My first real belt.

[b4uqzme]

^^ i've been wearing one that's just single stitched for +/- 2 years now and still works great. There are a couple of vendors who show up at local gun shows and sell them real cheap.

[Bawanna]

It's double stitched, roller stainless buckle, beveled edges and sealed edges. Even available with 3/4 hole spacing. It's perfect.
I think I will order the 3/16 and not the 1/4 thick. Doesn't seem necessary with a light weapon.
And I should get the 1.5? Would the 1.25 do?
Seems like the 1.25 would do fine and be much less obvious.
Am I crazy or should I get the 1.5?

Free shipping and has everything I want for 60.00

I think you'd be fine with 1.25 if that's your normal size and style. I'd probably go the thicker if you go 1.25.
Rigidity is what you seek and thickness is what gets you there.

Nothing like a good stiff belt ya know?

When you can roll up a thick, stiff leather gun belt to fit into a small box, I become suspect. My belt is so stiff, it barely bends around me.

Now this one looks really nice: https://www.daltechforce.com/special...rnal-stiffener

Same company, but has steel reinforcement, pretty nice! Id get the 1/4th Bullhide with the steel liner, 1.5 inches wide. That will spread the weight of your attachments around your whole waist and stop the sagging on your gun side.

Did you see the belt on a box?

[Bawanna]

The investigator dress belt at the bottom of that same page linked to looks good too. 1.25 and kind of dressy if you have to dress up for work and stuff.
With optional stiffener it would be close to a 100 bucks but a lot of good gun belts are 100 bucks easy.
I didn't see a box either.
When mine was new (I forgot to try and find the guys name) you could almost hold it out straight in front of you.
It's a good belt, need to put some polish or something on it from sliding stuff on and off it.

What about the width in regards to my holster clips?
Will the 1.25 belt allow the holster to move around of the cloud are 1.5", or is that not really a Concern?

[Bawanna]

Usually with a thick quality gun belt it's not a concern. I have some clip type holsters that are difficult to get over my belt, they weren't designed for the thickness.

Loop style holsters might move a bit but again usually not enough to be a concern. Gives you a little additional cant option.

[lamppa]

Well,I made up my mind.
Daltech dual layer stitched. Decided the dual layer was a better option. No internal stiffener.

1.5" wide
.25 thick
Silver stainless roller buckle (my accessories are all silver, no gold)
3/4" hole spacing
Size 37

64.00 shipped.
I'm excited.

[Bawanna]

I'm excited too. Let us know how it works and what you think of it when it arrives.

Seems like a heck of a good deal if it's half as good as it looks.

So much to say here......
Came in a bag, like a white bubble lined bag.
Inside it had a business card and one additional fastener set, a coupon, made in USA sticker and the belt.
Belt is thick and not too stiff. It's great. I wish I had purchased a good belt ten years ago. Holds pants up without being too tight. Seems like quality build.
Holds the weapon in a completely different fashion. You have to relearn where to wear it. It's unreal how much better it feels while seated. Standing it digs my hip a bit. I'm going to drill a hole in the clip to change the angle, again. I already drilled the rear one. Now I will drill the front one. I can't move the rear one back because in the original position it is too low to grab easily. If I bring the front up, it will be the same original can't, but easier to grab. It's going to take some learning again, but it is really more stable this way. This belt makes it easier to bend over, easier to run, easier to do things without worrying about printing.
For 64.00 and free shipping,I wish I had one ten years ago. The communication via email was amazing. Three conversations and all of them were within three hours of the original email.

I would recommend this company, so far, as a top notch choice.
Very impressed. 9 days order to delivery. Great price, great product

[Bobshouse]

I was really surprised how much of a difference a good belt made. It distributes the weight better around your waist. It will, no mater how thick, eventually mold itself to your shape, becoming more comfortable.

[berettabone]

I kind of consider OWB carry without a good belt, kind of crazy..................no stability.

[lamppa]

Still love this belt.
It's softer now and very comfortable. The holster stays very well, I'm glad I chose the 1.5" wide because the clips for perfect on the wider belt.
I have recommended this brand to several people since I bought.

[b4uqzme]

Yep. My current Daltech belt is a few years old and going strong.
