I bet Safariland just beat him into the dust....I used to see a lot of Ernie Hill holsters get bent going into rollover prone at IPSC matches, but never saw a bent Safariland.
I've still got a Safariland buckleless belt which uses velcro and inside double frogs that I purchased in 1975. I figure I'll find some use for it. One good thing about it-it's good to wear if you're a bass player. No buckle means no scratches on the back of the guitar.
Then again, I still have a Bianchi "matched set": 1.75" belt, Askins Avenger, and two double mag pouches. I bought that for my first IPSC match in '81. I used it once in the last year shooting an IDPA match. It's still a good rig. It got a little loose, so I drilled a small hole through the leather at the front of the trigger guard and screwed in a flathead screw, then cut off the excess point with a Dremel tool. Now I can tighten it up. I did an old "retention test" drill with it just a couple of weeks ago: empty chamber but full mag in my GM, and did a slow somersault with it in the holster. Gun didn't budge.
