Frequently Asked Questions
Does the QLS 22 Receiver Plate come with the QLS 19 Locking Fork?
No — this listing includes the QLS 22 Receiver Plate only. The QLS 19 Locking Fork is sold separately. To complete a functional Quick Locking System, you will need both the receiver plate and the locking fork. Safariland also offers QLS fork-and-plate kits if you prefer to purchase them together.
Which Safariland holsters and pouches are compatible with the QLS 22?
The QLS 22 Receiver Plate is compatible with any Safariland holster that uses the standard 3-hole mounting pattern, as well as any Safariland pouch with a 2-hole pattern. This covers a wide range of Safariland duty and tactical holsters, including the popular 6004, 6354, and 6360 series. If your holster or pouch uses Safariland's standard mounting footprint, it will work with the QLS system.
Can the QLS 22 Receiver Plate be mounted to a standard duty belt or MOLLE platform?
Yes. The QLS 22 screws directly onto any stable mounting surface, including tactical leg shrouds, standard belt loops, wall mounts, and vehicle mounts. While it is not a MOLLE-native attachment, Safariland offers compatible MOLLE adapters and belt loop platforms that accept the QLS 22, giving you flexible mounting options across a wide range of duty and tactical rigs.
