THIRTY DOLLAR BELT REPORT

crazyphil · Nov 21, 2017

I have worn the THIRTY DOLLAR BELT a few times over the past
couple of weeks. It's the 1 & 1/4" size because the Chic Gaylord
Combat Speed Scabbard's belt loop is 1 & 1/4".

Been carrying the S&W Model 29, 4" barrel, loaded with 6 Buffalo
Bore .44 Magnum 255-Gr. Keith low recoil cartridges. I weigh
exactly 3 pounds more with the rig on than I do with it off, on
my digital bathroom scale. (Don't know how scientific that is).

I wear it at about 4 O'Clock (Like John Wayne). It has carried
the weight well. Straight up, no sagging. Think I'll keep it.

Based on your experience, I just ordered a 1 1/2" one.

Thanks crazyphil for the time, effort and reporting the results on your belt.

Hope you like it. It's a pretty good belt for the money.

I've been wearing my $30.00 1 1/2 belt for a few weeks now.
I've only been carrying my 642 pro in a Desantis speed scabbard at 4;00 and a 2X6 ammo slide at 10;00 so far I love the belt. Oh I forgot sometime I carry my Ruger LW Commander and 2 spare mags.

I have been looking for a new gun belt. If it holds a 4" 29, my 1911 will be fine.
Just ordered mine.

But you got 2 for less than you would pay for one of those
other kinds. You think like I do. Can't wear a brown holster
on a black belt and vice-versa.

I have two 1 1/2 inch wide and love em. Carry a 3in mod 65, 442,60, and a 6906, and a glock 19. No sag. Best $60.00 I ever spent.

I ordered the black creased job about 3 weeks ago;... like the way it looked hanging on my door knob so well, I ordered the brown and natural ones last night. And you say you can carry a gun holster on one too ?!?

Those 401K "R M Ds' (by Dec. 30th ) allow you to spend money like the renowned drunken sailor.

Update on belt order

WOW. what great service from the folks at $30 Dollar Gun Belt.

I ordered on 11/21/17 and it came today, 11/24/17.
I got the 1 1/2 brown creased with screws for buckle changes if I feel like it.
It looks great and fits just right in my holster belt slots.

I may order black and natural belts in the next couple of months,
after I carry test this one for a while.

I'm a leatherworker and I can't make and sell a quality belt for that price. It's got to have at least $15 in leather alone in it.

rog8732 · Nov 25, 2017

As I posted earlier on this thread, I ordered two more of these belts, brown and "natural"; to go along with my black,... now received.

I will point out an incorrect perception I made, concerning the one noted on the Thirty dollar web-site as "natural".
I assumed "natural" to be TAN; but actually "finished" in the color tan.

Not the case at all. The "natural" designation means a true, natural un-finished belt, with holes, buckle, and keeper. The backside is still "nappy" as are the edges, and not friction "boned" at all.

Not really a detriment to me, as I will use Blackrock or some other leather balm to give mine a more finished appearance; and in fact, for some of the leather wranglers here, it will be perfect to dye the color of choice, or, can, since it's un-finished, still be wetted and carved as desired.
For instance, I recall seeing a blue leather holster here not long back, (perhaps snubbyfan's ?) and no end to fancy colored cowboy boots anymore.

Final note. The brown belt is the color many holster makers also use, and referred to as "Havana Brown".
And,...as a FINAL-final note for our cat loving members here, "Havana Brown" is also one of the more distinct and seldom seen feline colors.

Where did you find the 1 1/4" belt listed? I have been all over their web site several times and cannot find any reference to anything but 1 1/2". Did you buy direct from them, or from E-Bay?
