I have a low profile battle belt with 2 rows of PALS webbing.  I'd like to find something to attach an ELS receiver so I can swap my holster from my competition belt (CARBS) to the battle belt.

I bought an MLS16 but it appears to be designed for belts with 4+ rows of PALS webbing.

I thought about a small MolleLok, but I'm not sure it is beefy enough for use with a holster.  Maybe if I use 2 MolleLoks on a piece of kydex, then bolt the ELS receiver to the kydex.

Any thoughts?

Th molle lock will have an annoying amount of play no matter what. You need this adapter below

Looks good, but $75 is a bit rich.

I already have the holster on a hanger with all of the adjustment I need.  I'm just looking for a simple way to mate an ELS receiver to two rows of PALS.

I have receivers and forks.  I want to attach a receiver to 2 rows of MOLLE/PALS webbing.  The MOLLE attachment that Safariland sells (MLS16) appears to be designed for 4 or more rows.

Use a UBL with a QLS. No need to overthink it.

Definitely no need to attach it to the MOLLE.

ETA: ELS is for mag pouches and accessories, you want QLS for holsters.

I actually have a few QLS sets, but they seemed too big for my comp belt and a lot of 3G guys just use ELS for everything.  Also, the hole pattern on my comp belt matched ELS, but not QLS, so I just decided to stick with all ELS.  I'm sure QLS is stronger, but I have yet to hear of a single instance of ELS failing when used with a holster.
