Contoured Gun Belts

[Guest tngambler]

How many of you have tried a contoured gun belt.Seems it would be more comfortable particularly so when the belt has a reinforcement liner.Heavy stiff belts i have tried cut into my sides untill broken in and with the liner i dont think it would ever conform to my sides,and i want it comfortable from the start. I need a leather gun belt but cannot decide on the maker. I found a belt that has almost all options available,Contoured,Kydex reiforcement liner,Tapered from 1.5" to 1.25" or 1". No exotic leather or .75" hole spacing. The price is really good for those features, $75. Sounds like a great deal compared to most with those options. Its made by Comp-Tac. anyone tried their belts?

I like the beltman.

[Guest tngambler]

how many others have you tried? any reason you like The Beltman?

Well made, and I've found they contour to my shape pretty quickly. Like all good gunbelts they are stiff.

You would really like the gun belts from Leather Holsters for Springfield XD, Glock, 1911, M&P, Beretta, Ruger, Sig, Taurus, Kahr, then. They conform so easy to your body & work really well.

I've got a Galco I really like.

I would love a horsehide belt from the beltman or from Kramer to match my holster... I bought a cheapo made in not-america leather belt at TSC because I needed a better belt asap and it's working for now... but it's starting to roll at the back belt loop and I don't know how long it's going to hold out. And it cuts into my sides. I wonder how the contoured belts work for the ladies...

All I know is I've been carrying for a couple of months now and one can go out & spend lots on a holster, but it isn't worth a damn without a proper belt.

For what it is worth,

I have had 7 gun belts in the last 10 years, Beltman, Don Hume, Galco,De Santis and a few others, I recently got a Milt Sparks and I can honestly say it is above the rest that I have had, I may never use another manufacturers Gun belt, I waited several months but it was worth the wait. I have sold all of my other belts. This one is made of Shark skin and by using the measuring method on their website, it fits me perfectly, I could not be more pleased I have already ordered a cowhide belt and am thinking of getting a 3rd

I recently picked up a CompTac leather contour belt and it is great. I am adding a Milt Sparks soon to go with my VMII.
