I know of at lest one major training school that bans Serpas from their classes due to reported, and at least one witnessed, ND while drawing. The position and function of the release button are inherently bad IMO.

A ND while re-holstering can happen with any type of holster. Here is another good one caused by a worn leather holster.

Good reminder of thumb on hammer and as stated above, there is no race to the holster.

The picture I posted was the result of a transition from pistol to rifle drill.

+1, seen it happen with a serpa, luckily it was only simmunitions.
