O_O Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I just drilled through the velcro to get my ELS screws in. Thought it would be an initial setup shortcut, afraid I'd want to move things around and lose too much material but it worked perfectly. Bit was nice and goopy but used an old one and it cleaned up easily enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) Anyway, https://www.ratchetingbuckles.com/ratchet-buckles-ladder-straps/1-ratcheting-buckle-attached-to-extension-tab-rb1t-n-blacktanwhite-2-2-2/ offers some options, just ordered one with the metal buckle to modify my existing belt. Would have ordered the Carbon Arms but it's been out of stock for months. Edited January 24, 2019 by Frankly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delfuego Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 It's a ratchet & ladder from a Snowboard binding, that's it. Just go find one and install it yourself. I bet you can find one for cheap or free at any ski/snowboard shop. If not, buy some bindings from CL ($5-$20) and send the extra 3 ratchet/ladders to your buddies.

Rucker61 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 What's the best way to cut the outer belt to length? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ming the Merciless Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Guillotine! I have an old super heavy duty paper trimmer so I used it. Worked great, but when I needed to trim the outer belt a little bit more, I just used a pair of sheet metal shears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon49erfan Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I used Wiss Snips. They work well for cutting kydex also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmrboy Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Then use a heat source like a propane torch to melt the end so it doesn't fray.Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o27 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 How does the ratchet work when the other belt is fully lined with velcro as all normal belts are? Doesn’t this restrict or prohibit the ratching? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BelRiose Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Folks either don’t wear the inner belt, or only use the ratchet to tighten the last little bit once getting it on over the inner Velcro. I’m in the second camp, because I feel like the inner belt gives some added stability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t this restrict or prohibit the ratching? I start the tab into the ratchet then wrap the belt around me starting at the holster, since it is the most important thing on the belt. When the holster is perfect, I start tightening the ratchet, and yes over the inner Velco belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t this restrict or prohibit the ratching? The trick is to get your inner belt fairly tight so that when you ratchet down the outer belt it doesn't cause the inner belt to bunch up too much. You do still need the inner belt if you want maximum stability. Which you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brasspicker Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Would a CR Speed belt work better with the ratchet system if you took off the Velcro on the outer belt just in the front where it overlaps? Anybody done this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody done this? I have my ratchet on a Safariland belt, just trimmed till it has an inch gap wrapped around me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
