Very sturdy gun belt and true to size. I’ve had a couple different gun belts over the years but the craftsmanship of this belt appears to be superior to any of those I’ve worn before. It’s a great looking belt! As far as sizing goes, I lost several pounds recently and needed a new gun belt but didn’t have a belt that fit well to measure against and determine what size I should order. As suggested in the description, I went with the waist size of the jeans I’m now wearing and the belt hole I’m using with this belt is right in the middle. I have room either way should my weight fluctuate one way or the other. As far as sturdiness goes, I’m carrying a Beretta 92FS compact with a leather OWB holster. Even though it’s a “compact”, the 92 is by no means a light weapon. This belt easily keeps my holster tight against the body and there is absolutely no sagging in the belt whatsoever. I’m sure I could easily carry another 92 and multiple mag pouches with ease.
