Ciguera Gear makes the Emissary Belt. It is an EDC belt that in our opinion checks all the right boxes. Ciguera also makes the Battle Wagon, their take on a battle belt.
What is the 1911 Syndicate? We do a few things. We started out as a real estate company primarily targeted at serving the military/LE/shooting/hunting communities. Consider it our "day job" and we can serve you pretty much anywhere in the USA. Next we're a content producer. We kind of fell into it semi by accident, and here we are today. We try to do things a little different and have some fun. Thanks for tuning in.

[@geebeaux]

I sure wish Papa Thumb did more collabs. This belt does seem to check all the boxes, without any nonsense.

[@jorges2000]

I've been using my Ciguera Emissary belt for almost 2 years, it's AWESOME.

[@IrradiatedLimes]

Bought my first one 4 years ago that I used every single day. Still have it, but replaced it with a secondary emissary. Love these belts.

[@1911syndicate]

🤙🏻

[@usernameunknown658]

Been using mine for 2-3 years now it’s amazing

[@justinm.791]

I was one of those people that ordered the belt after the GT video. I've used the belt daily since then and the belt still works like it did on day one. This belt has been a game changer for me..my previous belts either wore out and got flimsy or they were too firmand weren't comfortable.

[@1911syndicate]

Glad to hear it 🤙🏻

[@Chrisblau]

Yep. Exactly my experience also man.

[@DynamoDanm]

Been wearing this belt for years, still looks great. One of my best buys

[@1911syndicate]

Sweet!!

I have two generations of emissary belts and they are glorious. It's been my daily carry belt for a few years now.

[@1911syndicate]

Cause you’re a classy man

[@Chrisblau]

Hell yeah dude. Good belts I really like what they make

[@HB-kp6rl]

T Rex Arms Nova belt is my go to. I wear it even when im not carrying and liked it so much that i bought another one. Had a Nex belt that was so rigid that I couldn’t stand it so i sold it

[@eatsshootsandleavestactica8068]

Just bought one of these, been EDC'ing with it for about a month so far so good. Two observations: They run small-ish (They go for EXACTLY the measurements selected) so follow the instructions on their website for measuring yourself, and them add a few inches, you'll be glad to have the extra options. AND My most comfortable length sits right between two of the holes on the belt, so I may have to either get it modified or exchange it for a slightly larger or smaller one.

[@lawrencemartinez8289]

I’ve been using my ciguera edc belt for 3 yrs and it hasn’t failed! Works great as a edc & duty belt, use a tenacor appendix holster for edc and safariland als holster, dual mag pouch for duty carry. Curious about the battle wagon belt, looking forward to seeing your review video🤙🏼

[@mattpfaff732]

Ordered now. I mentioned you guys in the comment for the order. Hopefully he hooks you up with other stuff to review.

[@bufferover_flo4727]

This belt will be delivered tomorrow…..l this review was right on time…..

[@1911syndicate]

Ha well that worked out

[@viperstarbuck]

Bought an Emissary(standard no loop) 4 yrs ago to anchor my duty belt, and a KORE for CWW. The KORE lasted about two years before the buckle teeth tore through the belt portion twice. So the Emissary does 40hrs a week under duty gear, then however many else as CCW. Emissary being a traditional buckle sits nice and flat and is repeatable. No shame bought it because of Daddy Thumb. Just my experience though!

[@grantnasser2693]

Been running these belts since ADG. Great belts, better company.

[@ALovelyBunchOfDragonballz]

My EDC is a Varstuleka inner belt. Its velco adjustment works with my Cintas work pants* and its polymer loop dont scratch a car at work. Its also female velco (battle belt is male) so it doesn't rub anything wrong. *all my pants say theyre the same size, but half are tight and half are loose. Whatever, they're sorta free.

Just ordered 1 last night...after a week of himming/hawing over other brands that I just couldn't commit to; too tactical or too hipster most of them. I just want a simple frigg'n belt.

[@TonberryShuffle]

How do you find the loop to last on the under belt? I notice in my own use of other products with the loop that it gets messed up, dirty, etc and can have issues with keeping retention up. Not as bad as when the hook gets screwed up but that'd be my concern with using the loop belt for EDC instead of a bare belt.

[@KevinGonzalez-eo1vo]

I’ve run my battle wagon on numerous SWAT operations and its still running strong!!!

[@1911syndicate]

I know the core belts are supposed to be amazing and the belts that are only stiff around the AIWB position are good as well, I have a couple, but I keep coming back the the Emissary Belt.

Who were you looking for after you shot? If you’re looking for a threat, you’re weapon should follow your eyes. Think of clearing a room, your weapon is never pointing one way and your eyes another. That is flat range training theatrics. IF you’re scanning for another threat, keep posture as if ready to engage or you’ll be behind the curve if there is another threat. Love the videos.
