LOW BUDGET LOADOUT |TACTICON ARMAMENT Battle Belt Elite| (Coyote Brown) 

Thanks for the comment and support! Yea, I am certainly mindful of the excessive amount of times I use the word "uh" and "ummm" in my videos lol. I also have a terrible habit of using a specific word or words to almost a cringy level of repetition. These are things I am working on as I grow the channel. One thing that some people tend to take for granted is understanding how difficult it can be to essentially talk to a camera in an empty room as if it were a person or group of people. It is definitely a bit unnatural and tends to throw me for a loop sometimes lol. Thanks for the sub!

Thank you very much for the comment and support! I try to provide an honest look at some of the good budget friendly options available so that people know they don't necessarily have to drop hundreds or thousands of dollars in order to be properly prepared! Thanks again!

Thanks for the comment and support! That was the basic idea I had when creating the channel. The idea was to provide a channel where the average every day guy can come to review budget friendly gear and get an idea what might or might not work for them and their budget! I hope my content is helpful! Thanks again!

Thanks for the comment! Amen to that! The belt is super comfortable and easy to put on in a hurry. I am definitely a fan of Tacticon Armament and honestly think they are doing right by making quality tactical products for the average guy looking to get started.

Thanks for the comment!! I certainly agree that Tacticon Armament has amazing products for sure! I am very impressed with the quality of their gear while also staying within a budget friendly price! I am looking into their optics as well for purchase down the line from both my real steel and airsoft guns!

Thanks for the comment and advice! I will look into that down the line when I make adjustments to my Loadout and try to apply the advice to hopefully set it up in an overall more functional manner. Thanks for the input!

Thanks for the support! Damn you ain't lying! That's quite a bit of Tacticon gear you got! I honestly really do like Tacticon and how honest and cool Jake and Nolan comes across in their podcast! What sold me on their gear was actually their RU-vid channel. Their videos and shorts are pretty damn funny. Let me know what you're think of the holster when you get it! It has its pros and cons but is a decent Safariland knock off.

Thanks for the Support! The best case is if S.H.T.F I will have a little bit of fat reserves to help me avoid immediate starvation. Hahahahaha

Thanks for the comment and support! Honesty is always the best IMO. No better way to be but honest!

Thanks for the comment and support! Yea I think it likely just varies depending on the person. But MOLLE can be a pain in the ass sometimes so I can see why some guys may avoid using it even though their belt has MOLLE Thanks again for the comment and support!

Thanks for the comment and support!!

Thanks for the comment and support! Tacticon does indeed have a lot of great gear and optics!

Thanks for the comment! Yea I feel Tacticons quality is very much a middle of the road to beginner level when it comes to their gear. It's perfect for anyone who doesn't quite have the Gucci gear money but wants to get something to train in or with that is decent quality enough to last until they eventually possibly step up to more high end.

Thanks for the comment and recommendation! I will certainly keep that in consideration moving forward as I make minor adjustments to my loadout.

Thanks for the comment and support!

Yeah after spending like 1500 on my aero precision rifle my wife was not wanting me to spend a bunch more so I use similar budget loadout gear like tacticon, eagle ind or condor

Yea same here. My fiance hounds me about my gun or gear purchases so anywhere I can save a buck I try to. It's one of the motivating factors for creating the channel. I was beginning to really get into tactical gear and airsoft as a hobby and I was astounded by how expensive a lot of the Gucci gear was. So I did a bit of research and found all these great clone options for half the price if not less. So I decided to share the wealth by making this channel and featuring these items on it.

Thanks for the comment and support! I appreciate the sub! I hope you enjoy the content!

Thanks for the comment and advice. Yea I realized the mags were facing the wrong way after I posted the video and had a few comments pointing it out as well. Sometimes I admittedly don't double check my mag configuration when indexing my mags into my battle belt and or plate carrier when filming the B-roll footage for my videos. I gotta make a better habit of checking the configuration before filming Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for the comment and support! I truly appreciate it! I have looked into horizontal facing or angled Mag holders from companies like AXl and Dara. I haven't yet pulled the trigger on setting up a belt that way just yet but I may decide to experiment sometime in the future and see how I like it. I am still working on a lot of the core fundamentals using a normal vertical holder setup so I think when I get to a point where that becomes complete muscle memory I will begin to introduce angle and or horizontal positioning holders and start working those components into muscle memory. Thanks again for the comment!

Thanks for the comment and advice based on your own personal experiences with some of the budget friendly stuff! I can certainly agree with a huge portion of what you have experienced when buying and using budget gear available on the market. It really is kinda a shot in the dark sometimes when dealing with the good budget friendly stuff and suffering through the bad. That's what I am attempting to provide with a lot of the content on my channel. To at least offer a showcase of the good budget stuff vs the bad to hopefully inform beginners like myself on what to consider and what to avoid and to provide budget friendly alternatives to the high end Gucci Gear. Tacticon Products can sometimes be hit or miss depending on what you are looking to get. I do agree that some of their Battle Belts are more flimsy than I like but their plate carriers are great (Especially the Battle Vest Elite aka Agilite K-19 clone/ Knockoff). Buy once cry once is always the preferred logic with gear but sometimes new guys getting into the tactical and personal protection space tend to not know where to start and will often jump right into buying the gucci gear (sometimes taking a long time to finally build a loadout due to the price of some stuff). Hopefully at least providing some of these budget friendly alternatives it can hopefully help new guys build a loadout faster and save some money for training and bullets lol. Thanks again for the comment!

@@TacticalNewbie101 my pleasure I’d love to do a live with you if you have the time, I’ve run their plate carrier for 2.5 years and I like I just upgraded sort of to something else but the one thing about stacking budget stuff if after you cycle through you suit up a few fellas if need be. All great points I think were both at similar stages, lastly for the money it’s damn near impossible to beat the Kore Battle belt, I did a video about it on my channel. Hopefully hear back from you soon man! Take care !

Thanks for the comment! I am pretty sure I weaved the holster into the belt correctly but now you have me curious hahahah. I am gonna see if it can be weaved the other way at some point this week and I will touch back with the results. Thanks again!

Thanks for the comment and advice! I will certainly add that to my IFAK! Thanks again!

Thanks for the comment! The holster when compared to a legitimate Safariland is obviously a lower quality clone/ knockoff but still serves its intended purpose and is of a decent quality comparable to any Kydex plastic holster. I never really understood the knock on calling something bad because it's "airsoft gear". Most regular air softer's or milsim guys are getting more reps with their equipment then the average Gucci gear officinado paying top price for high end gear and just letting it chill in their gun room or closet. Overall I think this holster is a great intro into Safariland without yet paying the Safariland price upfront. Gives you a reliable holster with the look to then down the line save for the Safariland to replace it with. My holster specifically is holding up great! I run it in training and airsoft and hasn't failed me yet. Hope that helps!

Thanks for the comment! So far my belt is holding up fairly well but I would definitely be the first person to admit that a good portion of "budget" belts are generally best utilized as a starter belt before going Gucci or a back up belt to something more Gucci. It really is a balancing act when dealing with budget gear. The biggest thing to take into consideration should generally be how much does someone plan on using a budget belt/ gear and to what degree of training ( low damage instances like dry fire and normal range training vs something a bit more hardcore like shooting or tactical competitions, milsim events, multi day training seminars or actual duty use). If someone has the funds and can afford a more Gucci set up that is certainly the best option. But if money is tight and they want to get out there and train ASAP go budget to start IMO.

Thanks for the comment and support!!

Thanks for the comment! I myself do not own the Elite V2 belt but have seen great reviews for it. Being biased I would say The Tacticon Battle Belt is good overall because it can be ran both over the pants with a pad or in the pants with the velcro inner belt. So that alone gives you a bit of wiggle room for which you can run the belt. So for that I would suggest the Battle Belt over the Elite V2.

Thanks for the comment! I will be honest and admit that the plastic is not as high grade as my friends legit Safariland (Haven't gotten a legit one for myself just yet). But with that said it holds up pretty well under fair abuse and use. It has basically held up to everything I have put these holsters through aside from a direct fall or dive on the holster or holster side. So if you are looking for something "Safariland like" without dropping the Safariland dollars then this will do as a good training interim holster until you get the real thing. The only other con is the Locking mechanism is not the best and there is a bit of wiggle room. But I read some reviews and some guy installed sticky fuzzy mesh inside or some silicone puddy inside to fill some of the empty space and apparently that works. Haven't had the desire to try that myself yet though.

Thanks for the comment! Yes I do! JFFCESTORE Drop Leg Holster amzn.to/3PGBLWo The link is also on the video description!

Thanks for the comment! The holster for this loadout has a QLS fork interlock system. If your Taurus holster has QLS compatibility all you need to do is remove the 3 mounting screws that attach the QLS fork to the existing holster, then remove whatever belt attachment system the Taurus holster has. Once that is done take the fork connector and screws and mount it on your Taurus holster. If compatible once mounted your good to go and just have to slide the QLS fork (now attached to the Taurus holster) back into the receiver plate. If your Taurus holster is not compatible to the fork you can possibly retrofit the QLS fork into the holster but really it just depends on the Taurus holster manufacturer and where the holsters screw holes are located (if they have any) Most holsters are generally QLS compatible but it's hard to know for sure without seeing the holster myself. I hope this offers a bit of help my friend!

@@TacticalNewbie101 with the holster that comes with the belt how to make the leg straps stop going down while walking I haven’t bought the belt yet I just trying to find ways where the holster leg straps from moving

I ran my leg strap behind the QLS receiver plate that is attached to the drop leg belt loop platform. To do that I removed the QLS receiver plate screws to pull the plate from the drop leg loop platform. Then positioned the leg strap on the loop platform and re-installed the QLS receiver plate back onto the loop platform and screwed back in the screws. You may have push down on the receiver plate a bit when first reinstalling the mounting screws but once they are in and screwed tight, the receiver plate and the belt loop platform pretty much sandwich the leg strap into place and it doesn't budge. I hope that helps!

Thanks for the comment! Unfortunately that is the major downside to these budget safariland clone holsters. They are unfortunately only manufactured to fit a few of the super common pistols (glock 19, 17 and I think Sig P320) I don't think they have any that will fit the P365 macro but I will look into it if I can find any in the next few days and report back

@@TacticalNewbie101 I appreciate your response!

Thanks for the comment! They can be used for both Airsoft or Range. It's really up to you in what application you decide to run it.

Thanks for the comment. What exactly makes an airsoft holster an airsoft holster? This holster holds the Glock 19x airsoft pistol no different than the Glock 19x real steel pistol. Is there a difference in quality to this holster compared to the legit Safariland holster? Well yes. But for those who are just getting involved in the tactical space (or on a budget) and want something Safariland like that doesn't cost $250+ dollars for a holster, well this is a perfect option. Don't let the "TactIcool influencers" fool you on the "more expensive is always better" logic. This holster can perfectly serve the purpose it's intended to (especially for those that may need something ASAP while saving up for the legit Safariland).

@@TacticalNewbie101 more heavy duty, better grip for your firearm lock fits in, heat, and better material. Like the rating for firearm and airsoft is different. You are ready to battle, it going bang on optical, rolling on the ground, draw it in and out after shooting intensively, the last thing you want to worry about is your holster cant hold up it, because it meant to airsoft, you are you complaining at that time. You. Other stuff i dont mind but holster and the belt must be perfect and secure. You are talking about battlefield gear here. And this is just my opinion, for me it a must

So you don't run, jump, roll around, crawl, draw in and out multiple times after shooting intensely in airsoft? Don't get me wrong, I will never claim these holsters are duty rated or good enough to take to legitimate battle. But..... Airsoft for the most part is a pretty physically demanding war game that generally is more physically demanding in nature than any run of the mill day at the range. So if it's good enough for the physically demanding gameplay of airsoft I think its safe to say it's good enough for any normal Joe just starting out to train with at the range while they save up for the Gucci upgrade. I'm not telling guys this holster is better than Safariland. But.... This holster is better then having no holster to start with while they save up for the perfect duty rated holster that they will likely only use at the range and maybe if they are serious enough use some more extensively in firearms training with an instructor.

@@TacticalNewbie101 haha you funny bro, you showing the battle gear, to regular owb or iwb holster, it on purpose to tactical used. Ready for war, outbreak gear and just because i need to save 30 bucks, now i cant use it as intending for, that make alot of sense.

No offense dude but don't presume or pretend like you have any clue as to the intentionality of my channel or my videos. It's my channel and my videos so the only person who has any idea as to the intention is me. Period. The channel is legit called "Tactical Newbie" which is about as obvious an example that the aim of the channel is for those who are not necessarily "tactical professionals" or "experts". The segment is called "Low Budget Loadout" which again is a super obvious example of a segment designed as the title entails (to build a LOW BUDGET LOADOUT). if your goal is to see more high end milspec gear feel free to take a look at my Gucci Gear segments or feel free to go watch Garand Thumb, Administrative Results, Dirty Civilian etc. Don't mean any disrespect but your criticisms are from far left field and totally off base. I recommend watching more of my videos before you assume you know who or to what audience my channel is directed to. Hope you understand. Side note. Tactical Gear is not just used for warfare. There are a ton of guys on RU-vid and other social media who use gear for the primary purpose of training. Low Budget Loadout is a segment for the average guy who might be on a budget but wants to get started with tactical training/ gear. Obviously anyone who is in law enforcement or the military is not going to be concerned about buying budget gear for training.
