Thoughts on a good carry belt
I'm currently looking for a good belt to carry my pistol with. I have ruined several different leather belts over the past two years I have carried concealed. I need something that won't break down on me and something that dosent cost much more than 80.00 bucks or so. I have heard some good things about Ligers carry belt, any thoughts?

Wilderness Tactical Products makes a great belt if a dress belt is not
required.

Find a local police/paramedic uniform store. They sell nice thick belts in the 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 widths. I got my last one for 20 dollars and its as good as any gun belt from a high priced leather dealer...Shoe repair shop sometimes sell good cheaper belts also.

Try Rafter S Gunleather: http://www.raftersgunleather.com/Belts.htm. Good, solid belts for less than $50. Kinda hard to argue with that.

RafterS Gunleather if you want leather.
Wilderness Exp. if you want nylon. Both are great. I have both. |

I second DonR101395's recommendation. One tough belt. Five years now and no sagging, very little set at the buckle.

I'd look at the Tucker Gunleather bullhide belts if I were you.
They go from $60 to $80, depending on width. I've been wearing one for over a year and it shows no signs whatsoever of breaking down or sagging. Walter http://www.tuckergunleather.com/ |
