Description
The Safariland 7378 7TS is built for folks who want real retention without giving up a fast, uncomplicated draw. It pairs Safariland's ALS (Automatic Locking System) with a clean open-top design, so your Glock 43 locks in automatically the second it's seated in the holster. There's no thumb break to fumble and no hood to sweep off the top. You grip the pistol, your thumb naturally rides across the release, and the gun comes straight up. Most people get the motion down after just a handful of practice draws.
What Sets the 7378 7TS Apart
The body is molded from SafariSeven, a proprietary nylon blend that takes serious abuse and keeps working. It handles high heat and bitter cold without warping and needs almost no upkeep to stay in shape. The material is non-marking too, so it won't chew up the finish on your slide. Raised interior stand-offs create a little air gap around the pistol, which lets dirt, sand, and moisture clear out instead of grinding against your gun. If you carry in rough weather or dusty conditions, that detail earns its keep.
Carry Options With the Glock 43 Holster
This model ships as a combo, meaning you get both a removable paddle and a belt loop in the box. The paddle rides close to the body and holds tight to your waistband for quick on-and-off wear, while the belt loop gives you a more locked-down setup on a stiffer belt. It also drops cleanly onto Safariland's QLS system if you already run their quick-detach mounts. The 7378 fits the Glock 43 and plays nice with the 43X for a right-hand draw.
This is an outside-the-waistband holster at heart, so it leans toward range use, open carry, and off-duty wear rather than deep concealment under a t-shirt. Pair it with a decent cover garment and it disappears well enough for everyday carry, and the ALS retention gives you peace of mind that the gun stays put until you want it out.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the ALS retention on the Safariland 7378 work?
The ALS locks the pistol in place automatically the moment you seat it in the holster, with a clear click letting you know it's secure. To draw, you establish your normal shooting grip and your thumb sweeps across the release lever, freeing the gun for a straight-up draw. It feels natural after a few reps, and there's no separate thumb break or hood to deal with.
Does this 7378 holster fit the Glock 43X as well as the Glock 43?
Yes, this fit covers both the Glock 43 and the Glock 43X in a right-hand configuration. The ALS locks into the ejection port area, so the retention works consistently across those compatible models.
Can I run the Safariland 7378 with a belt loop instead of the paddle?
Absolutely. It comes as a combo with both a removable paddle and a belt loop, so you can choose the setup that fits your carry style. Plenty of folks prefer the belt loop for the added stability of a rigid belt, and the holster body also drops onto Safariland's QLS quick-detach system if you use one.
Is the 7378 7TS good for concealed carry or more of an OWB range holster?
It's an outside-the-waistband design, so it shines for range use, open carry, and off-duty wear. With a proper cover garment it conceals well enough for everyday carry, though it isn't a deep-concealment IWB rig. If you want secure retention with a quick draw in an OWB package, this is a strong pick.
