Looking for a good gun toting leather belt.
I want a black 1.5 leather gun belt. I like the ranger style but just a plain stitched one
Would be fine. I’d like to have hirsehide but not necessary. I’d also like to buy from someone who accepts PayPal as I have money sitting in there.

I have a couple Wilderness Tactical belts and like them fine. I need a good leather one.

Any suggestions? Ranger style or not?

Thanks in advance!

Did you look at this thread: https://sigforum.com/eve/forums...0601935/m/3230061522


I don’t know about paypal, but I know our own countryboy (www.rgrizzleleather.com) does beautiful work. The Beltman (www.thebeltman.net) also makes a nice belt. Additionally, while I haven’t yet sampled his wares, I have noticed that Armour Belts (https://armourbelts.com/) frequently gets rave reviews here.

Truly, one is spoiled for choice on fine leather at SIGforum.

Why don't you just transfer the money out to an account?

I have a belt from R. Grizzle. It's about 6 years old and it's excellent. I have heard good things about Beltman belts also. I went with the one I have becasue it matches the holsters I get from him.

Near the end of Compiled List of Gunleather, Gun Holster and Gunbelt Makers is a list of Gunbelt makers.

The Beltman and Armour Belts are both very popular here on SF.

I just picked up a "Next" belt. They make it in nylon or leather. Be sure the back of the buckle is marked "G" for use with their gunbelt.

Great product. Enables me to carry a 5 inch all steel 43 oz pistol in comlete comfort, IWB or OWB. Regards 18DAI

I've been carrying on the Magpul Tejas belt for a couple years now. I'm pretty happy with it.

And ANOTHER vote for The Beltman.
By far the nicest and most robust leather carry belt I’ve ever owned.

Thanks everyone. I am guessing no one is using a Ranger style belt? After looking at it more, it seems that placing a belt holster and mag holder on and off may be a problem with the Ranger style.

I have several Bigfoot Gunbelts. After my first one, I saw no reason to buy any other brand.

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

By Ranger belt, do you mean the:
  • nylon harness-like belts such as Wilderness' Original Instructor's Belt
  • leather Western style belt like the Texas Rangers used to wear

    If it's the first, I rarely ever wear it for CCW but I do wear it at the range. Got too fat for my Wilderness, but I surprisingly like the Uncle Mike's just as well.

    If it's the 2nd, it isn't my style but I suspect the Cowboy action shooters have a preference.

    As far as my EDC belts:
  • I have a leather Beltman from the original owner. 8+ years old and saw a ton of use its first 5 years. Has held up well and is a darn good belt.
  • In May 2016, I bought 2 Armour belts. A 1.25" wide belt I wear every day to work but have only carried a gun with it a few times. A 1.5" wide embossed belt that I wear on weekends and evening and it's my primary carry belt. Both are fantastic and slightly prefer over Beltman.
  • In 2017, I bought a pair of Lucchese full quill ostrich boots and decided I needed a belt to go with it. In May '17, I bought an Armour Belt with full quill ostrich inlays. I only wear once or twice a month but I really like it and get tons of compliments.
