Most are actually just two pieces of leather with an optimistic outline of a pistol stamped into one side. No special devices at all.
I'm sure some cops somewhere still do that, but I can't remember the last time I saw a uniformed patrol officer not using some kind of retention holster. Even the old fashion leather holsters had thumbsnaps every time I've seen them for the kind of role.
