Snake Eater Tactical Belt Design Update

By on March 9, 2015 in EDC, Tactical Gear

Snake Eater Tactical makes some excellent belts. I have used one of their Cobra Rigger’s Belts for years and I am currently trying one of their SET War Belts. Both have been excellent products.

They recently updated the design of their belts to remove the hook and loop material that secures the belt tail. Their reasoning behind this move is that the hook and loop is the weakest link in a quality belt. Its tendency to wear out is the only thing that prevents the belt from lasting forever. I have owned many webbing gun belts over the years and in my experience they are correct.

They are now using a keeper that is sewn into the belt to secure the tail. The keeper can not be lost because it is sewn in between the layers of the belt. It is secured in such a way that it can move along the length of the belt a short distance in order to secure varying lengths of belt tail.

VEIL Solutions Pocket Carry Strut

VEIL Solutions has developed a pointed strut that bolts on to their standard Apex and Ghost holsters without modification to convert the holster to pocket carry configuration. The strut serves to ensure that the handgun and holster stay upright in the pocket and to catch the pocket so the holster breaks free of the handgun during your draw stroke.

The real limiting factor of a setup like this is the size of your pockets. It seems to be especially well suited to VEIL Solutions’ very compact VS Ghost Holster for the Glock 42.

Powell Custom Holsters Laser Activating Kydex Holster

By on March 7, 2015 in EDC, Guns

Powell Custom Holsters has come up with an interesting holster design for use with Crimson Trace Rail Master lasers mounted on a handgun. The holster is molded in such a way that the Rail Master’s on/off paddle is activated when the handgun is holstered and unholstered. This means that you can turn on the laser and then insert it into the holster where it will automatically be turned off. When the handgun is unholstered, the laser is automatically activated.

This could be an interesting set up to use in conjunction with night vision and the IR versions of the Rail Master.

 

Triple 7 Gear

By on March 6, 2015 in EDC

20$Bandit is rebranding as Triple 7 Gear. The new Triple 7 Gear brand will be a better fit as they expand and continue to develop new products until they put their gear in every one of your pockets! Eric, the brains behind the Mini Kit and Micro Kit, is still head honcho but he isn’t the only person behind the brand now so it seemed appropriate to shift the focus to the gear instead of the man.
