A quick warning, I have been an amputee for 40 years or so, During that forty years i have hunted hiked canyoned abseiled cycled for most of the time i worked as a builders labourer, for that 40 years my teeth where used as my missing limb, the warning is that if you are limb compromised and have damage to your face/mouth you may find yourself struggling to open vacuum packaging as i have discovered over time, hence now i keep one dressing out of the first layer of packaging and set my tourniquet set up for one handed use tho it took some time and testing to find the best way to pre-setup the tourniquet. if you have already thought of this all is well with your world. ps i enjoy your content.

Law enforcement in the 90s. We had belt keepers to hold the two belts together. Love the idea of velcroing them together. Dang keepers took forever to get belt off......think Mexican for lunch.....:) Keep up the great info Chad. God bless you brother.

Just wanted to say I love your content and philosophy on things! Also you’re one of the few KZfaq guys who isn’t constantly trying to sell viewers something. Thanks for all the great shit!

Man I love you Chad you and your family. Feels like family every time I see you. May the Almighty's sweet Grace always be with you.

Look this is his way of carrying. To pick away at his content is crap. To add to it is great. This guy is a soldier just like me and frankly I’m glad he’s sharing. Negative posts need to go away

Great info Chad. Simple to remember where everything is where it needs to be and to access the equipment quickly.

I have been scouring the internet for a sensible setup video such as this. I am a combat veteran from many years back, so I have a firm idea of how I would prefer my belt setup to be. However, the equipment we had back in those days was light years inferior to what is out there and available now. We always believed, as I am quite sure the troops do now, that more was seldom better; it tended to weigh one down. There was enough necessary kit to wear, so why in God's name would we want to lug around more than was absolutely necessary? I understand the ol' two is one, and one is none concept. Sometimes, however, that concept is just not practical, and...can get you badly hurt or killed. You, sir, knocked this out of the ballpark! Thank you for helping me and others like me to take a fresh look at an age-old problem. 👍

Awesome vid! I currently don’t have a battle belt completed but working on it. I appreciate the info! Thanks

Being an infantryman, I like to put my grenades/pyro/charges on my belt rather than on my armor. Walking a lot with grenades or smokes on my sides got pretty old when I was in Afghanistan, so I've elected since then to keep that sort of stuff on the belt line away from my arms. It also helps to keep the torso free of as much bulk if say you're in a turret/sticking out of a hatch of some sort. I have a similar "catch all" pouch around the same side that carries all my irregular sized objects, from star clusters, to water impulse charges and stuff like that. It also is a good place to stick my eye pro, ear pro, fox tails and it sinches up real tight so it doesn't rattle.

simple straight forward video i had pretty much the same set up while in the marine infantry i love the battle belts is takes so much trash off your flak and it makes it nice for movement

Once again, you answered every question I had with building my first warbelt. OUTSTANDING TUTORIAL! THANK YOU

We be payin attention. Great work.

As a former LE, I keep the belt minimal (causes back/mobility issues especially in a car). Gun and mags basically (cuffs, baton and radio if in LE but that's it!). The IFAK and radio go on the chest rig for me, along with rifle mags/admin pouch. Cool video! Cheers

thank you for your service Chadd.

Great information, thanks for sharing Chad.

I like the dump pouch. I hate putting empty mags in my pockets. Nice setup Chadd. 💪🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

Thank you for the info, appreciate it. God Bless you

I sure appreciate you taking the time to share your knowledge with us. Very helpful video. Thank you

Thank you for the Talk.

I’m glad to see you have a multitool. I haven’t seen many people consider that, but it can be handy.

Awesome video as usual…

Great video, I like to be ready when I go to the range to. Keep up the awesome videos. Thank you

I love your shows. I would love to learn more about Navy Seal training weapons. Especially a Glock. And cleaning in combat situations.

Fantastic video 👍 I learned a lot

My preferred go to multi-tool would be Leatherman Surge over the MUT. Doesn’t have the AR carbon scrapper or punch tool but provides more uses for what I need to do over the MUT.

I’m so glad that I found your channel. You inspire me to be a more spiritual person! I’m the complete opposite of the man you are. I’m 66, overweight, and have lived a very sedentary life that I’m looking to change.

My battle belt needs a ragnarok safari so badddddd and my own personal range 😂 Great vid chad. Great info, god bless you and your family in these dark times. 🙏

Thank you for the valuable information!

Great video! Got me thinking about my rifle mags now.

Great stuff

Thank you. Damn fine channel you got here. I like watching it grow. See ya next time 🤙

Thank you. Salute from Switzerland

The Leatherman MUT is awesome, part of my EDC for years and use it everyday at work.

On the same page good content,I had a multi tool when I was on active duty,it was a wave,I have no idea what happened to it on my old battle belt,on my new one had it set up to my needs and was looking at the MUT,finally pulled the trigger on it and it’s on my belt now,was hesitant to spend the money,but it’s a good tool especially for taking down cleaning my rifle..stay safe stay ready..

great info and insight, thank you!!!

great basic setup. i also like to keep a fixed blade knife just behind the holster. awesome video

thanks so much, very helpful.

Along with the multi-tool, I have to suggest a paint can opener. The small hook on the end is perfect for pulling brass out of chambers.

Good setup. Thanks

mid holster is money... makes sense. Night Stakers dont quit. love the motivation hooha.

This channel will get more people eventually (imo). I was watching Garrand Thumb and some those with millions of subscribers, but since finding this, this has been my go to.

Thank you sir

I would like to see kit for a long gun. Also love the channel.

The Fedora that You are wearing is Good Stuff! Thank You Gentlemen.

Thank you for the info.

That's a great set up in a sense less is more. All you need not over crowded

To expand upon the importance of being able to access the IFAQ with both hands in thé even if getting shot in an appendage the temporary wound cavity overpressurizes the nervous system and can easily lead to a temporary paralysis of the entire appendage

God Bless You Chad Keep Up The Good Share 👍👍👍

Thanks man, new subscriber, good content, my belt is a similar setup with the exception on one rifle mag.

im in the process of building out my battle belt. i got a belt and holster ordered. belt is a knock-off of the GBRS belt they have, holster is knock-off Safariland QLS. dont judge me on the knock-offs, inflation is rough these days...and im not actually going to battle, with my battle belt, so figured knock-off gear is good enough. just need to get the rest of the items to finish the belt. so, now i know i just need: IFAK, dump pouch, and some mag pouches.

13:08 Dude, I've had my multitool positioned like that in the back but on my right side and when I fell out the trailer at work I landed on it. That was the only spot on my body that hurt and it hurt for a while like a week

👍thank you

Great setup, mine is almost exactly the same. I don't have a multi tool on mine and I keep another double mag pouch (total of 4 mags) other than that it's the same.

I have an old H harness I use on all belts, sometimes suspenders depending on chest kit. I can’t tell y’all how nice shoulder sharing the belt weight is. Also the suspenders add stability to the belts weight and pull from leg keeper straps keeping everything centered and tight. Get you some and try it. Trust me I’m old.

Thanks for the video. Your setup makes sense, at least to me. I like your thought about the tourniquet. On that note, who makes the one on your belt? Would like to have a look at it to see if suits what I need. Thanks again and keep ‘em coming

LBT still makes that particular LFAK pouch.I use one on my battlebelt. HMC Lander

I've never been a fan of the inner belt being velcro unless it has a sinch buckle to keep it snug around your waist. I use "keepers" to keep the outer belt secured to the inner belt and keeping it in place. It really doesn't take that much more time to get the outer belt off, and it is much quieter than ripping velcro during a tactical event, especially if noise discipline is paramount

A lot like what I had/used. All purpose-built and thought through.

I have the same setup. I only have 1 extra item which is a dog leash with frog clip which is very usefull because I´m a dog handler 😅 Great video!

Nice shooting range.

Battle Belt tips from ZZ Top, what's not to like? Greetings from the UK.

Thanks!

7:00 I have given everyone of my Leatherman away as gifts. I need to keep one for myself. I know some snobby tool people, and they have all appreciated the Leatherman.

Nice. Need to get me some TA50

new to your channel...like the no nonsense commentary, I'm older and two and a half times larger...I need to be a little more flexible in my gear........

Semper Fi

Great video. Killer

I need something fast and light, a bump in the night situation

Checkout soileater tourniquet holder

... I keep the area along the small of the back clear of any gear, the most injuries that police officers have are from slipping or falling on their back and damaging their lower spine, just in case ...

That hat suits you perfect.

Thanks for the video. RLTW!

Where is the intel for that holster set up? That's the kinda thing I need for sure.

A little difficult to sit in a seat with that rig? After years in a cruiser, small of back becomes no man's land. Thanks for the info Frogman!

Nice setup, keeping that front clean, clear ur plates, I need to..re-adjust, no I just need a new belt mines shot

I’m proud of myself, my battle belt is set up just like yours

Make / Model of the pouch you have that tourniquet in? I agree, they must be protected much more than most people do, thanks

Killer hat! Is that a Stetson?

Look …. Billy Gibbons turned Navy seal !!! And He’s Nation Wide !

great video, Love Safari land and leatherman tools, who makes your hat

An old bushcraft guy once told me to call it an automatic thread injector - rather than a sowing machine haha

I dig the ZZ Top vibe.

What about putting your TQ horizontal in front of your holster so that it can be reached with both hands?

The beard aint.messing

Review on the Sar9?? Cheap tank with amazing accuracy

Great info Chadd, can you link the gear? Don't see it in the drop down

What about a flashlight and combat knife?

Shout out to the ZZ Top.hat

I keep 3 rifle mag holsters and 2 pistol mag holster on mine, gunna get a chest rig so i can switch the rifle mag holsters with an ifak

I am enjoying this channel, hairstyle top, hat trend brand

Letherman mutt is the best tool to have in any situation even for EOD haha

My setup is very similar, but I have a dump pouch for mags.

Anyone got a link to that TQ pouch? I’ve been trying to find something like that for way too long

almost the same set up,I use the blade tec with a leg strap,and blade tec belt.,

I make sure my tourniquet is accessible by either hand. With a vest on, I wouldn't be able to reach the left center of my body using the right hand if I had it where yours is.

Was that a cz p10f on your belt? If yes, what do you think about it? I have the p10sc and i love it. Greetings from Greece, love the channel.

Dont forget surplus grenade pouches you can fit 2 cans of Grizzly in one. 😀😀

👍👍

Chad even carry socks on my belt 😂😂 don't laugh my feet are my vehicle

Are you saying the dump pouch is the belt version of the kitchen junk drawer? 🤔 😂😂
