on the back of the holster body. This covers the vast majority of Safariland's duty and tactical holster lineup, including popular models like the 6004, 6360, and 7TS series. If you're unsure whether your holster is compatible, check the back panel for the standardized Safariland mounting holes.
Do I need to purchase the QLS 22 Receiver Plate separately?
Yes. The QLS 19 Locking Fork is sold as a single-component kit and does not include a receiver plate. To complete a functional quick-locking system, you will need to separately purchase either the QLS 22 or QLS 22L Receiver Plate, which attaches to your chosen mounting platform such as a belt loop or leg shroud. The fork and plate together form the complete QLS system.
How secure is the QLS connection — will the holster detach unintentionally?
When properly mated with a QLS 22 or QLS 22L Receiver Plate, the QLS 19 Locking Fork passes Safariland's Level I Retention™ pull test, meaning it is engineered to resist accidental disconnection under normal duty and tactical conditions. The locking mechanism requires a deliberate release motion, reducing the risk of unintended detachment during physical activity or a struggle.
