Review: A Gun Belt Comparison

[theweakerbrother]

I just picked up my Super BioBelt.

WOW...

I took off my dress belt and put this thing on. It is a beast. I will wear it later with a holster. Pics and FULL review to come after a few days of wearing it. Big thanks to Alex at BullBelt for the demo to wear and tear on. I am rough on gear so this will be great to test out.

I am waiting on FedEx for my BioBelt. Can't wait!

Thanks much for a wonderfully thorough review. Images are outstanding, always helpful.

FYI

Cabela's in Hammond only has one brown duty belt size 36 left in the store for 19.99 as of last night 08/27/2012. HOWEVER, via the website you can get sizes 38 and up in black or brown for 17.99. The (online price) will NOT be matched in the store.

Belt arrived yesterday and I wore it on an evening fishing trip. Its very interesting and I'm looking forward to thoroughly reviewing it.

When I get my Jones Tactical Cobra Belt I wouldn't mind letting you try it out and trow up a review if you want. I still have about... probably still ten weeks out on that one though...

Just picked up my cabela's gun belt size 38 and changed belts in the store and wow... wow... what a world of a difference! Never had a gun belt before and my other belts i could always feel the weight of the gun + magazines. With this belt i dont feel that extra weight on my sides. And its thick and does not bend as easy as my old ones.

Thanks all for the tip best $0.00 i have ever spent!*

* i used my cabela's points to get the belt + free shipping to the store.

That is the MOST COMMON response that I hear from people who switch over to a REAL gun belt.

The SECOND MOST COMMON response that I hear, usually after the person has been wearing the new gun belt for a week or two, is that, even with a heavy gun, the person is not tired/uncomfortable from the gun's weight at the end of the day.

I take back my comments then since I don't like it when that redneck brother of my is right.

Bull Hide 2 layers. Made by an AMISH fellow in Shipshewana

I will be getting the double layer bull belt the end of next week along with their belt slide holster. I will be posting a written review and a video review.

For whatever it is worth, I have been wearing a Cabela's Double Duty, several days a week, every week, for the past 2 years. Its still holding up very well. I think your Double Duty will surprise you. Its more durable than you think. Not saying its as good as a Galco or a Beltman, but for $20 its a true bargain.

After this review I bought the Cabela's double duty belt. Funds are restricted, so I thought I would start on the economic end for now. I have had it for 2 weeks and it rocks! I would agree that for the money, it's the best bargain out there.

Don't agree with melensdad his head is already big enough it may explode. I took my belt on a 12 hr road trip and it has been very comfortable so far. No side/back issues while carrying. Y no one ever told me tp get a gun belt before is beyond me. I blame melensdad for that. Lol

I'm interested in learning more about the SuperBIO Belt.. I currently wear (and have since Feb 2009) a Liger belt. Photobucket seems to be down or I'd post a pic - anyhow, it's held up to everything I've thrown at it - it even held up after a little battery acid got ahold of it (destroying my Woolrich Elite pants in the meantime, but that's another story) and the only complaint I have is that I didn't really understand that it wouldn't slide - I ripped a belt loop off a pair of jeans trying to slide the excess fabric towards the back when I wasn't carrying IWB one day..

Why are you blaming others for your not reading and listening when folks have said time and time again on here to get a GUNBELT??

Are you one of those sheeple that run around with blinders on all the time? Lmao!!

 

[melensdad]

Why are you blaming others for your not reading and listening when folks have . . . .

Sounds like a LIBERAL to me.

Blame everyone else for his troubles because he won't take responsibility for his own actions/inactions. If only the government would hand out gun belts equally so that even the gangsta's north of Rt 30 could hold their pants up.

FINALLY Photobucket!

I need to do an updated EDC pic, I see, but in the meantime.. a rolled up liger belt!

Seriously, it's been through the ringer. It has fallen into the pool a few times, a couple local lakes and rivers, even once in the ocean! It has some rub marks but nothing that you wouldn't expect on a belt that's had this much wear.

 

[Bubbajms]

Hahahaha, just kidding.. in the words of the Blues Brothers "Whadyyall want for nothin? Rubber Biscuit?"

Stupid photobucket.. anyhow, it'll show up sooner or later, I'm sure. In the meantime, I'm working on getting the go-ahead for one of the SuperBIO Belts.. I don't have a good Black belt and sometimes I'm told that I don't color-coordinate.. :huh:

A few INGOers and I were lucky enough to receive ours last week. I've always been interested in a biothane belt (like your Liger) and this one is certainly interesting. Initial impressions are quite positive.

I'll have a full report up once I get more time with it.
