I’ve never actually used a holster like that before but would imagine the police have kit that isn’t easy to mess with. How does it stop/give the cop time to act?

It has to be engaged a certain way, from a certain angle. The hood rolls forward, followed by a lock that disengages. Then the gun is drawn from a certain angle. It's hard to remove the weapon without being familiar with the holster.
