Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 4FishLimit: Ok...got an Esstac enhanced belt in my shopping cart...any other belts that I should really be considering for a first belt? Esstac comes with inner and outer belt for the same cost that many just sell the outer, so its seems like a great bang for the buck. Nope. Esstac only. Add Kywi gap pistol and one or two midlength rifle pouches |

If I select one wrap as the attachment type does that mean they'll include the wrap itself or will I need to pick some up as well? |

I have an enhanced shooter's belt, 2011 double pistol GAP Kywi pouch and a 5.56 double Kywi midlength pouches headed my way. That at least gets me started and gives me a little more gear to use at APC range days. I noticed that Esstac sells through Amazon, so I'll likely order future stuff through there to get a few bucks tossed towards the APC at the same time.  |

I really like my enhanced shooters belt. Also check out a horizontal mag pouch. They're for special people.

This is my first belt, so much like carry holsters I'm sure I'll end up with a bunch of stuff that didn't work out so great in pursuit of the perfect setup. Figured I was safe with a relatively standard pouch setup to start with. Also gonna pick up a couple shotgun cards for my 870...may as well Esstac all the things. |

I have had my enhanced belt and mag pouches about a week or so now. I really like them. I'm pretty sold on the one wrap. Esstac shipped the order in less than an hour. Can't complain about that. I would be very careful ordering brand name products off of Amazon. I have ordered stuff that I thought was real, but it was a copy. I got a fake Surefire light, and a fake set of Ameriglo sights. I'll just order direct for stuff I care about now. |

It looks like the gear I'm seeing listed are shipped and sold by Amazon via Esstac, so I should be good to go. I certainly wouldn't order any open box/warehouse deal items though as those will likely have the highest possibility of being a fake. The biggest reason I would order via Amazon is to toss a little money toward the APC via my Amazon Smile donations. |

Finally get to post in this thread
Blue Alpha 1.75 belt, no molle Blue alpha TQ holder Enhanced inner belt (wearing it) Safariland ALS for M&P with Trl HL. Currently hate the dropped offset mount but I’ll see if I want to replace it Esstac double pistol. Yes I know the risk of reloading a multi tool but realistically pistol is back up snd I’m low speed Esstac low rifle hSGI taco. All one-wrap. Holy shit that’s sooo much easier than all the old school competition stuff. Not 100% sold on this whole thing snd it weighs in at ~8 pounds, which seems like a lot.  Attached File |

The wizards at Esstac managed to convince USPS to deliver mail today...so this was on my doorstep when I got home from work:
 Esstac Enhanced Shooter's Belt, double gap 2011 Kywi and midlength double rifle Kywi. Holster is a Safariland 578 GLS with QLS on a QUBL belt loop. I previously decided to change out the holster for something that will will be light compatible, but I'll keep using this one in the meantime. Since it will fit a variety of pistols it will probably turn into a loaner holster. After a couple of practice draws with the new belt I'll probably ditch the adjustable belt loop too. The bottom of the holster pulls away a lot more now and I can see that cause a hang up on draw. |

An additional hook/loop inner pad would be nice as well when not using the inner belt i.e for when things go bump in the night duty. Grab and go! Again very nice.

And there's always the option of the VTAC suspenders. |

And there's always the option of the VTAC suspenders. YES, You are right. After looking at it's construction it's just designed for hanging gear on. The tegris material probably only has 25% the linear strength of webbing despite it's rigidity, not that it's weak, it's just not designed as a tether device. The molle and nylon fabric aren't enough to give any real tensile strength needed for a safe retention system. A great looking and designed belt none the less for it's intent. Now that we have the pajama operations covered with the wider inner belt maybe they can squeeze some 2" webbing between the tegris and molle with a #25 D-ring buckle for some other load options. If that were possible I think they would have all the bases covered by way of product evolution. I really like this direction they are going in. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Fairweather: Typically the inner belt goes through the belt loops on your pants, replacing your regular pants belt. So it both holds your pants up and services as an anchor for the outer belt. The outer belt has the holster (and your other gear) mounted on it. The idea is that the outer belt can be removed without having to remove the inner belt.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By alpha0815: Just got my Blue Alpha MOLLE belt in and all setup. So far, it seems like a solid belt at a great price and short lead time. Not wild about the slack belt keep, but I’ll probably get used to it. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/311137/CB0A77AB-3989-416D-A4F4-51CE72E079F6_jpe-2564055.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/311137/C5382CC3-1A9A-494D-BB69-0085BB4D8D58_jpe-2564057.JPG Nice looking setup. What brand holster? |

Some people like thicker inner belts they can use for edc. I honestly prefer thinner ones since I don't edc with the inner belts. I can get everything a bit tighter that way. Honestly that's simply personal preference

Save that shit for the range or operating operationally. The need to have a Velcro inner as your EDC belt so you can don a battle belt right quick is pretty damned limited for most folks. |
