2nm amen gun belt?

[DeputyDawg]

I was just wondering if anyone has ever used one of these belts and what they thought of it. This would be my first carry belt. Not looking to spend a bunch of cash but I would like something reasonably decent.

I just bought a KORE belt the other day. I got tired of always trying to adjust my last belt to fit "just right" with a traditional buckle with stud and holes an inch apart (even with adding a few holes of my own. Easy NES - calm down. Not those kind of holes). This looks like a budget version (NES Skinflint?) for work instead of dress. Interested after I see durability reviews.

I am a bit of a skinflint. I don't like spending money unnecessarily. Not all things deserve the price just for a name.

The savings doesn’t look that great vs. a Kore or Next belt. I have two Next belts, one Bond for dress clothes and one EDC. I also have a Kore (functionally identical).

I was looking at both of those. Is the a specific Nexbelt or Kore you would recommend

Drugs kicking in?

I’m pretty happy with my next belt. I’d buy another.

I have a Kore and never regretted spending the money.

I was trying to sound smart, trying to fit in with all the NES engineers.

I failed.

However, I can't be a d*ck to the OP. I have a belt from WOLF TACTICAL. Not expensive. Has been great for 2 years, wearing it every day.

Well. If it makes you feel
Better, a lot of climbing gear and webbing strength is measured in kN.

How do you like the cobra stile buckle? Seems like it would dig into you.

It works fine for me. It doesn't dig. But I don't have a big belly.

The one thing is it can be a little big and hard to fit through some pants belt loops. But no problem with jeans.

Also, the length is adjusted using velcro, which holds great, but if you eat too much and want to let it loose, it is not easy, can't back down a couple of holes.

Being amazon, order 2 or 3 and return the ones you don't like.

I think I like the look of the Nexbelt the most so far. Although the Kore seems a little thicker and more durable. Ill have to think it over and do some more research.

Whichever strikes your fancy.

Buy these they’re $17.50 apiece and 10 times better. They have a newer model where it just has a center press release I wouldn’t want that

Mine is going strong. About a year or so old and wear it almost daily.

Bummed to hear this.

I still have my ares gear belts which have been solid also.

Have you tried a Kore?

That's okay.

Nm is Newton-meters...nm would be nanometers. I thought he found some cyberpunk belts made out of graphene or something, that's so thin it'll cut you but stiff enough to hold up a DEagle.

I share your disappointment.

 

[Andy in NH]

Have you tried a Kore?

I've been wearing one daily since Nov. 22nd and like it so far.... I'll report back on durability in a year or so, but there are others (in the Gun Belt thread) who have been wearing them for longer.

 

[s&w3913]

I’ve had mine since 2018.. it’s on right now..

I carry everything from the Sig P365 to the Berretta 92 on it no issues..

 

[DeputyDawg]

Kore it is. The only thing that sucks is they are cheaper on Amazon but they don't have any I like.
