This 1.5 inch wide pistol holster looks good and is much stronger than any department store strap you can buy. It fully supports fairly heavy straps if you tighten it enough. I use it to carry my SIG Sauer P229 both IWB and OWB and I have also used it to carry my P226 MK25 with gun light installed. It fits all of my standard pants, belt loops for jeans and cargo pants/shorts, as well as most of my dress pants. In general I like it. I would have preferred the matte finish of the belt buckle to the polished nickel (chrome) buckle that came with it. It only comes with five spaced strap holes. inches apart. In contrast, my other leather rifle slings (from TheBeltman.net) have seven sling holes spaced about 3/4 inch apart, making them more adjustable. The Beltman product is of much better quality and durability than this Galco belt, and the Beltman also offers a lot more variety, for around the same money (for some models) or a little more (for more exotic models). Both Galco products and TheBeltman.net products are made right here in the USA. Overall I give this Galco belt 3.5 stars out of 5. IMHO not a bad buy.
