Gear review: Kore Black Leather Gun Belt.
It has been a while since I made a post about gear, mostly because I don’t get gear sent for review. (I ain’t tactical enough?)
Since I lost so much weight, my The Wilderness tactical belts which were the only belts I used, were rendered obsolete. They are worn but still in great shape, but they no longer fit me nor carry the gun safely because they just simply drop from my waist. So I went looking for another belt and possibly in non-tactical look, just a nice leather belt stiff enough to carry concealed safely.
After checking around online, I bought the Kore Black Leather Gun Belt. It has a ratchet system rather than holes or the velcro patches to secure and I have to say I am impressed: It is comfortable to wear and it does keep the holster nice and tight against your body. I like the ratchet system as I can adjust it tighter or looser by fractions of an inch. The belt itself looks great: a conservative black look with a buckle that looks good but it is not flashy.
Here is the video from the manufacturer:
The regular belt covers pant sizes from 22 to 44 and then they have the 44 to 54 size so that should cover most everybody. Only one recommendation: Practice unlocking the belt a lot. It is not hard, but it is a totally new skill set that your hands need to learn and having an urgent need to partake seating at the porcelain throne is not the moment to develop those skills.
Final thought? I am happy with the belt. I will se myself buying another in the future.
