"However horrible the incident of war may be, the soldier who is called upon to offer his life for his country, is the noblest development of mankind." - General of the Army Douglas MacArthur, Manila, 24 August 1936
I'm glad this got bumped. I finally got mine done and took some pics of it. Ran it at our pistol drills night with the handgun and handgun mags only and am not sure I like it. Will try to get back and post pics and impressions tonight. I wound up with:
Eagle pistol belt
Eagle belt pad
Blade Tech holster
Eagle FB AR and 1911 pouches (two each)
CSM dump pouch
Strider DB knife
ETA pics

Rob,
What don't you like about the set up?
I think that, as a belt setup, it's actually very good. I'm just not sure that a "battle belt" serves any purpose in my lineup, and the weight is a bit much for me when wearing it over a my daily carry belt. If I have to wear a duty-type under-belt with it, then it just wouldn't ever see any use for me.
For most classes I love my "Bat Belt" set-up. It allows me to have three spare Glock/M&P mags or four 1911 mags on me, plus one AR/AK spare mag. For AR's I always run a Redi-Mag so three mags, plus 1 or 2 stuffed in a pocket has always been enough. Not to mention my dump pouch, trauma pouch, hand held light pouch, universal tool, etc. It makes life simple.
I have a simple four magazine chest rig for higher round count classes but it's a lot cooler in the summer heat to just wear the belt.
While I seriously doubt it’s ever going to be used for much else, my belt is handy to have laying around.
