Blackhawk was founded in 1993 by former U.S. Navy SEAL Mike Noell after his equipment failed during a reconnaissance mission in the Gulf War. What began as custom gear sewn in a Virginia garage has grown into one of the most recognized names in tactical holsters and duty equipment. Blackhawk pioneered the patented SERPA Auto-Lock retention system and continues to innovate with the T-Series thumb-activated holsters. The company manufactures its injection-molded holsters in the United States using dual-shot molding technology that combines a durable outer polymer with a low-friction inner lining.
The T-Series L3D adds a retention strap across the rear of the slide for Level 3 security. The two-stage defeat sequence—thumb release plus retention strap—maintains draw speed while providing maximum weapon security for high-threat patrol and tactical operations.
