It's been a couple years since I bought my first quality gun belt. I bought a Galco belt from a police supply store, and been wearing it everyday since then. It's starting to show signs of wear and tear, so figured I will need to buy another one. How many gun belts do you folks go through?

Been wondering the same thing. I purchased a Beltman bullhide belt about two months ago. I hope I dont have to replace it every two years.

From what I have read if you follow good practices such as cleaning it, never rolling it up (coiled up) and storing it properly when not in use, it should last YEARS.

I replace them when I run out of holes and I can't poke anymore in it

Aside from progressive increases in abdominal girth :), there should be no need to replace a really good (meaning best materials, best construction) gunbelt at any particular interval.
I'm referring to leather and skilled leathersmiths, not cut-rate stuff.
I have belts from Lou Alessi, for instance, which I've worn daily for some 15 years, that need no "replacement", and continue to provide excellent support and continue to look near-new.

Are there any gunbelts with interchangeable buckles?

I have some fancy-shmancy buckles with "The State of Texas" seal on them that I like to wear. Any good leather gunbelts that'll let me use these buckles?

I have an Aker B21 that has a replaceable buckle. The belt isn't near as nice in finish as a Beltman, but it has held up to a year and a half of every day, hard use. Well made belt, just not a baby smooth finish.

I replace my belt when it wears out.I have so many I won't need to buy another unless I gain or loose to much weight.
