Are they similar in quality and will I like both?

Rafter S is cheaper and comes and more exotic dead animals are available, but I am getting a Sparks holster and magpouch, so the holster feng shui will be there, but it costs twice as much.

Have Hellweg and Bianchi belts, but have a few Sparks holsters because they are the very best.

Belt is critical; buy best.
Can't go wrong with Sparks, ever.

I have owned Milt Sparks gear since I turned 18. Always great stuff.

I favor ordering the holster and belt at the same time. This allows Tony to match the holster to the belt so weebles don't wobble.

Oh, Skunk, get horse if available and always have them dye the gear black so you are tactical!:cool:

Hello Skunkabilly,

I have just received a Rafter S tan belt in the mail last week and am very pleased with it.

I wear my Milt Sparks Summer Special on it, does this mean I have to carry rocks in my back pocket ( obligatory vague Fung Shui reference ) :D

Good topic. I'm thinking real hard about a Sparks belt right now, myself. I'll be wearing kydex with it, however. I think I just might be done with the dead animal holsters. Never say never though, eh? ;)

Rafter S is a better, stronger gunbelt. I have both and there is really no comparison. I carry in a Sparks Versa-Max holster (black and, therefore, tactical) on a Rafter S gunbelt. No wobble.

I must admit this is the first I'm hearing about Rafter S. I'll give them a closer look.

FYI: I just ordered one of the Rafter S cowhide belts. Should be here in a couple weeks and I'll get a review up as soon as I can.
