I was surprised to see this quality. The holster and pouches fit snug and stay where you put them. ***Size chart was accurate. *** Buying this stuff sight-unseen can be a little scary, because you are relying on the written description and trusting that it will be correct. This one was a good purchase. I dont have a lot of gear to compare it to to be able to say which is best or better but this gear is sturdy, well made, functions as intended. I would say if you have a custom pistol or modifications to your pistol to reach out to the manufacturer for a holster made for your pistol. I got their basic race holster, I was surprised at the quality for the price I paid. Read more
I am not sure what the reviews on quality are about, but I got a great belt. Stiffer and more solid than my buddies buying other belts that were higher priced. In fact they ended up seeing mine and coming back to by this one. Just buy this belt and you can check this one off your list. After a year of hard use and about 20k rounds practicing and shooting matches, I will say that this belt certainly held up to my expectations. This is a semi-durable item and with as hard as it was used in the Production division of USPSA it was and still is a decent belt. I ended moving to the double alpha belt because it is even stiffer and I switched to Open which requires something that can deal with the heavier pistol I am using. Obviously this one softens up after hard use. Depending on how you are using it or planning to be involved in competitive shooting it might be the right belt, it certainly remains usable and the price is pretty outstanding. Read more
The two piece design of inner and outer belts makes it super easy to transition between ready for competition and down time. Well made, very thick/strong material. Bought this for my son who is starting to compete in 2Gun. Works extremely well with BSG holster. Heavy 48 pistol rides well with this belt. I would buy again. I would like to see more color options.

I have more than a few competition shooting belts. Most are CR Speed belts. I needed another one because it is much easier to have a few rigs set up instead of changing your set up to shoot different handguns or classes. I saw this one and the price was much better than I expected. I assumed it would be of inferior quality because most times you get what you pay for. I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. The inner belt is much stiffer than all of my CR Speed belts. the outer belt is of the same quality and workmanship. And I saved $20. Gotta love that. I set up this new belt with my Limited 10 holster and mag pouches. It works great. So good in fact that I am ordering a second one to build a Single Stack rig. There is only one slight problem with this belt, when they coiled it for shipment it was rolled up the wrong way, so when I put on the belt it tried to curl off. So I rolled it up snugly the proper way and left it like that for a few days and it is much better now. Read more
The media could not be loaded. I needed a belt for USPSA and other action pistol competitions because the holster and mag pouches I had where not suitable for speed. I was skeptical about this belt because I did not nee other competitors around me wearing a Black Scorpion belt and I saw in some cases the velcro not working good and they would have to use a couple of tie wraps to keep the belt from coming undone. So reading other good reviews on Amazon, I figured I will give this belt a try and also get the Black Scorpion mag pouches for it ( Black Scorpion Outdoor Gear Storm Magazine Pouch,Black MP01-1111-01BK ). A few days ago I used this belt for defensive/practical shooting and I forgot to take with me the velcro "buckle" that comes with it. I put on the inner belt at home and drove about 60 miles with it and when I got there the inner belt stayed together exactly as I put it on so I was happy about that. Then I put on the outer belt and placed 6 loaded mags and the pistol on it and had that on for about 6 hours while some stages required running toward the next set of targets and I did not feel at any point that the belt(s) were coming undone or getting loose. I am very happy with it and I also recommend you get 4 or 5 Black Scorpion mag pouches too. Read more
Just as a disclaimer, this is the first competition belt I have bought. I was going back and forth between this belt and more expensive ones, and I'm very happy with my purchase. It is stiff, and doesn't pull your pants down when loaded with weight. As far as sizing goes, I am a 32 in waiste. Measuring over my jeans, I am about a 33/34. I went with the large size belt, and it fits perfect. The only drawback I have, which is why I didn't give it 5 stars, is its width. It is advertised as a 1.5" width belt, but it is slightly wider, and my safariland 1.5" mag pouches wouldn't fit it. Read more
Great belt. Stiff and sturdy construction. Wont go wrong with this one for the price you're paying Read more
Works as well as a Safarland belt only this is affordable. Didn’t need the cloth cover, added a ratcheting belt system for a more precise fit. Read more
