For me, the best way to get the most out of training is to go with some sort of belt set up like you all have shown.
My problem is unless I deploy again, I will not be using a 6004 anymore, so I don't want to wear one in training. I'd like to run a padded belt with MOLLE attachments so that while in class, I will have a BOK, CSM dump pouch, M4 mags and 1911 mags on my person, along with the 1911 (no more damn M9 for me!). Any suggestions on how to run a normal kydex holster (Blade-Tech or COMPTAC) on a MOLLE belt? I'm going to look into the solution of bolting to a piece of kydex like one poster mentioned.
Look at what I did with the webbing and Sidearmor holster. That arrangement definitely works with the belt keepers passed over the kydex where the belt normally passes through. The Blade-Tech holster is different in that the belt slot is much more open. A similar arrangement would work, but the strap would probably need to be reinforced to be stiffer.
