    Civilian here. I use a Ferro Bison Belt. Stupid light, stupid rigid, and stupid expensive. I don't regret it, but there's definitely cheaper options. The one thing I wish I knew was the value in having multiple inner belts. A wide padded inner is gold for over clothes, a 2" inner is gold for BDU's, and the normal 1.75" inner belt is going to tear up your pants from exposed hook. But I tell all my buddies that the first kit they need to get is a belt kit. Chest rigs are super important, but a belt is #1 priority

    • @robertomaganajr1838
      @robertomaganajr1838 7 месяцев назад +5

      I too have the Ferro Bison Belt, I stopped using the inner belts though. Strongly recommend getting Qore Performances ice vent padding system for your belt, & using a riggers belt from LBT as your daily use belt. That way you’ll have a small, thin, lightweight padded molle/ tactical belt VS a big thick war belt. You can just throw it on when you have to use it with ease of trying to get the positioning “just right”. To conclude the paragraph, you’ll basically have the best of both worlds.

      Disagree on the belt priority. Your average dude will benefit more from a chest rig for the money

    • @goobertoober95
      @goobertoober95 7 месяцев назад +1

      @Jkp1321 I agree with that. You get a lot more out of a chest rig. But when you have friends who are 1) less "radical" than you or 2) not prior military/LE it is less of a mind game for them to buy a belt than a chest rig. I've noticed most of my friends get weirded out about actual kit. But competition guys use belts, so they don't have as big a deal rationalizing that one. Once they get belts, they all end up getting the bug for gear, and now only a couple don't have chest rigs still.

Custom made retention holster for a cz p01 with a light. Super stiff and durable belt. I've gone through a lot of variations with pouch setup. Finally landed on what I like. Don't be afraid to get creative.

I can always lock into a tiedown spot in a truck bed or back of an ATV. I have it folded on on the back of my belt with a little Velcro strap.

    Whether it's a chest rig, plate carrier, or belt kit, I almost always run an inexpensive (sub $35) clone of the Benchmade SOCP dagger on the rig. Mainly because in this use, it's a pig sticker meant for getting someone off me. I'm not concerned with edge retention on a blade like that. Just a handheld spike to get someone out of my space. There are more quality versions of the dagger, but you don't need much. I like pointy blades in very quick access on my rig.

      Somebody ordered a krydex belt for me by mistake and it was straight up trash. The inner belt was floppy and made from the cheapest webbing you find at places like hobby lobby.
      I returned it and ordered a battle belt lite from Blue Alpha. The inner is rigid and i wear it as an EDC carry belt. The outer is adjustable on both sides, super light and super rigid.
      Great deal for $150. Don't waste your time on toys. If you're getting this stuff for a serious reason, be serious about it.

    I was able to put a really basic belt together with a Blackhawk inner/outer belt ($50 on sale (real Cobra buckle)), Blackhawk Omnivore holster ($30 on sale and by far the most budget lvl 2 holster), Blackhawk double pistol mag pouch ($13), random kydex AR15 mag holder with a teklok clip from a dude on eBay for like $20, and a used Wilderness Tactical dump pouch off eBay for around $10. My only tactical splurge was on a Soileater TQ pouch. The basic point here being that if you go "old school" with a belt that doesn't have any webbing or special attachment system on it you save a lot of money. Good ole "slide on" or clip on type stuff.

    I went heavy on the belt, really happy with it.
    IFAK centered on the back, two-one quart canteens/canteen pouches with a steel canteen cup in one (electrical tape in one of the pockets).
    TWO Platatac Billy pouches at 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock. 2 emergency reloads at 9 o’clock, TQ and Glock 19 at 3 o’clock. 9 o’clock pouch holds spare batteries, water filter/pouch/purification tablets, triangular bandage and a cut down VS17 panel. Right pouch holds multi tool, weapons cleaning kit, broken shell extractor, and padded PVS14 pouch.
    Put it all on an HSGI Duty-Grip padded belt. Rides well, and I have a nearly identical kit on an HSGI Sure Grip belt with an H Harness that also holds a 3 quart bladder.
