Those ones have only been used for manscaping

Might I suggest upgrading to the Manscape Lawnmower 2.0?

It really excels around the bits.

Use #Crowder for 20% off.

The only reason I manscape is for the thrill

Fighting/training belt:

Gloves, esstac kywi, micro trauma kit, micro dump pouch, holster and knife with retention.

Bump in the night belt:

Same basic setup but geared more towards an “oh **** I’m naked but I might be in a gunfight.” Some of ya’ll might see it as excessive, but living in Atlanta and hearing the after action of multiple people who have been the victims of home invasions, I think it’s appropriate.

This belt has a padded insert so I can throw it on in the birthday suit. I tried to keep it as close to my training belt as possible so muscle memory is still there, but I replaced the second pistol mag with a handheld light, and ditched the drop leg. It’s also sized a bit different to compensate for no pants the knife is a place holder as I much prefer something up front I can access with both hands. I’ll probably replace it with another Tourniquet and a GP pouch for my cell phone soon.

And just for good measure… EDC belt:

I need a new belt, but I like a leather belt. I forget the brand but it’s a sturdy leather gun belt I’ve had for years. Basic IWB holster, extra mag, and a knife I can easily access with either hand. This is as much as I like to carry on my normal belt to avoid looking like Batman.

Davis Leather Holsters makes a great belt!

The rig is modular. The only thing that stays the same from use to use is the belt (inner and outer), the Safariland holster platform and the Rolly Polly. Everything else easily removes and attaches. The holsters snap into a plate on the rig.......they're the easiest part of the entire system to switch out.

I’m using a Spiritus carrier with Hesco L210-SH-SC-L plates in it. If I need more than 3 Carbine mags (1 in the weapon, 2 on the belt), I have a carrier that fastens to the front of my carrier and holds an additional 3 magazines.

1a: Jones Tactical outer belt, with Cobra buckle

1b: Jones Tactical inner belt

2: Maxpedition Rolly Polly, large. I tried the medium, but found it sometimes difficult to get a mag in there while shootin' n' scootin'. Also, as an Instructor, I'm always sticking stuff in there like PACT timers, courses of fire and other gear.

3: Safariland 6004-25 holster platform using the QLS (Quick Locking System) plate. This allows just about any Safariland holster to be mounted to this rig. I've always hated "drop leg" holsters, but this one drops just far enough to get below vests and/or armor, but it's still mounted on the hip, not the leg. Super stable and secure, yet very quick.

4a: Safariland 6377 holster with QLS attachment, Beretta 92

4b: Safariland 6377 holster with QLS attachment, SIG P229

4c: Safariland 6377 holster with QLS attachment, Gov't model 1911

*old pic, I’m no longer running the SIG or Beretta. Now it’s a Gen5 G34 with Surefire X300U.

5: Safariland kydex Teklok pouches, AR15

6: Blade Tech Teklok pouches, AK

7: Ready Tactical kydex mag pouches, Beretta 92

8: Talon Tactical kydex mag pouches, 1911

9: Ready Tactical kydex mag pouches, SIG P229

10: California Competition works shotshell caddy

11: Safariland SxS shotshell holder. I usually put shotshells in the California CompWorks caddies and slugs in the SxS's.

Anyone have a product they like for converting molle pouches/etc to belt mounted? Similar to say Sagewood gear clips? Hell I guess Velcro strips could work as good as anything else?

I reckon those would work. I’d prefer them over a clip anyway. Thanks brother!
