Review on 5.11 Tactical Operator 1 3/4" Belt, Military Style, Heavy-Duty Nylon Mesh 5100Lb Tensile Strength, Stainless Steel Buckle, Fade & Rip Resistant, Style 59405 by Adrian Summers

Well I'm not a HUGE fan of 5.11; but, I must say this is one of there better quality products. The belt is definitely tough. I accidentally hit myself in the knee with the buckle and thought I got hit with a sledge hammer. The nylon is very thick and tough. Which is good but is also it's down side. I have a hard time fitting a lot of things on this belt. Some things wont clip on or take a lot of work to get them on properly. The blackhawk serpa holster with paddle fits great on here. It takes a little wiggling to get it to seat properly and is a pain to get off. A regular pancake holster will fit on here.The biggest problem I have is I bought this to size as a regular leather belt. Should have gotten a size smaller as the excess strap wraps around too much. (Which makes it impossible for me to open the belt with the blackhawk holster on since it goes over the excess.).Don't go a size up from your pant size. IE : 34 pant, 36 inner belt, 38 duty belt. I got the L size which was for up to 36. Should have gotten the medium.
