Fuzz Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Just curious and looking into the systems and what is out there. I know the Safariland system is out there but that would mean replacing 3 whole rigs and attachments. That would be salty. Is there a system for the Velcro belt systems like Double Alpha? How well do they work? Pro's Con's Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 You buy the ratchet parts and drill/punch two holes in your old belt to mount the hardware. https://www.ratchetingbuckles.com/ Carbon Arms also sells bolts ready to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 1" ratcheting buckle on my 3 gun belt, I love that I can get it tight. When I ordered it I ordered a few extra. Think I'll do my USPSA belt next.

Frankly Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Works well, I use the metal buckle, like a ski boot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanttolearn Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) i'd sure appreciate some photos if possible to show how to best attach the ski boot type ratchet system to a velcro type double belt....this might be just what i need to get. do you cut off part of the belt so you can add the ladder part, precluding attaching a mag pouch in the front for example? and would it be able to draw the velcro across? thanks Edited February 28, 2019 by wanttolearn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHAVEGAS Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Hmmm. An enterprising person might be able to finagle something to work with this. https://www.slidebelts.com/?gclid=CjwKCAiAqt7jBRAcEiwAof2uKy7dfTM1fTIx_XCu_830PvcIvIiz3KSaFlj7vuAuFQCK04viLPij0RoC5Y0QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for overlap. Drill holes in belt. Attach ratchet to holes. Ratchet that f*#ker down. Spin belt around so it ratchets in the back and you dont lose usable belt space.

Sawdustnsteel Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I set mine to ratchet behind my holster. Figured that’s the last place I’m reaching for anything once I’ve drawn my pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
