Great information. I would love if you made a video on adjusting the first belt you showed. I picked one up last week thinking it was an M-56... im new to collecting so you’re videos have really helped me

bought the one with the plastic quick release buckle to use with my Bianchi M12 holster for my Beretta 92A1. Will also be attaching some ALICE mag pouches made for M9 mags, as those are the same as the ones for my 92A1. And also bought the Y-harness and several other pouches to put a small fire kit and a first aid kit in. Gonna be my new woods rig!

Usually the fakes just feel lighter and the color is a little off and the lack of tags. Also the buckle will feel cheap.
