I should have them in about a month or so.

I placed the order with Jim, the owner of "Beltman" and enjoyed a great conversation with him. I really like the guy.

That's a pretty good lead time. My leather guy (Thompson Tactical) is backed up about 8 weeks right now.

Ordered the CSM Instructor on Friday afternoon, it arrived today. Haven't had much time with it yet, but first impression is overwhelmingly positive. It's stiff, but not uncomfortable with my 1911 IWB. The level of adjustment with the Velcro is definitely better than finding the closest hole with leather.

I'm going to strap an OWB on tomorrow and see how it does.

Thanks guys, appreciate the info.

Are y'all using the 3 stitch, 5 stitch or the CSM? I'm waffling on the 5 or the reinforced...

Quick question for those of you who have used both a rigger style belt and a leather gun belt. I'm using leather now with my IWB holster (also leather) and its working out well. I've got an OWB Kydex on the way for my new HK and I'm debating on going with a Wilderness Tactical belt for it, as opposed to a lengthy wait for my leather guy to make me a new one.

Are the nylon belts going to be stable and comfortable with OWB and a full size?
