    Default Beltman Belt Review

    I said I would do review on my new Beltman Belt once it arrived. Here is my quick review.
    I ordered it on new years day. It shipped that next monday, and it arrived today.
    Service is TOP of the line.

    The belt is, as others have said, TOP of the line.
    I went with the 1.5 inch bulls hide.
    I have read countless times people saying "a gun belt is like night and day to a normal one". I allways just blew it off thinking they were trying to convince themselves of that due to the price they paid for it.

    No no no. It is true!

    Firstly. This pic is of my old Levi belt compared to the thickness of the Beltman.


    This is my Levi belt. All limp. . .

    THIS IS THE REASON, YOU NEED a gun belt. This photo here is the whole story.


    The fit, feel, and COMFORT are great. The look is classic. It can go with both suit pants and cargo shorts. If you are in the market for a belt, I would HIGHLY recommend the Beltman as of now.
    I will keep everyone posted as I wear this belt daily.

    Wow...it only took a week to get? Did you order a pre-made one? I got an email Monday that my belt shipped out. I ordered it right after Thanksgiving. I cant wait to get mine. My Beretta is starting to do a number on my cheap-o leather belt.

    That's the first thing I thought when I saw the pictures. Such a nice belt with that bargain bin holster.

    I just bought my first gun belt today too, it's simply amazing. I don't know how I lived without it. I'll never go back.

    it really is that important, I never understood until I bought my first one either.

    I have had a Beltman for over a year, I wear it every day. It has softened up some where it bends around the buckle, but it still holds sturdy and supports great. Its a damn good belt.

    Yes, it was a quickship belt.

    honest answer? because its a POS.

    the same difference you feel in getting a quality gun belt will be mirrored in getting a quality holster. One that wont shift on your belt, wont snap off in a struggle, or pull right out of your pants.

    what model GLOCK are you carrying ?

    Shawn pointed me towards the Beltman, and I haven't regretted my purchase. It makes a huge difference, along with a quality holster.

    I have some cheap Fobus paddle holsters for at the range. While they're fine for range work, oddly enough they don't seem to work well with my quality gun belt. The paddle has an indentation that works with the belt to provide stability and retention. While it fits into place nicely with a cheaper belt, it doesn't quite seem to work with my much thicker Beltman belt.

    I carry IWB when not at the range, though. The Fobus lives in my range case.

    As i was in the process of buying my holster, the holster guy warned me that the bullhide belts would end up looking not so pretty after a while. he recommended that i upgrade to the horsehide. I ended up buying a 1-3/4 inch horsehide belt and i really like it.
