Condor LCS Cobra Gun Belt

Great equipment
This belt for the money is extremely good. If you ever want a good belt system and wanted to confirm that this is the option for you I wouldnt hesitate. Considering many of the "professional options" are triple in price.It fits well, does not move (with the exception doing a tumble over a barricade) the cobra buckle works well and has a good connection.The laser cut molle system is tight. You will need to be delicate pittung in molle through cause it so tight initially but works well all the same. My fast mags that I have on were simple to get through with little effort. The padding works well and feels comfortable. If you have the money I would find an inner belt the you can put through your belt loops to attach to this and make it even more stable. Easily adjustable. Use it for milsim and live fire training

Infantry approved. 11B's and 0311's need this.
Used this belt as an Infantry squad leader. My first concern buying this belt was that condor makes cheap gear and cheap gear doesn't survive the field when your a grunt. So I bought the belt right before my unit did an XCTC rotation in Yakima, Wa. hoping I could return it if it broke, but the belt did great. Not only did it survive intact, but it exceeded my expectations. It survived about 3 weeks in a high altitude desert covered in harsh brush and lava rocks. Works fine in sand and heat up to the mid 90s. Judging by how it held up I think it would do well in wet and cold, but I can't be sure yet. I didn't need to modify the belt by reinforcing weak spots or adding suspenders. It just works as is. It also supported a good amount of weight as you can see in the pictures, which were taken after I used it in Yakima. The belt has from left to right. Carabiner for gloves, grenade pouch (for Harris battery), dump pouch, Gerber, 1 quart canteen with cup, IFAK, 100 Rd SAW pouch (used for NVG's), General purpose pouch (for peltors, eyepro, or smoke grenades), 2 more grenade pouches(for headlamp, signal marker, and compass). I have a 34" waist and the small fit me over my uniform and belt at the largest setting. The rubber pad stays in place well the only time I noticed the belt sliding up and down was about 2 weeks into training when I had to tighten it up because I had lost some weight. I may try using it with a velcro inner-belt in the future. If your a grunt you need this piece of gear, this saves space on your chest for ammo and redistributes weight to save your back.

Good product
I purchased this belt for work after using a more expensive version from another company that also sells their own line of affordable body armor. From my initial assessment, the molle webbing seems just as sturdy and durable, albeit perhaps a little less sleek looking in its design. I love that the belt can be adjusted from both sides of the cobra buckle, and that the manufacturer included velcro on both ends of the outer belt to keep it from loosening up. I also like the design used where the excess belt loops BEHIND the webbing, rather than overtop of it like other more expensive designs.I recommend to anyone looking at ordering one of these belts to size up rather than size down (I purchased the medium/large - my waist size is 32), so that you can have the molle webbing as close to the buckle as possible and thus be able to put whatever pouches you need up front as close to center line as possible. With my old belt I had to macgyver a system to mount my mag pouch to the excess non-webbed portion to prevent it from flopping forward as the excess belt is not as rigid.I’ll try out the padded insert that comes with the Condor belt, but I prefer wearing a loop inner pants belt with suspenders and I anticipate that I will ultimately end up going that route. Nice to have that option included if that is your preference. The cobra buckle seems sturdy - I’m never going back to those cheap plastic clips on the traditional nylon duty belts unless I’m required to do so!

Sturdy belt
It’s a sturdy belt. Very comfortable. Buckle mechanics are very precise. It’s a smidge bigger than I had hoped with no way to downsize. I wear a 36/38 and got the XL. Maybe I should have gone L?

Loving my condor kit setup
Wanted an affordable kit setup for recce hikes in the PNW so I started checking out condor. So far have tried chest rig, belt, 3l water bladder, pack and various other pouches. Not been disappointed at all.Belt: ordered what my waste size was and it ran big, accepted return quickly and ordered next size down. Fits perfect. Molle, has inner velcro belt, live the quick detach buckle.Stitching well done. Between IFAK, drop holster and retention system, magazine pouches, drop pouch and tourniquet while hiking rough terrain in wet weather is still holding strong.

Great Value
I’ve been using this for several months for actual duty that involves me patrolling through pretty dense brush. It’s held up well. No this is not super sturdy, no this does not “lock” in place with an inner belt. But it’s not trying to be that. It comes off and on easily though which is important to me when I want to completely take off all my gear. If you just need something for the range or other classes and don’t need something super sturdy, this is more than enough. But if you wanna convince yourself you need to spend $150 for something you’ll hardly use, go for it.

Perfect Addition
Bought for a 44 inch waste ( Large/X-Large: 46.5” - 50.5" Long, Waist 38”-40” LCS Cobra Tactical Belt 121175 ) fits perfectly. Purchased in Aug 2021 and wear daily.Solid construction has a gel filled inner liner that really improves the wear time and comfort. ( Gel insert can be easily removed so you can run the belt normally ). This is a real improvement to the other tactical bets that I own. If you carry for law enforcement or open carry this is the belt for you. Its built like a tank ( American ) Also a great outdoor tool belt.For the price point ($75.00) you can't beat it. Will be buying another.
