Gun Belt and Weight Loss

Post by Raider Of The Lost Ark »

I've seen most of the gun belts here have the whip holder attached to them. My concern is that if, as I plan to do, I loose weight the whip holder will be mooved round to the 'wrong' place, and look weird. Obviously it will look wrong if I gain weight too, however if I do that the belt won't fit me anyway so that will be the least of my problems.....

What is the best way to go in this regard?

Oh and when I do loose the weight, if any of you find it please DON'T return it to me :lol:

I think the gunbelt was designed to be a loose fit so many generally size up by 1 pant size. If you get the gunbelt in your true fit then lose weight, I think you would be good to go.

If you gain it right back at least you still have that extra sizing to play with.

I would be happy if my belt would hang lower due to any weight loss.

Browncoat, that bug is really anoying in a fun way. :)

Neither my Noel Howard holder or my Todd's holder are attached to the belt, but slide freely, and I chose them for this reason. I would hate to have it attached since I sometimes put the whip in back or in front or right on the side.

Maybe you should get a second belt, or replace your holder to be unattached.

I had my belt for a few years, before I finally went ahead and had the whip holder attached. It used to bug me to have the whip holder loose, but since I didn't wear the belt with all the gear that often... it wasn't a big deal.
