Battle belts

[AtlMedic]

anyone here use a battle belt?

I have been planning on getting something to hold mags and medical stuff. It would be for training classes and SHTF at worst.

I have been thinking of either a blue alpha gear double belt or a HSGI slim grip belt. They are slightly different styles I know.

All t would really hold is two pistol mags, a single rifle mag, IFAK, holster, and maybe a handheld light or multi tool.

So any advice from those that use a belt set up?

Hard to beat blue alpha gear

I agree. The only reason I’m considering the hsgi is that I can toss it on quickly over any clothes or belt. But I like how low profile the blue alpha belt is.

I use a TYR Tactical. I think they call it the gunfighter. It’s a slim profile belt with 2 rows of molle on it

Why not shoot them an email and let them know what you are looking for. Never know, they might have something in the works or an over run from a special project. Even if they dont, and they see inquiries about a certain product, they may make it down the road

I may do that. Is really like to try one of each. I suffer from having no ass so it’s difficult to find a belt that stay up with that much weight.

We sell @bluealphagear belts. The regular cheap one and the hybrid edc. Nothing more. If the edc cant keep your pants up with gear on.....your having some serious issues.

Both @urbanedc and I use the hybrid edc

I havetwo of their belts, an original I wear at work everyday and a hybrid I wear 99% of the time not at work. I love them. I have to keep them cinched up pretty tight for them to hold any weight other than a IWB holster. Having it tight enough to support the weight of all the things I want on it makes it too uncomfortable. I used to use a “duty” belt at work with keepers and it was much better at holding up weight without being uncomfortable.

I highly recommend the belts from Jones Tactical. 100% American-made materials, hand-sewed here in Georgia. Top drawer quality and Richard Jones is a stand-up guy. I've got several of his belts, pre-set up for different purposes; carbine courses, Guerrilla Sniper, etc.

Talking with him right now about designing a slightly different 2-point sling, as I haven't found one that I think is "perfect" for me. He's sending me a prototype right now.

Time to revive this as I just scored an hsgi battle belt for $20 at Bargain Hunt. It was labeled as a tool belt accessory or some dumb shit. Been thinking about one for a long while, just couldn't justify the cost...till now at least. I'll get a pic when I get home. Just need to pick up another Cobra buckle belt to strap it on with...I've become quite fond of the one I wear everyday.
