Description
Safariland QLS Fork
The Safariland QLS male receiver available at Defense Distributors is a locking fork that forms the active connection point in the Quick Locking System. It mounts to the back of compatible holsters and pouches that use Safariland’s three hole pattern. When paired with a QLS receiver plate on a belt mount or platform, the male fork lets you attach or remove gear instantly without rethreading belts or swapping hardware.
What It Does
This QLS male fork becomes the engaging half of the Quick Locking System. Once installed on your holster or pouch it mates with a QLS receiver plate so you can secure your gear to a belt loop, paddle or other mounting point and remove it with a pinch release. The design creates a tight lock with no movement once engaged. This receiver fork works with a range of QLS plates and gives you modularity while keeping gear stable under movement or recoil.
