First line belts

-The off-side drop leg hanger keeps me from putting my belt AR mag (and therefore the dump pouch when it arrives) quite as far forward as I'd like.

This is why I have a box-style dump pouch on my belt rig. The opening is always available and always in the same place so it's easy to use when it's behind your back.

I run my belt rig more a support system than somthing that would stand alone as a grab and go set-up.

Starting with a Blackhawk duty belt and an ICE belt pad. I added a set of SPEC-OPS suspenders and a Safariland 6005 belt loop. This allows me to use either my .45 springfield govt or either of my 2 Springfield XD's. Just by switching out the 6004 holster from the belt assembly. Added to the rig are 2 roly-polys, one large and one medium. The large one is used as a dump pouch and the med is used for shotgun shells, gloves, food, or whatever. Add to that a comms pouch and a small GP pouch from tactical assault systems {yeah it's an old pouch} and thats it. I have no ammo pouches attached as I fall under the same problem as Kevin B. does.

So do I understand several of you are using the ICE belt pad. Removing their belt out of the pad and replacing it with a Eagle, BHI, or other belt? If so is that to get the clip type quick release buckle vs. the ICE metal slider type of buckle?

Sorry for the noob question.

The ICE belt pad doesnt come with a belt. You must provide your own.

I've been considering getting an ICE belt pad, but I keep reading about problems with actually getting it after ordering it. Sometimes the wait is up to 3 months.

Any info about that?

FWIW- I've heard the same, which is what has kept me from ordering one.
Guys that have them- What has been your experience?

I did have to wait a few months on mine. Wasnt a big deal to me though.

I have a couple of DBT pouches and they seem good to go. I may pick up a few more things from them in the future. Couldnt tell you anything about their belt pad.

[Vinnie]

The ICE pad I bought was 2nd hand so the wait for me was not a concern. But the quality of the pad is 1st rate so it really boils down to if you can wait then wait. If not the DBT belt or the S.O. Tech belt are also top shelf pieces of kit.

Here is the link for the S.O. Tech belt
