Yes! Yes AK that'd be exactly what I want. I just want to urn a "scavengers belt" for picking stuff up when Shtf, so a pair of dump pouches, and an admin pouch and a canteen is probably all I will want to run

Is your waist 26", or do you wear 26" pants? Often there is a difference. If your actual waist is a bit bigger, the small on this one goes down to 27":

Just got the order confirmation :awesome:

I was waiting to find a new belt, the ol' girl ALICE isn't quite tacticool enough for a gucci bastard like me :clap: , Plus the inner velcro means I can use it as a IPSC belt without having to Malice-clip the belt to my pants belt :rofl:

I'm using it as an inner belt for a VTAC Brokos, but it's a solid platform. It's good and stiff (that's what she said) for support and the inner loops are Molle sized, so you can run your Malice clips through them and it will keep your gear in place.

Excellent. I don't run any padding on my belt as you've seen, I like my belt tight and stiff so it doesn't flop around or shift out of place while running/crawling/etc. In my early days I had a knockoff ALICE belt I got from a surplus store- I had to constantly fight the thing to stay tightened. The legit ALICE is MUCH better, but adjusting it is damn near impossible. And those stupid little brass eyelets are pointless in the 21st Century. :lol:

Plus ol' ALICE is just not sexy enough for my gucci loadout anymore :awesome:

Yeah, I was impressed with Emdom's belt (as I usually am with their gear). It's definitely a nice step-up from old Alice and more supportive than any of the riggers belts I have. The price isn't too bad either.

Did you find one to match your Gucci Ranger Green gear :lol:

Tactical Taylor makes very good replacement pads for the Alice Pack. They are a tad bit pricey but believe me, they are a million times better than the original pads. Definitely worth the beans, And for a few more beans you can buy their frame for the pack as well. It is Much more stronger yet lighter weight. Hoped that helped. Again the Prices are kind of high, but its worth it in the long run, plus they will last as long as you do. :clap:

Only if you were in USMC.
Depending on era or war, "deuce gear" would change.

I still like wearing M1956 web gear.

Here's a link for the little ALICE manual that came with my gear:
http://www.georgia-outfitters.com/_alic ... manual.htm

Or you could get a FM 21-15 too.

BTW, with just a 26" waist, what can he put on belt?
A butt pack would tip him backwards?
I put some E German pouches on LBE for my grandkids. SK mag pouch subs for butt pack.

So the MM CM belt rocks. Buy it. Super easy to adjust, nice and stiff, the loops for Malice clips are great, and the inner velcro is a nice touch. The buckle is brilliant and will not come undone in the field under any circumstances. Great belt.

I have to agree. I picked one up recently and it really sets the standard for gun belts. Well, gun belts that my cheap ass has tried anyway. :lol:
