Brownells now sell this equipment. I looks like a good deal of thought went into the design. I ordered a 2 3/8" belt for use with a new leather holster for my Mod 25 6 1/2", but it is not a Levitation holster.
Anyone have experience with this belt?
Anyone try to mount non-Levitation holster?
The 012 holster is now available with Levitation mount. I'm thinking of purchasing a second outer belt to use with my Valtro. Is there any downside to using such a wide belt for competition?

Some pretty big names use those belts for competition but I never used them. I think Safariland now has Levitation adaptors to put older stuff on their new belts.
Did you get the carbon fiber one?

I purchased the carbon fiber outer belt (6cm) and the inner 1 1/2" belt. I was going to use this belt with a new leather duty holster from another company, but was thinking of a duplicate setup for 1911, with the 012 Levitation holster and either the 5773, or 5771 mag pouches from Safariland. These are the Levitation versions of the 773 and 771. I need to post asking if anyone has tried both of these. Heck, how should I know which one to get?
I don't know, but it looks like it clears the top of the 773 quicker, so maybe you save a splitsecond when you change mags?? :confused:
