I keep reading that the contoured belts are the best for women, but I don't remember any sources bring mentioned.

So, sources, please. I'm just looking for at the range, not everyday carry, since I'm in IL.

Thanks!

Dunno about contoured. After I wear them a while, they're all contoured.

I have an Ares Ranger belt I got as a gift. They're spendy but its the best gun belt I've ever had. There are a lot that look similar, but they're knockoffs.

Thanks! I did some googling on my phone at lunch and found out that Galco (sp?) has some.

Good news - I'm taking the NRA Basic Pistol Class in late May. The instructor has suggested I wait until after that class to get my handgun, as I'll have the chance to try out lots during the class. That gives me time to make a purchase before the Personal Protection Inside the Home (late July) and Outside the Home (late August) I hope to take later in the summer.

Marie, we're having a handgun 1 class here for breast cancer research in May, if you'd be interested. Steve Fisher of Magpul is teaching it for me..cost is $100.00 and that's a heck of a deal. Its not really a public class, but there are still 4 seats avaialable, if you'd like to attend, and I know there are at least a couple people from the Chicago area attending...and there are definitely more women than men in this class..pretty cool.

Sounds great, but I've already sent off my $70 for the NRA basic class in May. Plus, it's closer. Sorry. :( Wish I'd known beforehand,

Yeah, you'd definitely need to take at least Basic Pistol prior to this class anyway.
