I don’t, and I don’t feel much better about simple ALS retention either - I always use ALS guards to add a second step and protect that button. I don’t use active retention much since I quit hanging out in the ‘hood, though.
She clearly planned to do this and knew how to work the holster. While the video asks the question of why this was so easy, the question I do not see addressed is what would drive her to do it. I know nothing about her individual circumstances, but our society is currently so f***** up that 1 in 3 teenage girls has considered suicide.
I see the pressure my own daughter puts herself under to conform to whatever set of standards matter in her world. My understanding is that teenage girls have always felt or put themselves under pressure, but what I see today is crazy.
With apologies for the thread drift in the support gear subforum, making sure our gear is secured and access given after only careful consideration goes beyond holster selection.
What does thumb snap have to do with it…?
Also curious about thumb break detail. If it was, I’m curious if it was actually engaged or not.

What I thought I saw was this type of holster……Attachment 116784
My point being an observation about how little true retention strength this type of holster offers.
