Shaw Concepts: Usurper Belt and Side-Kick

[@goofygob2178]

Who allowed you outside?

[@EODFish]

Took some leave, escaped the SCIF.

[@MrTylero28]

The vertical cut slots is to route the excess belt material through not for horizontal magazine use at least that’s what I gathered

[@cstgraphpads2091]

That's what pretty much every picture on the site shows.

[@WisSota_Boy]

Huge fan of Shaw Concepts!

[@GamesWithDaumath]

What was the velcro pad on the back of that viewer's MHA?

[@GamesWithDaumath]

nevermind found it ! ferro concepts MHA Velcro bridge.

[@beck4218]

Wow, outside! ;)

[@EODFish]

Away from my garage and had to make due.

[@1olddirtroad]

Looks very good just by the video. Questions: 1. How much does the inner belt weigh by its self. 2. Total weight of both belts and holster carrier? 3. Did you experiment with other inner belt buckles vs the cobra ?

[@nwil3000]

So if you could only have one between this and the pale horse concepts belt which would it be?

[@EODFish]

Probably Pale Horse just because I think I prefer the more traditional layout.

[@midshippie87]

I'm glad I watched this video because I didn't think I could attach the sidekick to the north face concepts mha and qls but clearly I'm just not very bright

[@EODFish]

I’ll buy my own and do a video on that.

[@midshippie87]

@@EODFish I got it done but interested to see how you do it for your set up. It's been odd trying to adjust to the canted mags. I'm using all their systems for pouches but probably will go back to esstac. Their pouches work but reindexing is pretty hard

[@albiecho03]

I literally have never gotten too "warm" from a belt. Including 4-6hr ranges in the desert. Where did you even come up with that lmao

[@EODFish]

You aren’t going to overheat from the belt but it absolutely has a potential to cause some hot spots. Same concept as people wanting some spacing in their PC or gelcups on their ear pro.

[@totenfurwotan4478]

Wear it for days in a row and you will get hot spots for sure

[@albiecho03]

[@danmosse9170]

This seems like a step backwards. There’s a reason hanging stuff on your legs went away.

[@EODFish]

Hanging stuff on your leg never went away. LOW ride holsters went away.

[@danmosse9170]

@@EODFish All evidence I see is to the contrary. I don’t ever see the old HSGI panels, med pouches or drop leg organizers anymore. Most I’ll see is a mid ride holster with a strap to lock it in place.

Thanks again dude. Mailed it back today.

[@DrSpoon-iu4hs]

Hey man I heard the belt was a small, I just wanted to know what size pants you wear, I’m trying to decide if I’m a small or medium

[@Vi3t878]

I wear a 30 with a belt on. 29 without@@DrSpoon-iu4hs

[@AncientGloom]

This has a very interesting design, but I've had a good time using the Blue Alpha Battle Belt Lite. I use the inner belt as an EDC belt for AIWB carry, and when I want to don the outer belt, I just remove my AIWB holster, tighten the inner belt and don the outer belt. Very quick and easy. The outer belt is crazy light and rigid. Almost went with the Defense Mechanisms belt, but was turned off by the lack of real MOLLE on that belt.

[@BlueAlphaBelts]

Great to hear! Thanks!

[@1olddirtroad]

I'm not familiar with BA belt. Does it use metal cobra buckle?

[@AncientGloom]

@@1olddirtroad It comes with a lightweight polymer cobra buckle standard, but they do offer a metal cobra buckle option.

[@well5423]

So you do step out of the basement sometimes! The outdoor video looks great and thanks again for an awesome review.

[@deadeye5155]

Pale horse made something like this i think 1 or 2 years ago

[@EODFish]

The G-hook portion yes.

[@o0oitzJimmy]

Same concepts but manufacturers normally take and rebuild or modify to resell.

[@Muddy_Reviews]

Pale Horse did the same 2 piece belt design with the MOLLE load belt being G hook. It is a great setup, and they have some new versions of their belt offering and setup. It is a bummer Shaw doesn't offer a left-handed version of this belt.

[@jessefreitas44]

Overall I like it but I'm not a fan of the Cobra buckle being on the inner belt. It makes it a pain to don and doff. I think I'm going to make a buckle that hooks into the g hooks and use my bison inner belt.

[@EODFish]

Arbor arms has the best inner belt to date.

[@munkeymouse]

What are your measurments? So we can understand some of your sizing descriptions

[@MrTylero28]

Ordered my usurper. Hopefully it’s great I like it’s feature set

[@xBUSYWORKSx]

pale horse concepts did it better. and first.

[@tinttint8968]

Your technology and design is very good. So cool! And Cheap price! My country haven't tactical gear technology and shop. If you come to my country and product sell you maybe famous 🤩
