Belt question
Hey guys. Any heavy duty belts that will support my 5906 in a holster when worn with jeans. My belt sags way to much.

have 3 belts from the beltman. Quality, prices, choices and turnaround time are topnotch.

Thanks for that link.
Are his 1 1/2" belts stiff enough to hold our favorite all-steel 3rd gens without the stiffener?

I have been carrying an Officers ACP roughly 5 days a week since mid 2008. I got my belman 1.5 no stiffner last year and have not found the need for the extra piece. I carried in an owb el paso saddlery tortilla.
A few years back...I tried and aker with the plastic stiffner.... found that belt to dig into me on the poly side when I tighten one extra hole when on the street (reg street clothes).
I have switched to a lwt dw cco and I don't even feel it after 8hrs.

You don't need the stiffener. It will hold that 5906 perfectly without it.

For my gunbelt I got a belt blank made from harness leather and cut it to length and dyed it black. I have all of $20.00 in it with tax, nit counting the buckle. It has never let me down. Got it at Tandy Leather.

If you can fold your belt in half vertically it is not sturdy enough. I am using a Carhartt work belt that cost me $20.00 or so and it does a great job with the heaviest of loads.

I get mine from Dillon Precision. They come in black or brown, 1-1/4" or 1-1/2" wide, and various lengths. They are thick and sturdy. Been using them over 10 years and have had no problems.

I use a Crossbreed 1 1/2" in brown and a Filson double belt in black. Both work great and the Filson could probably hold up two 5906's.
