Has anyone ever tried one? Are they a nice belt?

Martlet,

You might not find many reviews of my belts as I have not sold many since I started making them. But since you are looking high and low for a gun belt for the past few days, I'll send you one for your personal review before you buy.

Let me know:

1. Your measurement in inches from buckle post to hole used when carring concealed inside the waistband.

2. Color (same as your holster order? Cordovan)

3. Width (same as your holster order? 1.5")

If it meets your requirements, you can pay me for it. If not, you can send it back and not be out anything. I'll send it with your holster.

You can email me with your answer or reply here.

Have I been that much of a pain in the butt lately? Now I'm slightly embarrassed. I don't know squat about gun belts and I've only used CrossBreed Holsters. I decided it was time to try something new, so I probably asked too many questions. At the same time, I can't afford to shell out the 100+ bucks many of the holster/belt makers charge. Unless, of course, Congress decides to radically increase the Army pay scale.

That being said, you've made an offer I can't refuse. My current belt size while carrying IWB is 40". That's measuring from the tip of the post to the hole used. Beyond that, this belt is for specific use with your holster, so cordovan and 1.5" is good.

Tom, that was a admirable gesture and a great way to do business.
I haven't looked at your products before but certainly will now.

Edit: Where is the gun list on your website? Do you make an OWB for the XD SC?

Please post the review and let us know how the belt works out for you.

I am currently looking for a new belt as well and would like to hear your opinions.

Well done Tom.
