New or experienced to shooting? Either way, our kits were designed to simplify the process of sourcing the required accessories for training. Our competitive advantage not only comes in the form of cost but also through our accessory inclusion list where some kits include a CAT NAR Gen 7 or SOF T TACMED Solutions Tourniquet, Stainless Steel Multi-Tool, foldable dump pouch, mini first aid kit pack, and more.
Product Assembly performed in the USA. These items have been tested on the range by instructors and civilians and have proven to be exceptionally durable. Our belts come with a 3-Year Warranty. See below FAQ for additional warranty information.
Backorders can take up to 6 weeks from purchase date.
We don't recommend using a range belt for purposes other than range use and certainly not for any weight bearing activities.
Our belts are backed by a 3 Year Warranty period. All other products are backed by a 180 day warranty period. Warranty only covers defective materials and faulty workmanship preventing functionality of the item from normal and intended use.
Refer to Size Guide tab for instructions on how to properly measure one's self.
Sizing: Small/Medium (Size 28" - 38"), Large (Size 39" - 48"). This is based on belt area circumference and not based on pants size.
SHTF BELT is not responsible for orders placed using pants size to determine the belt size. Buyer is responsible for return shipping fees for exchanging any items that is not considered to be defective material and/or faulty workmanship.
Our measurement is based on belt size (circumference through pant loops). This measurement is strictly for the inner velcro pant loop belt and not the anti-slip padded belt. If your waist/stomach is not the same as your belt size and you plan to use the anti-slip belt, then you should base your range belt size on the circumference of the area you intend to wear the anti-slip padded belt. Please note we are not responsible for shipping fees associated with exchanges. If the belt and waist size cross into being both a medium and large, then the customer will need to determine which range belt size is right for them based on the intended use of the inner belt.
For any doubt regarding your proper size, please email or message us prior to order placement so that someone on our team may assist you.
You certainly can. However, regular/leather belts, depending on their thickness, may get warped or damaged over time from the holster and accessories. Additionally, without a reinforcement such as an inner velcro belt, your belt might tend to shift around while moving around and could cause you to miss your draw from holster or miss your mag reload if the holster/pouches are constantly shifting. Our belts stay in place so you don't have to worry about the location or angle of the holster/pouches shifting during your training. Other reasons may include comfort, dedicated belts for the occasion, or even color coordination.
We provide two versions of inner belts (pant loop belt, neoprene waist belt) which allows the user to decide which is most comfortable to them. This is more of a preference. Please note that the two inner belts cannot be joined and it is not intended for users to wear all three belts at once. We recommend the use of the inner 1.5" black belt for those not using drop leg holsters with a thigh strap. If using a thigh strap, then either inner belt will suffice.
All belts are the same across the different packages. If you are just entering the sport and not sure how immersed you'll be, then we suggest the starter kit. You always have the option of purchasing accessories a la carte. If you are looking to train often and want a complete kit, then we suggest our Fully Loaded Kit. We also have a Custom Build Kit which essentially allows you to build your own kit to include the necessary accessories you desire on your range belt.
We recommend double folding the slack into the keeper (stretch nylon piece) once inserted through both sides of the buckle.
All exchanges will incur a fee for reshipment plus the adjusted cost for the difference in item. Buyer is also responsible for return shipping fees.

Orders placed outside of the United States, including U.S. governed territories will be canceled. As well, all unconfirmed addresses will be canceled. Note: All orders ship for free within the U.S.
This is a personal preference. If unsure, any holster with a 1.75" or greater opening should be able to fit onto the belt.
