disagree  GILLES MEUNIER: device c'est pas patte

  -> sur un holster, si, mais je n'ai pas d'illustration liée à la demande
agree  mchd: avec Gilles, et je ne pense pas que "rétention" convienne pour une arme !
14 mins
  -> détention ne convenait pas (détention d'arme :-) ) et il reste maintien (de l'ordre :-))
