Question; if I understand correctly, install the magazine pouch with one of the screw brackets directly over the hinge, with the other being on the link? Hi, please see the picture in attachment.

attakmint Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Does moving the brackets to the hinge seem to reduce/remove the wiggle? How does it affect flexibility? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does it affect flexibility? It reduces the wiggling and increases the contact surface on the innerbelt en velcro of the Lynx belt. I'll test it thouroughly during tomorrow's IPSC training. More later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakerjd Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Way to.much movement from the vids I've seen on youtube. My SC steel core belt is rock solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrussell Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Moving the brackets to the hinge seems to work. I don’t notice any more wiggling. I sure do like being able to fold it up to put it inside the range bag; much more convenient. I will continue to try it out and see what happens.

terrydoc Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Just re-watched the DAA video and Saul has his pouched attached over the hinges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildPete Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I used my size 40" Lynx belt for a match today. I didn't notice any movement with my Ghost mags installed over the hinges. I installed my Ghost 360 mag holders over the hinged area initially, I wasn't sure what the correct way was, and it appeared to work fine in static testing. I ran the DAA Alpha-X holster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrussell Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 That iss mgreat news; I plan on practicing with mine all week and see if everything works and is stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyGlock Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Got my Lynx belt. In my practice and match experience, Its far superior than the common in/out competition belt. In function and aesthetics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrussell Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I ended going back to my DAA Pro Competition belt. Nothing really wrong with the Lynx system, I just prefer the ratchet system I installed on the DAA belt. I do miss not being able to put the rig inside my shooting bag, but will have to live with that. Still keeping my Lynx belt; not ruling out I may go back to it at some point.

Try putting your ratchet to your lynx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrussell Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I did; works well. For now I just prefer my original belt, although I might go back to Lynx at some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbrussell Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I thought I would resurrect this thread for an update. I finally remembered why I wanted to try the Lynx belt system; the ability to store/transport rig in my range bag. While I like my regular DAA belt system, no matter how I tried to attach it to my backpack range bag, it always flopped around banging into everything. What a pain in the butt. So I changed the ratchet system on my Lynx belt to mimic my other DAA belt system, fiddled around with holster and mag pouch locations, now I can store/transport the whole thing in my range bag. Now for extended time with the rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyGlock Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 (edited) Right. The banging around thing is quite annoying. I also have them w/ ratchet. I just buy individual links and bag of pins, cheaper than the complete set. While the Lynx is very rigid the ratchet compliments it to make the gears most stable.

vluc Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Got mine yesterday, set it up and installed CR Speed pouches on it. Works fine, heavier than the regular belts which slightly surprised me. I want to experiment, jpeters notion of a tee nut in a link intrigues me as the CR Speed holder itself has to span two links. So I'll order another couple of links and give it a try once I figure out size and threading for the tee to accommodate the link and a smaller screw for use on the mag body itself. I think the belt is a better notion for shooters who use fewer mag pouches. I have these four and a magnet for production, ran with one less for CO. Will know for sure after this weekend's match.

cbrussell Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Went to the range today to do some shooting. Man, it was great not having my rig bang around all over the place. Being able to store the Lynx rig inside the range bag is gold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AverageJoeShooting Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 ive been using the lynx belt since it got released and its amazing. hands down the best belt on the market. ive had no failures at all, the belt is nice and easy to roll up and store and best of all theres no flex at all in the system tbh i dont know why everyone isnt using this one. theres no disadvantages.

Yes, I use it in place of the buckle. I will try to post some pictures later. Works great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vluc Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) I used EZ-Loks instead. Drilled 5/16 hole test fit the ez lok, measured where it needed to be cut (they are 12mm long, needed to be 7 mm). My experiment after getting teh CR Speed brackets on in the earlier picture.
