Save the money on your holster - skip the 203. It's fun, but I'd spend the money on ensuring I keep my pistol.

You don't have to buy a SERPA - that is just one of many options out there currently. Try looking at BHI's regular lineup of dropleg holsters, or even Eagle's - they can be had four about 60 dollars and are just as good.

A leash is a good idea, but you'll really want a better holster. Like I said, there are many great brands out there that are real deal, high quality gear. Hell, UM82 holsters can be found for as little as 30 bucks, and they're USGI issue.


But, that's my advice.

that belt wont fit when you wear the vest, and you need to cut the molle straps near the top to get the camel back to fit and not hit your butt

The belt is for my pants so my holster can hook up to, not for the vest.

Thanks for the advice on the pack.

I apologize, they're called UM84, not UM82.

They're also known as the M12 Holster - made more so for the Beretta M9, but fit large frame automatics like 1911s.

Anywhere.


They're normally on eBay, US Cavalry, actiongear.com, Ranger Joe's, etc.


If you go to any of the local gun shows (Kane County's is really good), you can normally find them all over there, too - and normally for the best price of around 30-40 bucks.

Bianchi UM-84 Holster:

@ Brigade Quartermaster's (Actiongear.com)

@ eBay

Again @ eBay

Won't fit. Wider than your belt loops.

Like Mustang said, it's 2" wide. You need something 1 3/4" or narrower.

Go with some sort of Rigger's belt instead. Tougher, more stiff, and will hold a holster better without sagging as much.

Eh, the two inch width is fine. It would still fit under your vest comfortably. I wear a two inch belt under mine, and it doesn't bother me at all. But I will go with them on that you may need a thicker material belt in order for it to hold a pistol better.

Wearing a pistol belt with a vest or chest harness can get really really uncomfortable, just keep that in mind.

Well, just wear a regular belt to hold up the pants, and put the web belt around that. It's not that complicated. Or you can just attach the pisol holster to a regular belt. I use to that, but that got really un-comfortable, so I switched to a web belt.

If you're going with a pistol belt, get belt keepers. Trust me on this one. Only thing that'll hold my duty belt up when I'm at work (I'm a security guard, and load up my duty belt with a ton of crap). There's a place up by CLC that sells that sort of stuff for pretty cheap. It's called Tri-County Uniform.

Where by CLC is this Tri-County Uniform place? I live about 20 minutes from the campus.
