The Belt man vs. Comp-Tac?
11/24/2011 6:42:05 PM
Looking for a good CCW leather belt. I was about to order a Belt man but just got an Email from Comp-Tac advertising 20% off black Friday special. What should I go with? Thanks

I have one of the 1.5" black Beltman "quick ship" belts. They do not have the kydex reinforcement in them.
I also have a 1.5" kydex reinforced Comptac belt.
Both are terrific quality. I stopped carrying with my Comptac belt a while back after I got my Beltman. The Beltman is more comfortable for me. The Beltman belt is stiff enough without the kydex reinforcement to carry everything without sagging. The problems I had with the Comptac was that 1) it was so stiff (and I'm skinny) that it really dug into my hip bones and was painful by the end of a day, and 2) the belt is so thick with the reinforcement in it that it would not fit in many of my suit pant's belt loops––they're 1.5" loops and the Beltman fits through them, but the really thick Comptac won't. The belt loop thing isn't the Comptac belt's fault, just something else to be aware of.

I just ordered a beltman if it says anything. It was not a quick ship so I am waiting on it. I ordered the dark brown color and also got the velcro on the inside for my MTAC holster. I will definitely post some pictures when it gets here.
