jid2 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I've been looking for a way to configure my 3 Gun gear for each stage without having to switch over to a complete ELS rig. To date that means always taking it off and moving stuff around. There are a lot of really nice mag pouches and holsters etc out there for the CR Speed type belts so ELS always felt like moving to something unknown. Anyway, it's been on my project list and I finally got around to it. I've built one so far and it's working really well. Now I just need to create some simple fixturing and build myself a bunch more.

gondo Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Blade tech tmms, get the minis for anything except a holster work great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitoR Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Gondo, sorry for my ignorance, but which one of the TMMS minis goes on the accessory and which one goes on the belt? Inner on the accesory? If that is the case, why would the kit have two outer and 1 inner? I though you have one belt location (outer) that will allow changing configuration (multiple inners attached to pouches for shotgun shells or ar magazines).

Tiwaz Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) jid2 those are awesome, very clean design. TitoR on the TMMS the outer attaches to the accessory and the inner attaches to the belt. Edited March 4, 2014 by Tiwaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammar Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Those look great. Just what I have been looking for. Hope you will be able to get them into some kind of production as there is a need/want.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUBL Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 What you might want to think of doing is to take your idea for the belt part......make it work for the ELS hook. My reasoning is that the ELS hook has many ways to attach holsters, shell caddies, etc. The weakest link on the ELS is the part that attaches to the belt. I believe that a very well known shooter was DQ'd once due to the fact that his pistol (in the holster) was ripped off his belt when it got caught on something in a car. The belt part that you have is the easy part to make anyways! Just my $.02........Nice design. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jid2 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 Yeah - I considered making the belt adapter work with an ELS clip. The ELS clip is just SO wide, it ends up taking lots of room. But it's not a crazy idea, might be worth looking at as well. I need to look at some shot shell caddies and see what will work best to mount to my clip. For me it's going to be for pouches for speed loaders, or that Safariland leg mount holder thingy. Honestly it seems like a simple single hole in the middle is actually pretty good. The ELS clip and that TMMS clip prescribe a bunch of holes in certain patterns and the way they mold them you cant really add your own hole. So if you use something that works it's great, but not super flexible if it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagdrag Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I think I need about 6 of these. At least 5 for my Taccom Quick Caddies. Somehow this seems more appealing to me than the Safariland ELS. I guess I'm really attached to my CR Speed belts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposed to use the QLS with holsters. ELS is for pouches, accessories..... http://www.safariland.com/DutyGear/duty/qas.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Man i have no clue why ppl package them like that. The female goes on the belt and bladetech includes 2 but only one male, funny way to do things i think. BUTTT what you can do is buy them from Shooters Source and Jeremy sales them in the kit or individual female or male pieces!!! Plus he ships them same day and is always good to do business with. The more i use these the more i like them. I use them for my shell holders in 3 gun and i can run traditional, load 2 or quad depending on what the stages requires and I just slide them off when not using them... caz who wants to reset steel with quad loads on their belt anyway. I think they are pretty well made but only time will tell. I would trust anything on them except my pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
