heckofagator Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 As you can tell, I'm very new to this..... So I got a new CR Speed belt and mag holsters. With the belt there are 2 separate pieces. Does the inner one go thru your belt loops and is there where all of the equipment attaches? Then does the outer belt go over all of that, outside of the belt loops? With the mag pouches, I've removed the plastic piece and put in the "shim" labeled CZ, yet the space is way too small for my SP01 Shadow mags. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks guys.

sauza45 Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 The inner belt goes on your pants. Put all you gear on the outer belt and then put the otter belt on your inner belt that run throught your pants belt loops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corey Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Mag pouch loacation is a very personal preference. Depending on your division, there are some restrictions about where you can/cannot have your mag pouches located. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckofagator Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 But how to I get the mags in the pouches in the first place? With the insert one way, its way too tight, but with it flipped 180 degrees, its way too loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro-Pain Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 If you can't find a happy medium with the mag pouches, put the side so that it's a little "looser," and then add your own shim. I use the soft (loop) side of velcro to add a little weight, but still be smooth that the mag doesn't hang up at all when I draw it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Another trick I use. Put velcro on the back of your pouches and holster so they stick to the inner belt as well. This takes alot of movement out of the belt due to not enough velcro holding them together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Dont forget about the tensions adjustment knobs. Put your shims in so they are a little loose, then tighten the adjustment knobs as you see fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gixxerjunky Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 There is a shim for the CZ/92 beretta I think. Put the one for the double stack 9mm in and then use the tension shims. I run my mag holders right behind my left hip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gixxerjunky Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Tension screws. I also put Velcro on the back of the mag holders so they secure to the belt more. When I wear 5 holders it gets heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZinSC Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 First off, +1 on what others said about how to use belt. Inner belt through pant loops, outer belt with gear on it attaches to the velcro inner belt. I just recently added a CR speed mag pouch to my belt, and I shoot the CZ SP01. The mags are the same. It took some fiddling to figure it out, and I really can't tell you in words what I did, so here are the pictures. I didn't use velcro because i'm just using it for my make ready mag, so after the start, there is nothing in there. But velcro would have definitely tightened it up more. I use that for my speedsec pouches. If you have questions, feel free to PM me, or post in here. ( more comments after the pictures ) Also, if you're running production, ie: 4 mag pouches, you may want to use the velcro strips on the inside portion of the mag pouches. (you can barely make out the velcro I'm referring to in the second picture) Otherwise, where the mag pouches are on the outer belt, there will be no velcro holding them to the inner belt. With four pouches in close proximity, it makes that side sag. With the velcro on, the mag side will be very secure. Just note, when you do this, it's very hard to reposition when the outer belt is on. Make sure they are in the right spot before you attach. What I did was set up the mag pouches and holster where I want them, position the outer belt on the inner so both the holster and mag pouches are behind the hip bone. Then I then took a thin strip of black electrical tape and wrapped that around the outer belt only, right in line with my belly button. That way when I put the belt on, I have a perfect reference point where the belt goes. Goes on same way every time. If you're shooting Limited or L10, doesn't really matter much. .

heckofagator Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Guys, thanks for all of the tips. I was laying in bed last nite, wondering if I had the shims somehow installed incorrectly. I had them veritical, instead of horizontal. Then I wake up and see this pic (thanks!) and see that yes, indeed, that is the case. Now that I see how they're installed, we're good to go!
