@Willjr75, this is what I'm talking about when I say that a belt sags. This is my current belt, its an actual gunbelt.
see that big dip in the middle? Thats just from the weight of an S&W Shield carried in an IWB Crossbreed Mini Tuck. This same belt also allows my PPQ in its DeSantis Speed Scabbard OWB holster to roll outboard and print. These issues would be much more pronounced if I were using a regular belt, even a quality thick one. Add to all this my intention to add pistol mag pouches, AR15 pouches, a dump pouch and a small IFAK, and maybe even a water bottle, to my belt for training classes and its obvious that I needed a better, stiffer belt. I belive this scuba webbing one will fit the bill while also being at home for EDC wear as I EDC my current gunbelt sans pistol, ect.

Here's a belt holster combo that just hit my email. I might try one of the holsters and Mag carrier out. I'm not a web belt fan but that's just me.

I can't tell with the pooch in the way?
The "Um, what ams you doings" look he or she has is funny though.
Maybe its because you carry AIWB, or maybe its because you are skinner than me, but I definitely need a better belt. I'll post a pic of my intended training rig when I get home and I think you'll see why.
Man I've bought so much shit to get ready for my new training endeavours. Its all stuff I shoulda had to begin with though. And much of it has use outside of training. Except for maybe the Magpul breech gloves, but I figured if I ever have to punch an antifa in the face the knuckle armor will put on some extra hurt. That and my old mechanix gloves are all worn out.

I also don't hang other stuff on my belt and I cinch it tight enough where the gun doesn't move. My magazines go in my empty front left pocket.
And it's a he. Don't ever call him a she to his face!

You have expensive tastes my friend. I prefer 14.99 at Wally World.
I prefer not to have my belt cinched too tightly, very uncomfortable when sitting, which I do all day every day obviously. And I have so much other stuff in my pockets I don't wanna put mags in there too. I keep my phone (all by itself with nothing else so it doesn't get scratched) keys (great big ol mess of keys), pocket knife(s), flashlight(s), change, random receipts and other incidental paperworks, gums/mints, wallet, load log, pen(s), garbage and God knows what else in my pockets. Anything I can move onto the belt would be great! 'Cept the phone, I've tried that, don't like it, its awkward and uncomfortable to have a big rectangle on my side.
I seem to lately and I'm not made of money so my collection grows very slowly. The belt itself was only $50 which seems in the normal range for a gun belt.
So you'll never carry a Glock?
Oh, I might be giving Glock another chance what with all the Gen 5 hype going on. I want to be able to chant "One of us, one of us, one of us, one of us, one of us, one of us, one of us, one of us, one of us" with everyone else.

I will wait until they make another 26 in FDE for the Gen 5.
I'd be content with the 19. Very versatile size. I would like to see Glock add the front serrations to the 5 like they apparently did for the 4.

I prefer the 26. I can make it a 19's size by adding a 19's grip and a sleeve. I cannot make a 19 a 26's size and wear it on an ankle.
I hate pinching the shit out of my hand on mag sleeves, nor do I think I'd like a pistol jangling around on my ankle. To each their own.

I don't have a use for a full sized handgun so I really don't need one. An 11 round concealable gun is all I need. It can even be used on a battle belt.
I'm wondering how much influence NYS laws have on your tastes? Your dog seems to be really into gun gear, do you ever take him shooting?

So I just got my second spare Blackhawk CQB riggers belt in black in the mail today. I have a black 511 edc trainer belt that works decent too, but part of the alloy buckle lock sometimes will fall out of its slots when you un-feed the belt and take it off which is annoying to put back on, so I've switched. I've been wearing this Blackhawk belt for one year straight at least and it's the greatest belt I've ever used in my life. Strong as hell, doesn't get loose, and it's just been super durable as hell. I'm a big fan of the looks and the parachute buckle for other things to clip onto. It's very lightweight and is double the thickness where my kydex holsters fit appendix. Couldn't ask for a better belt, and now I've got another brand new one just in case for stupid cheap.
You could get him something like this, though maybe a .32 Seecamp would be better suited for the little fella.

Holy hell! My lizard could swallow that dog if he wasn't an herbivor.
Should I take a picture of him next to my gun belts? haha

When the Unsafe Act happened, I got sick. I sold my AR, SKS, Keltec KSG, Mini 14, and an XDS. I bought a Glock 26 and a carbine and enough ammo for a long while. They really sucked the life out of me. Even when I go to Florida now, I no longer shoot like I used to.
My dog follows me around. I can't take a shit without him following me. Lol!
Terriers are tough little bastards.Holy hell! My lizard could swallow that dog if he wasn't an herbivor.

You should see this little guy at the dog park. He's no slouch. Thinks he's a big dog.

That's the problem. They think they're tough and they think they're big.

Some big dogs think so too and back off. Lol. It's the funniest shit ever.
I completely understand, I felt the same way. Between unSAFE act and being dirt ass poor my passion for shooting just fizzled right out. But since I moved to a free state its roared back in full force! I despite averaging less than 1 day a month of shooting I think my ammo expenditures are approaching what it was in my Army days!
If'n I ever get a truck dog I want a Rat Terrier. The are cool, goofy little dogs.

I never used to be a dog guy but the Mrs. really wanted one. Now this little guy is my best friend. They have emotions like children. You should get one.
I used to always have dogs. But Crete will charge me a $700 deposit to have a dog in the truck and it'll cost me a second $700 deposit for my apartment. And I need to be 100% sure I can properly care for a dog while on the road.
