Custom Gear Report

We received the Ultimate Riggers Belt from 215 Gear a couple months ago but held off on doing the review when we saw that ITS Published their review at that time. Not to mention we were having some hardware trouble with our video gear. I also misspoke in the video, apparently Soldier Systems has not done a review of the belt, I thought they had.

Anyway, we’ve gotten to the point were we can get something out for you. Here is our take on the belt.

Points to Note:

• Cobra Buckle: Tan Anodized Aluminum, rated to 4000 lbs
• Webbing attachment point, no bulky hardware
• Mil-w-4088 Type 13 parachute harness webbing
• Sewn with 5 cord thread on a class 7 machine.
• Multiple diamond stitch pattern near attachment point
• 6 Rows of stitching to provide rigidity
• Lifetime warranty
• Made in the USA

Retail: $74.99

Sizes:

Medium fits 30”-35” waist
Large fits 35-40” waist.
X-Large fits 40-45” waist.

Salt Fog Testing:

As mentioned in the video 215 Gear hired an independent lab to conduct salt water testing on their belt to see how it compared against several other leading manufacturers belts.

I wanted to get this initial write up out and will follow up with a short video. I recently received several items from 215 Gear who we’ve reviewed in the past and among them was a pretty cool and simple weapon retention lanyard. Called the Multi-Mission Weapon’s Retention it comes in both black and khaki.

It consists of a length of tubular webbing that contains a piece of bungee within it. Each end has a specific piece of hardware, one being a screw link and the other what is commonly referred to as a field repair side release buckle. The hardware is held by loops that are sewn down with 3 bartacks on each side.

Our first video review. Go Gear’s Half Pint Modular belt.

Just a few notes, as noted in the video I screwed up and said 720 instead of 725 for the fabric, and also gave the wrong web address at the end Paul’s site is http://www.gogeartactical.com
