Tesla Kinetic[TK] Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 I will ultimately seek Centurion status. Looking for ideas on how to assemble my belt and attach it to my armor. Specifically, how to attach the holster top the belt. Pictures are most helpful. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Firstly add snaps to the plastic section and the fabric belt, under the belt covers, then attach to the ab like this here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK bondservnt[501st] Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 +1 for glen's post. you want the snaps on the ab to line up with the box on the belt. the snap type is the smaller jeans type snap, not the full sized heavy duty snap. I use chicago screw post 1/4" for the holster attachment. they look just like large pop rivets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 1/4" chicago screws but I think they are too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesla Kinetic[TK] Posted October 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 What is the benefit of using smaller snaps? I would like to know before I travel back to the fabric store... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Master Builder Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Use those Chicago screws, so you can take your holster off whenever you want. Makes packing better as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 You can put snaps behind your holster attachments, I use normal armor size snaps too, all of my holster interchange with my belts, I also like to remove the holster when on a non blaster troop, quicker than using Chicago screws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clamps[TK] Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 I recently switched from chicago screws to snaps on my holster for easier removal for packing or non-blaster troops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
