Airframe Mech Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I have a 2" belt and I cant find any mag. pouches that are 2". So I guess I need a new 1 1/2" belt any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishin6061 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Shooting specific belts such as the CR Speed or Double Alpha are certainly worth the money. These belts use an inner belt that goes through your belt loops and a very rigid outer belt that velcros on top. The CR Speed is what the majority of us use. If you go the CR Speed route, be sure to add a 4 inches to your waist size when ordering. I do not have any experience with the Double Alpha belt, but understand that the inner belt is thinner and the outer belt is thicker. Hope this helps.

I see the CR 2001 in the Brownells catalog, is that the one you are talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Order a CR speed from Shooters Connection. Thats where we all shop for our stuff! Register with them as a BE member and you get special pricing. You will probably have the belt two days after you order too. They can't be beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe4d Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 bladetech pouches work, I use a 2.25" duty style belt and really like the extra stability. I use Blade tech Teck loks on CR pouches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Smith Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I have a 2" belt and I cant find any mag. pouches that are 2". So I guess I need a new 1 1/2" belt any recommendations? If you want to stick with that belt, the Blade-Tec Tec-Lock will work with it. Also, check with Chris at CPWSA on the Ready Tactical pouches - I think he can get them in 2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangucci Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 I recently decided to make my own belt because I wanted one that's thinner than the other ones on the market. Before that I was using a Bianchi inner and outer setup. The inner belt was a bit on the small side and I wound up just adding a strip of velcro to keep it closed long enough to get the outer belt on.

Jesse Tischauser Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=85350&view=findpost&p=983848 I wish I would have known about this when I ordered in the past! I like the CR Speed inner belt with a Double alpha outer belt. The DA outer is super stiff but the inner is too thin. 1-2 sizes larger gives a good overlap. The wilderness tactical instructor belt is nice too if you don't want the quick detach when you get it hung on a barricade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangucci or anyone else that might know, I'm Looking at buying a Bianchi inner and outer belt (I received a gift card on Amazon and CR Speed and Double Alpha products aren't available there). I was wondering what width and thickness of belt the CR Speed Versa Mag Pouches will accept. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
