Month long review of Beltman belt
I put in my order for a Beltman brown belt with the 7 hole option and the internal stiffener.
Almost a month to the day later it arrived and looked great.
After about a month of using it, it's now my daily casual belt. I use it when I'm carrying and when I'm not.
My current rigs are a Crossbreed Supertuck for HK USPc and G27, so there isn't a lot of strain on the belt itself. I notice a little difference from my regular 1.60" wide normal belt, but frankly not much. I imagine if I carried an all metal pistol, OWB or both, there would be a noticable difference.
All in all, it was well worth the $80 I paid for the belt. I would have paid roughly $50 for a quality belt at a department store anyway, and it's nice to support a small operation that's geared toward the gun owners.
If I had to do it over again, I don't think I'd get the internal stiffener. I just don't need it with the rigs I'm using, and it makes the belt a little tough to put on. I'm sure it will loosen up a bit as it gets worn in and older, but frankly, the quality of this belt is such that I don't think it will get THAT much looser.
I would recommend this belt to anyone who is looking for a good belt, especially if they are looking to carry 24/7 with it. I would also recommend definitely the 7 hole option and would pass on the stiffener.
