Competition/duty belt options need help
So I currently have a bladetech belt that had a Velcro inner that attaches to a heavy duty outer that also Velcro’s around itself. I like the idea of the Velcro inner but would much rather have a buckle style outer that will attach to the inner via Velcro. I’ve seen them without Velcro and 4 buckle snaps to attach it to the inner but it doesn’t seem to stop it from moving around. Does anyone know of any brands or belts that are similar to what I’m looking for. Or maybe another option I haven’t thought of yet is also welcome

I believe the 4 buckle snaps you are referring to, are what we call Belt Keepers on a Police Duty Belt. I wore a leather basket weave Bianchi gun belt from 1974 until I retired. I did have 2 different ones, the first one I got when I was 23 shrunk on me.
When shooting IPSC back in the late 1970's I wore a Bianchi River Belt in Brown Basket Weave with Belt Keepers. It had a Brass Buckle. I believe that I have seen belt keepers for nylon gun belts. Bob R |

On duty, I use a Safariland 87V leather duty belt, with a safariland velcro inner belt. The 87V has a metal buckle in the front and is extremely sturdy. I use Safariland keepers along with the velcro, and that thing doesn't go anywhere.

Hi all,
A friend of mine turned me on to a gun belt a year ago, It was the KORE Essentials Gun Belt. Their website states: "The best-fitting, most comfortable, concealed carry gun belt you'll ever own." And it's true! Link: https://www.koreessentials.com/collections/gun-belts I love this belt! I would own it even if I forever stopped carrying. It is referred to as a "Trakline" belt and I really love the locking notches, I can pull it up a notch or after a big meal easily let it out a couple LOL! How it works... https://www.koreessentials.com/pages/how-it-works I Don't know if this belt will work as your duty belt or not. Mackie244 / Bud |
