G-Code holsters. We know they make great holsters both for duty and military operations, For outback hunting, off-road experience, whatever it is you're going to do, They've got a place for you to put your gun securely into a holster. Attach it to your body or to a vehicle, attach it to a bag or to a belt. They make the Scorpion belt; they make the whole outdoor vest. Pouch, pack—everything you could possibly want, but they also make EDC belts.

And that's what we're going to talk about today. This is the Active Response EDC belt. It has the famous Cobra buckle. We're going to talk more about its features, I'm wearing the EDC Quest belt today. This is a lighter-weight, everyday carry belt, and it's single-layer nylon webbing.

It is stitched, as you might expect, incredibly well. I've. Been at the factory, been in it a couple of times over the years. They do amazing work. Uh, they do the CNC machining for aluminum belt buckles, And this can be anodized black or gray, and the EDC Quest Belt, Again, very lightweight, very comfortable, kind of works with any kind of pants.

Standard belt loops. This is the 1.5-inch, Comes in seven different sizes and colors, tan, black, Or green. Going back to this, a little more rugged, A lot more heavy-duty, honestly active response belt. Again, coming with the official traditional Cobra buckle that everyone knows and loves People love this; it’s a double-layer belt. This is a Cordura laminated, triple-stitched belt.

You can see it’s got a little bit cleaner look. It's not just that nylon webbing. So, on the one hand, Yes, this is more rugged and durable, but it also has a slightly less industrial feel. Tactical look. You can wear this through belt loops, Obviously, you can fish that through there.

You can take this end of the buckle off, then put the belt through, And then put it back on. Uh, what you're going to find is that many people will use this as a very light Shooter’s belt, operator’s belt, or G.O. belt at the end of the day. You have this stage next to your safe. Maybe you put an extra magazine carrier, Put your medical kit there; add a flashlight, put a flashlight there.

Put a holster there for your everyday carry gun, which goes into a quick-access safe. Something goes bump in the middle of night, Very easy to grab this one. Put it on with or without pajamas over clothes without having to worry about going out Through the buckles, and of course, this is a lightweight operator's shooter, again, from a competition standpoint. Could you put this on over another belt that goes through your loops as lightweight duty? Belt?

Absolutely. Um, you want to make sure you understand how to connect this to your system, that it's not Sagging over an extended period of time. But I really like it as an emergency kind of medium-duty belt. And I think that's why it falls in the EDC line from G-code. Again, lightweight, you're going to want Quest.

Medium-duty, much more rugged, much better able to support the weight of your gear as you’re Moving around on the range or during that emergency. That's where you're going to look at the active response belt. Both available from G-Code.
