    Animals arent made of milk jugs full of koolaid.
    You, sir, have clearly never been attacked by an enraged kool-aid man. If you had, you wouldn't make such flippant remarks.

    Observe the terror of the killer kool-aid:

    Exclamation *Gun Belt Update*

    Hey all,
    I took the first gunbelt to a trusted friend today for some criticism and was told, plain and simple, "Nice belt, but too light for any kind of real use." He went on to say that, if you were only wearing the belt to the range once in a while, then maybe it would be ok. But as it stands right now he felt it to be too light for long term use, saying it would soon twist and sag under the weight of a mares leg and holster. He also stated that what was really needed was a double layer of leather to stand up over the long run. This has caused me to rethink my approach and manufacturing processes. There will be a change in the prices as I will not offer a single layer belt for actual carry use. If someone wanted one then I will make it, with the understanding that I DON'T recommend it for rough use.
    I will keep this one for show and tell purposes. This weekend I will start again on a proper, double layer, belt for heavy usage. Hopefully I will be making templates for holsters soon too.
    Sorry for any delay, just wasn't right to sell something not up to the task.
    Cheers,
    spacesaver

    yea its too bad all that fantastic work went to waste but at least he found that out and is being honest about it!

    Thanks spacesaver, look forward to the next belt looking just as good, no pressure

    Good thinking Spacesaver.

    Maybe some stiff material, plastic etc could even go between the layers. Galco does this with their belts.

    And Foxer, what round would you recomend for Koolaid defence?

    Flamethrower and a glass-break hammer as backup.

    But - as there are some legal issues around edc'ing a flamethrower, I'd reccomend a mare's leg in 44 mag with 240 grainers - and don't stand near any walls

    You forgot one small thing.

    "Oh YEAH!!!"

    The wall collapses, in comes the big jug.

    "ka-shook-shook BOOM!" you blast him.

    "POP!" he explodes. Koolaid gushes everywhere...

    And your shoes get died red!

    Need gumboots when encountering koolaid man. Maybe a hat too, or you could get an Emo hairdo...
