Belts, belts, belts!

Post by Texas Jones »

I found this site with web belts for under $3.25 ea, and a seemingly perfect gunbelt for $8.95. The site is:

Here's the pics:

Gunbelt:

I ordered both the brown web belt with brass buckle and the gunbelt. I will let you know about them when I receive them.

Seems too good to be true, eh?

By the way...

It seems this is a TOD belt, since it has a leather slot instead of the Raiders metal one.

Cool! Another Texas Guy.

We have GOT to have another Texas summit. I don't care if it's hot.

Anyway,

Is that the Wal-Mart buckle? I really like their buckles.

I put both on the belt just like I have seen in photos.

You need the metal one to be stationary and the leather one to be free to adjust depending on belt. The leather one takes the place of the beltloops to keep the flap from flying around.

This one looks a lot like the TOD belt.

The thing that's good it that these are the big men's size. (They also have them in regular sizes.) What size should you get above your waist size for a nice hang on the belt?

I'd measure your hips and your waist and go for a size in between those.

Very nice indeed! Would you like to double order and split the shipping cost?
In case you haven't done it yet, of course. Then I'll just do it myself.
:wink: I should probably fix myself a brown webbing belt too anyways...

Most makers of gun belts suggest that you order a belt four or five inches longer than your normal pants belt size.
