Boomstick Bruce Posted November 1 Posted November 1 Well my new Mernickle WB rig showed up today and, well, the mag pouches are on the wrong side, it's a left handed belt and I'm right handed...lol... Only I have this kind of luck. Other than the fact it's useless to me, it looks great...lol... I already sent them an email. Thankfully I'm done shooting WB until March so there's plenty of time to get the belt i need. 1 Quote
JJ Posted November 1 Posted November 1 Thinking the belt is buckled on your backside and the holster is supposed to be placed next to t he shotgun shell holders. Could be wrong. Been wrong before, will be wrong again. However, it is a nice looking rig. J.J. 2 Quote
Garrison Joe Posted November 1 Posted November 1 Bigger problem - Looks to me that they made you a right-handed holster! I have cowboy and WB belts made with NO built in ammo loops or mag holders. All such holders are on slides to be easily adjustable, but locked down with a Chicago screw providing clamping pressure. Maybe the next one you will want to do that, so it can be adjusted to match your comfort needs and shooting styles. good luck, GJ Quote

Not sure how I like that though. Now I feel stupid that I sent them a message that "they" screwed up...lol... oh well, at least now I have a funny story to tell at the next match... 1 Quote
Eyesa Posted November 1 Posted November 1 Easy mistake I think. I don't often see mens belts buckle in back. But there are some! 1 Quote
Garrison Joe Posted November 2 Posted November 2 (edited) Ummm, still is a RH holster, unless your photo is reversed. Which it is not, as there is no thumb safety showing on right side of frame as it would look if photo got reversed. GJ Edited November 2 by Garrison Joe Quote

Which it is not, as there is no thumb safety showing on right side of frame as it would look if photo got reversed. GJ I'm right handed, I thought the belt was for a lefty but it's not. It's designed to be buckled in the back which up until I put my 2023 state championship buckle on it, I didn't like that. Now I can buckle it in the back with almost no trouble with the new buckle on it. I've spent some time drawing and doing mag changes and wow this is so much better than the rig I made from old duty gear I've been using for 5 years! I've cut 2-3 seconds off my mag change times! Man I love this set up! 2 1 Quote
