Not a warbelt but I'm building this for hunting. I've got an ats harness for it coming in soon.
I'm not sure what I want to do for magazines, knife, and or gun. I've got 4 molle columns on each side left. I might just keep my EDC on my belt since I've got a rifle or shotgun in my hands. It would also make a good hot weather patrol rig.  Attached File |

I love the Esstac suppressor holder that fits my YHM Resonator K almost perfectly. I had to add a small piece of Velcro so the flap closes. I really wish I could find one just like it for my TiRant 45 and Obsidian 45 and 9. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/85934/20220810_115411111_jpg-2483911.JPG @The_Syndicate Who makes that Scorpion mag pouch? |

Moved the holster forward a touch and does feel slightly better. Was worried it would make my draw feel strange. Doesn’t seem to dig straight into the seat now and force it up into my side.

Very nice. I have the Blue Alpha Gear belt and I'm very pleased with it. Although I have been thinking lately of going over to the AXL Eclipse belt, but keeping the Blue Alpha Gear inner belt. Everyone wants to add a medical pouch to the six o'clock, but consider seeing if you can keep at least six rows of MOLLE on the back free from any pouches, makes sitting and vehicle work far more comfortable. Another idea is the IFAK Roll 1 Pouch from Ferro you can sort of flip it up and use it as a lumbar support for your lower back when seated. Unfortunately that doesn't hold a TQ though and you'd have to come up with another way to hold the TQ. I really like my Soileater TQ pouch and I have an RDR TQ pouch attachment on my Safariland that works well. |

The bolt pattern on those is a lot higher on the holster than a 6390 causing it to ride a lot lower. The belt loop posted above will put the holster closer the ride height of a 6390. Mid ride is just about right most of the time. |
