+1 on Wilderness Belt, About $40 most places. Beltman also makes a fine belt at a decent price. I have several of each and some belts from other makers too. But, the Beltman is my favorite.

I have a Beltman 1.5" and a Wilderness 5 stitch. If I had to do the Wilderness over again, I would get the plastic stiffener in it. It's just not as good as the Beltman. Both are excellent, but the Beltman is tops.

I just got my Crossbreed belt after about two weeks. I thought my carry rig was fine before the belt (Ruger SR9 in a Crossbreed Supertuck), but with the Crossbreed belt, it's even more comfortable, which I didn't think possible. Plus, you've got Crossbreed's excellent customer service and lifetime warranty.

I am sure CB will do you fine - his holsters are great. But I have a Belt Man belt - it is all that I read about. Can't go wrong with a Belt Man. And I would bet the same for a Crossbreed Belt.

I wrote a "kind" of a review on a Wilderness the other day in another section of this forum. I have enclosed the URL for that thread. Hope it helps some Wilderness Belts

Well, I called Rafter S today. I didnt see a charge on my card which I figured Id see since the belt was supposed to go out yeterday.

I called and got Willie who had no idea how to look up my order and told me that Della wasnt in yet. This was almost noon my time. He took my info and said Id get a call about the order in a few hours. A few hours meaning what a day? Well after 4 hours went by I called and got Willie again who didnt even remember our conversation from earlier in the day. No not one detail.

That was enough for me. I told him to not worry about the order and I ordered a Wilderness with the 5 Stitch.

I do in fact forsee a Beltman coming my way though. I always wear an untucked shirt so I dont think it matters what belt I have on when it comes to looks.

Hate to say I told ya' so, but................. Be sure to call your CC company and put a block on any order from Rafter S. I absolutely would not put it past them to place the charge. It is truly a shame that what was once a great company has gone into the crapper and a VERY unscrupulous one at that.

Order a Beltman now that you have a Wilderness coming. You will love it and Jim is a guy you can trust.
