Belts For More Than Holding Up Your Pants
By Adelia Ladson
When you have a battle belt or tactical belt as a part of your gear, whether it's for hunting and shooting or camping and surviving, it will pull everything together - literally. It expands your capacity to carry essential gear with you and have it within quick and easy reach.
M48 OPS Battle Belts
M48 OPS, has made a name in the tactical gear industry, using only the top-graded materials to craft its products. So, you can count on their tactical belts to hold-up to years of use. Here are some models that are well-suited for any use and any environment.
Quick Release Rigger's Belt
The Quick Release Rigger's Belt is a tactical belt but it's also well-suited for casual, everyday wear. It's constructed of heavy-duty 1000D nylon webbing that's 1 1/2" wide and it adjusts from size 36" up to 44". The belt's load-bearing buckle allows for the carry of tools, equipment or your holster without coming undone. The quick-release metal buckle makes it easy to remove.
Faux Leather Duty Gear Belt
Perfect for law enforcement or security guards, the Faux Leather Duty Gear Belt looks professional with its basket-weave texture. The faux leather construction is tough and durable, giving you a sturdy platform to carry your duty gear. It's 2 1/4" wide and has a padded liner so that it's comfortable for daily wear. It also features a quick-release buckle.
Nylon Duty Gear Belt
The Nylon Duty Gear Belt is the same style as the above law enforcement and security guard belt. The only difference is that it's constructed of poly-webbing, giving it a more tactical look. It's just as tough and durable, allowing you to carry all of your duty tools including your holster.
Tactical Gear Belts
Military-style battle belts are the top contender when it comes to carrying gear. I really like the M48 Tactical Gear Belts, which come in three colors: olive drab, black and tan. The heavy-duty nylon webbing construction has evenly spaced, double rows of metal grommets from end-to-end. The belts also feature four sliding metal brackets to also attach gear to. ABS quick-release buckles complete the package. Each belt is 2 1/4" wide and 40 1/2" in overall length, which can be adjusted.
