Initially the 39 was carried in a flapped crossdraw with an extra mag pouch sewed on the back of the flap. Belt was a plain black shiny leather and then clarino. No Sam Browne. Belt went thru the pants belt loops.
Then went to a strong side thumb break on the same style belt. Off side was a flapped handcuffed case and baton ring. No extra mag case was issued. You could buy your own mag pouch to match the belt/holster. Then a single mag pouch was issued.
Later went with a plain clarino gun belt, velcro to an inner belt, holster strong side. Fill out the rest of the belt with double mag pouch, handcuff case, expandable baton, radio, and whatever else you had room for that you wanted to buy like 2nd cuffs, rubber gloves case, baton/flashlight ring.
We never issued basketweave. Always plain smooth.
