The nylon one. I will say that i've been wearing it tonight and it is definatly stiff and holds everything in place. I would however like a leather belt as well.

If you ever get up to Houston just north of downtown , stop by Top Brass .
You could spend an hour looking at all the great stuff .
They are a 5.11 authorized dealer .
Plus they carry Tru-Spec products .

That will be the 60 day mark? And if I were you I'd do so as well.

It was pictures - not prints. And it's not my fault that they had my application for three weeks before "processing" it.

The clock starts on the day they get the application. That means 11/17 is day 60 for me - despite having to re-shoot the photos.
