Belt rec?

I highly recommend hanks belts. I have the "Gunner" and it significantly increased the comfort when using a galco super tuck. My dad has their belt that is one size thicker and it seems a bit overkill for a cc gun. Maybe if I were going to carry a full sized 1911 and a few extra mags and a other accessories the thicker belt would make sense. But for my purposes the gunner is perfect. In fact I liked it so much, I have a second one coming today in the mail (I hope) that has eagles stamped all the way around it.
This is the one I have https://www.hanksbelts.com/products/hanks-gunner-leather-gun-belt
This is what I would recommend for a 1911 plus mags - https://www.hanksbelts.com/collecti...ducts/hanks-extreme-belt-concealed-carry-belt

Thanks, this is more what I am looking for!
 
I wear a belt from A&G gun leather of Cumming, GA.
Al is an excellent guy to deal with.
I had him build my belt to my specs, and I had him make it longer than I needed to accommodate any future weight gain, but I also had him put some extra holes in it closer to the middle, for when I lose weight.
He has ready-made belts that ship the next day.
Prices are $80- $100, depending on what you want and how customized.
Mine's 1.5" wide, which is good for all jeans, all khaki pants and Docker's and casual pants, but very tight for some dress pants.
If you wear a lot of dress slacks, go with 1.25" width.
These belts are super-thick and strong, and make the gun (and extra mags, flashlight, knife, etc.) feel a lot lighter.

The pic is one I took of Al at the Georgia Carry. Org convention in Atlanta a couple of years ago.

I have the "extreme" version. It's extra thick. Just be sure to ad a few inches. As it's thickness make it a little tighter.
 
I was watching the video from hanksbelts and to me the gunner seems a little flimsy, just from what I could tell with it sitting on the table. Compare it to zachs who uses 2 pieces of leather. m
