On the other end of the spectrum, you can spend a couple hundred dollars or more if you prefer a leather belt made from some exotic animal hide. Whatever your price range, just remember,\u00a0the heavier the gun the more rigid your belt needs to be. You&#8217;ll definitely want to take comfort into consideration as well, and if the belt is <em>too<\/em> rigid, you may not want to wear it. After all, the more comfortable the gun belt, the less likely it is to become a hurdle that keeps you from carrying every day.<\/p> <p>As always, if you have any recommendations on a good gun belt, I&#8217;d love to hear them and I&#8217;m sure other shooters would as well.
