Friday, January 21st, 2022

Inspired by a favored Mandalorian warrior, the Mandogator from Hazard 4 is a knee high gaiter made from the same Softshell fabric as their Poncho Villa.

The PALS webbing was integrated for use by ATV riders for handy access.

This is a prototype and they’ve removed the snap at the front. In fact, all of the metal has been removed from the design. Both the adjustable front clip and bottom strap are replaceable.

Magpul Announces Three New Belts

Monday, January 10th, 2022

I’ve been a fan of Magpul’s belts since they came out and now they are opening the options even more with three new models.

The Tejas Gun Belt – “El Cibolo” in Black and Chocolate which is a 3-ply belt made of 100% American bison hide, reinforced with North American bull hide, and backed by a supporting, flexible, reinforced polymer layer.

The Tejas Gun Belt – “El Delgado” in Black, Chocolate is a thinner construction, utilizing a thinner biothane backing to keep the belt sturdy. It is more pliable in initial wear, and allows the belt to keep its original shape over its lifetime.

The one I am really excited about is the new Tejas Gun Belt – “El Pistolero“ in Black, Chocolate, Light Brown. It features decorative stitching throughout the length of the belt for added style and a fifers that distinct look for the gun slinger.

These are Made in Texas and feature Magpul’s removable buckle with branded “tool-free” fasteners and brushed antique silver finish. This sleek profile buckle design sits flat against the waist and helps reduce printing when carrying.

Across the board, Magpul’s belts are offered in 32-46 (even sizes). Width is 1-1/2” wide and 1/4” thick to fit most belt loops and holsters.

Hold Your Pants Belt

Saturday, January 8th, 2022

New from Dillon Rifle Company is the Hold Your Pants Belt. I recently had the chance to check out their full line of new wares and I really like this belt. It’s made from a Jacquard weave webbing and a easy-to-use hook latch-style buckle. The jacquard weave is grippy on the buckle so it won’t slip.

Although it’s shown being used with a mounted holster, it’s really just intended for holding your pants up. Expect a thicker model for use with gear soon.

Offered in two sizes, Large for waists up to 46″ and XLarge for waists up to 56″.
