For those of you that have your Concealed Carry what kind of Holster Belt do you use? A stander'ed belt just doesn't hold up to the weight . Any help would be APPT.
Ive got my conceal carry but i dont carry one on me.I carry one in my truck.I do have a uncle mikes hip holester though.
I have a nice holster. i Picked up a De-Santis Min slide and love it ,but a common belt just wears and rolls over and leaves the grip hanging over.
get a blackhawk serpa holster. awesome. And get a paddle one also. so you can carry even if you don't have a belt.

This is the one I wear .
Having difficulty in understanding why your belt doesn't hold up to conceal carry? What gun are you carrying, and what belt is being used? I mean if it's a Ruger Blackhawk with 6" barrel, and a 3/4" belt maybe, but I don't think that's the case.

Ahh,
That holster looks nice, but it sure does carry high. Try an IWB holster, and your problem will be solved, or a holster which rides a little lower.

I have a Ted Blocker belt that I have had for close to fifteen years and wear it every day. It has held up well but is getting worn and will probably replace it soon with one from A&G custom gunleather. There are many good belt makers out there and yes a regular dress belt is not stiff enough to support the weight of most guns. A good gun belt will be double thickness and is probably going to cost between $60 and $100.
Thanks everyone, my carry is a Springfield XD40 sub compact love this gun and the holster, just checked on some of the belts and there is a difference in a standard belt and a carry belt like the thin leather belt I wear . Going to do some shopping. A friend of mine gave me a Galls catalog that they get all their public safety gear from. Going to check out some of the other holster too.

That is the EXACT gun I carry. I bought a Cross breed Supertuck holster and a belt. The belt is awesome. It is around $60 and it is THICK. Plus it has velcro on the inside so you can attach the clips and they are not visible. I put it on and forget about it.

Try the Bianchi B9 Belt. You'll love it.
A quality belt made to carry the weight of the holster is a necessity.
For the money I like the Widerness five stitch models.http://www.thewilderness.com/storepinnacle/index.php?p=product&id=2309&parent=142
For a dressier belt there are a lot of choices Beltman is one http://www.thebeltman.net/
But there are a lot of others.
