$30 gun belt?

[Cocked & Locked]

My $30 Belt arrived today. Seems to be good! I like it! Looks great, thick and stiff. I went for the optional stitching...nice and consistent.

Also ordered an extra black buckle.

Brass looking one works for now.

I just ordered a regular natural tan one. $5 off, and free shipping! $25 shipped! I don't know how they can do that and stay in business.

I am looking forward to examining it in detail when it arrives.

The belt arrived in a timely manner, and I liked it so much I ordered another one right away, this time a stitched one in the same color (natural), and still the $5 off and free shipping. They measure exactly 1/4 inch thick, and seem to be tough as nails.

No steel insert needed for me; these are plenty stiff as-is.

Or...

Desantis makes a reinforced leather belt line called the Econo that offers a few options at ~$30. I've been using them for the last year or so to hold up my daily carry M629 Deluxe, so they work.

Buy 2 inches bigger than your waist.

I'm actually wearing a DeSantis Econo right now. Not bad! Only downside is I've beaten the hell out of the hole I use most often. Otherwise it handles daily carry with an AIWB G26.

For my next belt, I'm thinking about trying out one of the infinitely-adjustable ratcheting belts, possibly not even leather. One hole is way too lose, the next one up is a smidge tight on really hot, active days. I commonly wind up with the G-Lock logo imprinted in reverse on my skin.

I was recently looking for an everyday heavy work style belt and bought a belt made by Boston Leather at under that price point. Stitched, 3/16 thick, 1 1/2 wide. Made in the USA which is a big deal to me. I don't know if it would stand up to a full size 1911 like my Beltman belt. But I've been wearing it for a while, it's a really nice belt and it's holding up fine. Should last me quite awhile. Will definitely purchase another. Boston Leather 6582ST. Under $25 most places.

I ordered a $30 gun belt. 1.5", steel reinforced, with an extra black buckle, it came to about $40 delivered. I have been losing some weight lately (more to go....lots more....), and it was time for a new belt.

It took about a week to come in.

I like it. It's not a double-thick Simply Rugged, but it's also less than 1/2 the price of the SR.

I will absolutely order another, when the time comes.

I ordered a 2nd one...stitched black.

Still love my $30 belt. I can't wait until they start making ties.

I sure would not want a belt any thicker or stiffer than $30 belt.

Looks like what us ol timers used to call a 'Harness Leather' Belt.

.

Gosh, am I really that old?

I realize this is an old thread but, thought I'd mention that I just ordered one of the $30 gun belts and noticed that my paypal payment went to Daltech Enterprises which is the same company that makes Daltech holsters. Just an FYI.

I have yet to find a belt that did not have an internal stiffener of either kydex or steel that was worth bothering with for carrying a gun.

I wore Looper Kydex reinforced belts for years, but since they've been bought out, the rice increased and the quality decreased. I am currently wearing a Daltech Steel Core Bullbelt, and could not be happier.

Been using my $30 belt for a year and a half. Maybe they treat the leather with Viagra powder cause mine hasn't sagged at all.

 

[Cocked & Locked]

Still like mine. Bought one and then two more. Going to list one of them for sale soon only because I've lost some weight and it's too big now.

What size? PM me if it's 42 or 44. I might like to buy it.

I have have one with the steel liner, and after a year of hard use it has held up very well.

I used their belt for a year and was satisfied but upgraded to the metal core and that has made OWB carry a real pleasure.
