Final update to my belt. Very happy with this setup. Ran it at the range the other day and it worked great.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By ironshaolin: Nice setup! I have a bunch of Gcode holsters, I've been trying to figure a way to get a leg strap added on. I have the optimal drop mount on my belt right now, but want to secure it a little more. So you get the RTI adapter and just mount it to a safariland mid ride, and the leg strap fits right through? I think I may try this set up, it would certainly be cheaper than getting the safariland QLS system and replacing all my holsters. I LOVE my optimal drop platform. The material is THICK and very supportive. I could be biased, I hate hate hate hate things strapped to my legs as it really screws up my gait while running. If you get a safariland holster with the screwholes up higher on the holster, it rides lower (which is nice) but having the gun separate from my leg is much better when running/moving/walking. |

Well, the KWYI is a 2x2, so can't split that. But, the others could be dropped. I'm trying to decide how much a first line belt needs, yet remains practical. I guess when my rifle and pistol have lights, I may not need a hand held on the belt. And the multi tool could go elsewhere.

If you have a light with a pocket clip stick it there, same with a folding knife. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By arcfootball17: Just a little constructive criticism: what is the large pouch in the center of your back for? Seems like a hard spot to retrieve anything you need quickly. If it's not needed quickly do you think you could place those items in a backpack or go-bag? Has the potential to be extremely uncomfortable if you needed to sit/drive for any period of time. Edit: I forgot to add that you may want to consider turning your Glock mags the other direction for quicker reloads. 
The large pouch is what I've been using for an IFAK. It's actually easy to get to with either hand, and because it's so wide and tall, it's pretty thin which makes it surprisingly comfortable to sit on. I may end up changing it out for a proper IFAK pouch but it's working okay for now. |

Fixed blade on your belt. How many really use it? Is it for a defensive role? As in you lose your rifle..You lose your handgun..Now you go to your knife? Or is it more of handy access to a camp tool? I'm thinking of adding a small fixed blade as a camp tool.
