Viking Tactics Raze Tactical Belt

I recommend buying a size bigger than what you want. I’m a 34 wast and 1st ordered the M. It for good but not great. That was with no gear on the belt. You should take that under consideration. Just got the L in fits way better.

After years and alot of money I finally found a battle belt I enjoy. I have uses just cobra belts, condor belts, regular duty belts, and hsgi belt combos. I was always a fan of the hsgi but run it with a plate carrier was difficult. The bottom of the carrier would hit belt and hinder my movement in sertain position. So I disided to get a inner and outer belt set up and couldn’t be happier. After run a course in full kit my mobility impoved hips didnt hurt and I never had to adjust it. Im a 38 to 40in waist I went for the xl belt. The outer belt is perfect didnt need to adjust it but the inner belt is a tad short I got about 4 1/2 in of hook and loop hooked on but I wish I had just a little more. The inner belt has never loosen while running or just wearing it. The molle system is not a true molle. My hsgi taco pouch (2xar15) and hsgi blowout kit kit sung on the molle. I run my holster and tourniquet holster on the outside between the two belts. My dump is condor and doesnt really fit as tight as I would like it but that more then likely due to its condor. I would recommand this product to anyone who wants a battle belt and not break the bank with other higher dollar items.

easy to use and put together. It’ll take a little to get the right fitment but once you do you’re ready to rock and roll.

Viking Tactics had been a brand that I support and recommend regularly. The stuff they make is always priced well and functions superbly. This belt is no exception. The belt is similar to the offering from Gray Ghost Gear, but there’s a major trade off. Before listing the trade off, here’s some basics that apply to either. Both are approximately 1¾in belts that feature a loop lined inner belt and a hook lined outer belt. The inner belt is designed to be worn as a standard belt through the loops of the pants worn. The outer belt is then secured by merely wrapping the hook inside onto the loop outside of the inner belt. This secures your pants and kit to your waist, locking around your belt loops to keep the battle belt secured as close to your waist as possible. Because of the width of the belt, both have very narrow molle loops on the top and bottom, which can be troubling for some. I find that the width is acceptable as it is a standardized belt that donning and doffing is extremely easy.

Now, the tradeoff. GGG’s inner belt is longer and therefore fits better for some of us who have some extra shapes around the waist. The GGG belt also offers webbing around more of the belt. The Viking belt has a mounting loop for anyone using it as a harness, so there’s a tradeoff of webbing there. The Viking belt also has a looser loops which makes mounting gear exponentially easier. The don’t stretch, so there’s no fear of gear getting slop. So the question becomes, do you want an inner belt that may be a squeeze to work and lose some webbing, or do you want a belt that doesn’t have a cobra buckle, has overly snug molle, and cannot be used for climbing? For me, the easier to use molle, the cobra buckle, and a loop that I use for hanging gloves is the meaningful tradeoff.
