    All HSGI except duty weapon and X26P holsters of course. Single mag pouch holds OC in front of duty weapon. Works great. 7.5 years at the Academy Assit. Range Master, Lead Taser yada, yada, yada. Point is creeping up on 50 yo and 26 yos and this is the most comfortable rig I've ever worn. Granted, a lot of weight on there but I'm a 6' 260lb knuckle dragger with a 38" waist. Lots o "tactical girth".

    Oh, and even discounted it's not cheap, but well worth it at my age/wear and tear.

    Remember, the Founding Fathers reason for the 2nd Amendment... to combat tyranny. Sadly, when people discuss the 2nd Amendment, the opponents erroneously think it was meant to stand alone... it HAS a preamble:

    "...But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security..."

    Nice rig Zeus. I went to a HSGI Duty Grip Padded Belt with a 1.75" cobra belt. Best move I ever made. What belt are you using?

    If I remember correctly, which is pretty hard these days (rig's about two years old) Its HSGI's recommended cobra belt. Has served me well, and like I said, the comfort is off the chain. I come from an era when comfort and "look professional" could not be used in the same sentence. Wonder how many careers would have been saved, longer, or a better enjoyed retirement could have been had if the troop's health were put first. Bet a lot less lower back/sciatic issues...

    9 years later, and the VTAC belt keeps going strong. I settled on this configuration last year, seems to work pretty well for me as a training class partner. It's easy to scale up with a chest rig and small backpack as needed.

    I wrapped a few Safariland GLS holsters in Crye Multicam Cordura. I don't think they're as effective against gun grabs, but for active retention and consistent draw they're pretty great.

    Endur, you’re going to LOVE that belt pad. I’m never going back! Did you get the HSGI or the Wilder? They look to be exactly the same, I’m curious if the Wilder is just a knockoff.
