Vehicle Handcuff Holster

[Just-in]

If you can make one to fit the B post in an international and Ford F-series I bet tow companies would buy them. I hate my light rolling around on the floor.

Tourniquet holder would be a better idea to me....

[RedVines]

I know many guys who don't keep their big lights on their belt but rather in their sap pockets. When they get into the car they place them in the side of the door. A holder for for those might be something to think about too.

A holder for a Streamlight SL20 series flashlights would probably sell.

Sure would.

As far as this cuff holder deal. Why on earth would you need them in your car... if so carry a ton of zip cuffs (per individual agency policy)... as the only time you would be going to your car to get cuffs should be the time you require a ton for a riot type situation.

[TrailerparkTrash]

Hmmmm, I don't get it. As others have said, if you need more than the two you carry on one's Sam brown, use your partner's or flex cuffs.

Other than watching bad re-runs of "COPS," from the east coast where some back there like to place cuffs around a spot light handle, I've never ever seen anyone in LA County carry that way. Nor Orange, San Berdo or Riverside for that matter.

Also, when exiting a patrol car, the last thing I want to do is have something in my gun hand, especially since my other hand has a flashlight in it.

Again, why????

My second pair of cuffs is either on the spotlight handle of my side (depends if I'm driver or radioman that night) or hanging from a belt keeper on my backside.

Neat idea, but I dunno how practical. And if any of it screws into the trim that might kill it for a lot of guys. Pool cars = don't GQ it up.

[IlDuche]

22 the part about modifying the trim. I was wrong, sounds like a temp install. Which makes me curious how long it would last...might be an idea for plainclothes though.

If you have the time to get back to the patrol unit to get the handcuffs out of this holder, then you have the time to get the handcuffs out of a extra bag.

With a holder like this, it would be easier to forget about the taking the handcuffs out of the vehicle. So there is a good chance that you would loose them to another officer when you came back to work

[mikel7070]

I would definitely be interested in a double set....

A little OT and just my 2 cents as a retired leo, but you may want to reconsider hanging a pair of cuffs on the spotlight handle. Tho it obviously hasn't occurred or you would have probably mentioned it, a code 3 pursuit with a lot of turns or worse, an accident, might result in those cuffs causing injury to you or your partner if they come off and go flying. Please, no discussion about this from any member that turns this completely OT; just something to think about. Be safe.

On my belt. If my cuffs aren't on me, they're no good to me.

[PsychGuy274]

I carry two cuffs on me and two more in my war bag along with a bunch of disposables. It's a cool idea, but I'm not sure if I'd really use it.

[Tac380]

I like the idea but as others have pointed out it may not be practical. I carried two sets on my belt and 2 flex cuffs wrapped around my belt under the gear. That's 4 cuffs in all. I would think by that time backup would be there or safety would be an issue where you would wait for back-up before approaching a situation that required cuffing 4 people.
Flying objects in a crash or high speed pursuit and it coming loose is also a concern.
Again its a neat idea, I'm sure there would be people interested but not sure its practical, price point would also be an issue. One other thing is if it can't be installed and removed in 60 seconds or less I'm not sure I would want to do that every shift.

just my 2 cents

I can see everyone's concern for flying debris in a collision or pursuit. And I know not everyone utilizes the spot lamp to hang cuffs but keep in mind many do and not everyone carries flex cuffs or are allowed to per department policy. Understand the basic kydex holster concepts and usage. The cuffs are very secure and will not come out regardless of how aggressive you are driving and will only come out if pulled with enough force in one single direction.

In the details describing the holster above, it states the simplicity of installation with out the need for hardware. The holster does not require any tool or supplemental material to install. The holster can be installed or removed in less than 30 seconds.
