Tips In Choosing Materials For Custom Gun Belt

By Barbara Graham


Guns are used by people to protect themselves or their properties against others who might want to inflict harm on them. Law enforcement and military personnel also use them for ensuring the safety and security of citizens within their jurisdiction. Other individuals are using them for their hobby or sports like hunting and target shooting.

Carrying them around should be done safely as these are dangerous things and they might blow up accidentally then hit someone or yourself even. That is why getting custom gun belt is important which can support the weight of your firearm and holster. This is worn usually by law enforcers though some civilians who own firearms legally wears them too.

When a belt of this kind is worn by police officers, they are not just using it for carrying their holster and the gun within. This includes ammunition, gloves, batteries, pencils, taser, radios, handcuff, flashlights, keys, pens, pepper spray and baton among other things. These items carried by them differs depending on the state, country or city being stationed in.

This belt might look similar with any other belts but significant differences are there between them that should be known when choosing one. Though regular ones that are very expensive with better quality can be considered usable by some gun owners. But they will still sag or twist which may reveal your firearm making it not suitable for carrying it in concealment.

The materials being used on them should be considered first in choosing one since this helps in determining its quality. Many people prefer those made from nylon though leather still remains the popular selection which can be longer lasting. Start by acquiring a leather with high grade and it is better even to have them in double layer, particular if full size handgun is carried.

Aside from the chosen material, the stitching holding them together is also important because it adds to its quality. Nylon thread is commonly used in regular belts though this is not a very durable and strong option as it might break under the stress in holstering and drawing the gun. Polyester thread which is military grade is preferred since it will not stretch and be affected by natural elements.

If you are finding companies that offer their services in creating custom belts, use the search engine on the internet. Remember to be specific on where you are located to have the results filtered and just show those operating near you. Doing this would exclude those located at other states, countries and cities.

You may also request from your friends, relatives and associates for recommendations, specially those who needed this before. Receiving recommendations from the people you trust will be an advantage as they would be telling you honestly their experience. Check some review sites as well to know the thoughts of other people regarding their service.

Inquire on the cost of their services which depends upon the materials chosen and if the layers are single or double. Ask them when will it be finished including if they would deliver it or should be picked up. Inquire if there are discounts for bulk purchases.
