The Gun Belt / What's On The Bench

The usual progression of the first time gun buyer or even first time Conceal Carry person, is they think long and hard about the gun they want. They do research and hopefully test fire or at least handle several guns to see what they like. Then after much deliberation they purchase that fire arm. While most just "buy something" to put it inside of there pants, some will give almost as much thought and attention the holster that they would put it in.

For most, that is as far as it goes for some time. After all they have purchased the gun, and a holster to put it in. What people often over look is the support system which is the gun belt. I have never heard anyone that moved up to a gun belt that did not say it was so much better that the regular belt they had always worn.

The Bam Bam Gun Belt is made from two layers of leather totaling just a hare over 2 tenths of an inch. I can make them even thicker if you like just be aware of whether or not the thicker belt will fit you pants and holster. Belts start at 60.00. Stamping or decorative stitching pattern is an additional 15 dollars. The pic describes how to measure it. There are seven holes 3/4 inch apart, centered on the measurement you give. If the belt is wrong because you measure wrong, it is your problem, measure correctly (don't just give your pant size)
