So I have been losing weight and plan on continuing to do so, but right now my belt belt is at the end of it's adjustment range or just about.
Anyone recommend some suspenders I could use in the meantime while I continue to lose weight so I don't have to buy a new belt till I get my goal? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By doyouquaxu: I have a HSGI better inner belt and love it. I've tried a handful of other options including the Bianchi style, Lead Devil USA Predator, and Arbor Arms Liner. Worn the HSGI with a battle belt and plain with a paddle holster. I set it at my size and wrapped the loose end with some one wrap. It doesn't loosen up, has enough structure to add some rigidity to my AWS SMU. Which Arbor Arms inner did you use? I've got my eye on their Little G hook hybrid. I carry IWB so being able to tighten or loosen up the belt easily on the fly is important to me. I like buckles that have a running tail threaded through one side that can easily be cinched up or let out vs belts that are more "set" at a size. |

Or you could just buy a Kore Battle Belt and not worry about your weight loss, just keep trimming the inner and outer belts as you shrink. :) |

I switched from a Kore to a DM Mech. Wasn't much of an upgrade, just looked cooler and it came in Multicam. :)
If your weight isn't stable, it's probably a downgrade. And frankly, the Cobra buckle is way worse than the Kore buckle for ease of use, comfort, pretty much anything other than airborne stuff most of us LARPers aren't doing. :) |

I may have asked this already. I have my belt set up like most with the med pouch in the back. The only time I have trouble is when I'm driving. I don't really have room anywhere else to put it. Any suggestions on placement? I actually needed the belt yesterday and had to drive. Wasn't comfortable.

If you have the kind with the pull-out sleeve inside, you can just yank the sleeve out while driving, and slide it back in when you get out. Or, use One-Wrap instead of MOLLE weaving, and you can easily attach/detach pouches as necessary. Either method requires that you remember to slide it back/re-attach it when you get out of the vehicle though. :) |

We run the sotech viper (larger one) at 6 on our belts. No one has issues in our Tahoes, Traverses, and a couple random UC vehicles- we do have issues with the wrap around seats of some UC vehicles and anything on the belt at 3 and 9. Another thing to do in a vehicle with a rear mounted iFak is to totally deflate the lumbar support in the seat

No armor. Maybe an excuse to get some? |

I don't really have room anywhere else to put it. Any suggestions on placement? I actually needed the belt yesterday and had to drive. Wasn't comfortable. I opted to put my IFAK in a fanny pack (Emdom's Recon Waist Bag to be precise). I use the small front pouch for gloves and boo-boo items and the main compartment for blow-out gear. Swing it to the rear to keep it out of the way and swing it to the front when you need to sit down or (God forbid) you need to use it. The tapered shape makes it hardly noticable when sitting and you can easily remove it using one fast buckle. It can hold quite a bit if you need it to as well. The only downside is that there is no loop for patches so I use bright red zipper pulls to identify it. The other advantage of putting it in a fanny pack is if you are a minimalist like me - you can wear it with your belt, with your chest rig, with you PC, on its own or in combination. You don't have to maintain multiple IFAKs for different combinations. |

So I have a friend who's a hobbyist, asking me what to get for a new belt setup. He's wanting something set up for movement and lightweight. I have no idea what he uses right now, however I can say that his pistol is a G19.
Any ideas for a belt? He's trying to lose 30 pounds by October so probably adjustable would be great too. Money is no object, he's in the entertainment industry. |

Money is no object, he's in the entertainment industry. Based off the weight loss comment, a padded belt so he can ungrow into it. I don't know what all "movement" means as far as belt requirements, but if you get a padded belt sleeve at about his goal size, he can get a new cheap inner belt if he ends up needing one. I like the ATS war belt. |

 I'm finally modern with an AWS SMU  Really digging the SMU. It's the first 1.75" belt I've tried that I've liked. It's super stiff, yet it conforms to your hips. You'll notice mine has a curve to it. Wore it for the last several days putting in something like 20 miles running around the woods. I liked it well enough I ordered a black one for work. Anyone running a good somewhat universal mag pouch that puts the bullets facing out? I run multiple handguns off this setup and while the Kywi's work okay, I prefer bullets facing out. I don't really want to resort to a Safariland 79 as the slot is cut for a 2.25" duty belt. I could probably run the ELS version with a Teklok. |

I think it’s the lowest profile inner belt I’ve used, and I wear it almost daily. The zip tie “reinforcements” are a gimmick. It is ‘structural enough’ to ccw with a decent holster. I had a g-code inner belt with mini g-hook and it added too many layers. |

My long-time MOLLE belt got too big as I've been working on diet and exercise, so it was time to figure out something new. I know that everyone tends towards inner/outer designs, but I like to run a lot of jackets and smocks that make access to the belt more difficult. Still, I liked the idea of a 2" duty belt rather than MOLLE. Ended up going backwards in time and put this together, and I'm a big fan. Still meets my needs by having the essentials and letting me run any of my weapon systems in the safe be it 5.56, 7.62, shotgun, or bolt action.
- Emdom/MM CM belt, with pad - Esstac Kywi double pistol mag with gap - G-Code Scorpion rifle speed reload - ATS Enfilade roll up dump pouch - SO Tech Viper A1 Mini IFAK - Arbor Arms Multi-Function Pouch, typically for a canteen but will work for just about anything - Dara Level 2 holster on a QD mount with my CZ P07 - [Not pictured] Horizontal TQ mount in front of holster

Why use different body movements to reload instead of the same? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By CJ47: I also have never understood why people run their pistol mags forward but their rifle mags backwards. Why use different body movements to reload instead of the same? Simple answer, a rifle mag doesn't go into the pistol grip nor is the mag fully covered by the lower receiver when fully inserted like a pistol. Assuming off the belt loads are for emergencies, 3-gun has shown beer can grab without twisting your arm is fast. Also 3-gun has shown that finger index on the bullets of your pistol is faster than beer can because beer can has the tendency to pinch the shit out of your hand by the time it's fully seated. I suppose if you only ran extended mags, beer can is all you need for pistol. |

The flat IFAK does not get in the way of sitting at all. I've been running it this way on several kits for a while. It only works with flat style IFAKs like this, though.
As for the canteen....well, it comes out of the pouch. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By PistoleroJesse: Simple answer, a rifle mag doesn't go into the pistol grip nor is the mag fully covered by the lower receiver when fully inserted like a pistol. Assuming off the belt loads are for emergencies, 3-gun has shown beer can grab without twisting your arm is fast. Also 3-gun has shown that finger index on the bullets of your pistol is faster than beer can because beer can has the tendency to pinch the shit out of your hand by the time it's fully seated. I suppose if you only ran extended mags, beer can is all you need for pistol. I run everything rounds pointed rearwards. Maybe it’s me then lol I’m just much more fluid and quicker keeping them identical. Maybe I’m autistic. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By CJ47: You must hate sitting down in belts. Canteen and an iFak that size at 6’o clock would suck. I also have never understood why people run their pistol mags forward but their rifle mags backwards. Why use different body movements to reload instead of the same?

I have a bunch of holsters but got a new asstec belt set up and want a modular qd pistol holster. Something I can swap fast mostly between a g19 and a poly 80 g17 with threaded barrel and rmr. Saw a bunch of of these types at the last CW I was at. What am I looking for?
