Still have both of mine. Carried a 58 when I was on motors, and really liked the security that holster gave me. I also had one for my m-65 that I competed with in IPSC, I liked using the same type of holster in competition that I carried for duty. The IPSC matches I shot also had rules about weapon retention when it came to holsters, never had any issues there.
The draw from the holster was an acquired skill, but once you had done it about a million times, it became easier.
