I'm a big fan of SERPAs as well, and own a few for different pistols. The real SERPAs are so cheap, and the clones are so expensive, that it's not even worth buying a clone.

I haven't done ridiculous shit to my holster, but it's held just fine to BB hits, leaning/laying on it, slamming into walls with it on my hip, etc. That's with the pistol out, so it didn't have the pistol to support its structure.

None of my SERPAs have taken a hit directly to the release button (that I know of), but the button is the same material as the body, and the spring is pretty solid compared to the clone I once owned. The clone I used (it was included with a used gun I bought) had a really shitty spring mechanism for the button, and would actually pop out from time to time. All 'round turrble for holstering and drawing. Then I went out and bought a SERPA for that model pistol, and was back to experiencing the joys of a reliable holster.

Holsters make a big difference if you rely on your pistol heavily for QCB. Get a quality one.
