Have both their CSM & 5-Stitch.........Hated them at 1st. but have come to appreciate them for what they are.
Along with most of the prev. mentioned pluses, the speed of & micro adjustment make them worthwhile for on the street and IDPA. Back problems force wearing any belt fairly loose in a car or while waiting to shoot at a match. It's almost a one-handed adj, to tighten it up when it's your time to shoot a stage.
On the other hand they really need to offer an aluminum non-tactical appearing buckle, w/o the 'biner loop, to shed some of the weight. Most aren't likely to be rapping off a roof to smash thru a window 10 stories up with their MP-5, I'd guess?
