WARNING: READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND OTHER WARNINGS BEFORE PUTTING THE HANDGUN INTO THE HOLSTER.
The maker of BLACKHAWK! Law Enforcement® Carbon Fiber Holsters, BLACKHAWK!®, warns all users of these holsters to exercise extreme caution in the handling of any firearm. Because any firearm is potentially dangerous, the user should successfully complete a recognized firearms safety course before handling or employing one.
Although all BLACKHAWK!® Holsters are designed with the utmost care and concern for safety, the use of a firearm with a holster remains an activity that requires training, skill and care in the proper use of both the firearm and the holster.
BLACKHAWK! Law Enforcement® Carbon Fiber Holsters are intended primarily for law enforcement and military applications by law enforcement and military personnel trained and certified by their agency or branch of service in the use of holsters and the carry and use of handguns. It is recommended that non-military and non-law enforcement personnel never attempt to holster or carry a sidearm in a ready-to-fire condition.
For law enforcement and military applications, BLACKHAWK!® recommends that the user practice drawing and reholstering an unloaded handgun from the holster until they can do so correctly, even under stressful conditions, before he or she attempts to employ a loaded weapon in any condition or environment.
Furthermore, BLACKHAWK!® recommends to such law enforcement and military personnel that you do not carry a gun in a ready-to-fire condition unless you are trained and certified by your agency or branch of service to carry a gun in this condition and the gun is manufactured to be carried safely in this condition. Additionally, it is recommended to the same law enforcement and military personnel that you do not carry a semi-auto pistol in a cocked (i.e. "cocked and locked") condition unless it has been manufactured to be carried safely in this condition. If you carry a semi-auto pistol and carry it cocked (i.e. "cocked and locked"), you should be trained and certified to carry a gun in this condition.
In using any of the BLACKHAWK! Law Enforcement® Carbon Fiber Holsters described in this pamphlet, the user must be aware that each holster is designed to fit a specific group of handguns and therefore may not fit the contours of certain handguns exactly. BLACKHAWK! Law Enforcement® Carbon Fiber Holsters are constructed in such a fashion that they are designed only for the guns listed for each particular holster and size.
YOU SHOULD NOT USE THIS HOLSTER UNTIL YOU HAVE VERIFIED THE SIZE AND FIT INFORMATION, HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THESE WARNINGS, HAVE READ AND FOLLOWED THE ENCLOSED INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE, AND HAVE PRACTICED WITH THE HOLSTER AS DESCRIBED HEREIN. IN SOME CASES THE HOLSTER MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED FOR YOU PERSONALLY AND FOR YOUR FIREARM.
