The best belt for carry I've found yet is the Kore brand. Its nice and stiff and will adjust 1/4" at a time.

It looks more modern than a lot of other gun belts out there, and it has a Cobra brand buckle, so you don't have to undo your belt to drop your pants. You can quickly latch and unlatch it. I highly recommend checking them out.
Do you have a link to that? If not I can use my google fu.

If it alarms the metal detector you will... A belt with a metal reinforcement will probably set it off. A thick leather gun belt probably won't.

I've got THIS ONE with polymer inserts and a titanium buckle, which magically doesn't set off metal detectors.
They're located here in Phoenix, too.

Hank's spring steel core belts. I can carry anything strapped to my belt that I need to.
Only problem with Hank's belts is that the thickness might cause you to modify a holster or two to so they belt can fit the slots.

Ares Ranger with Cobra buckle for me. It's $$ but been running it for a little over 7 years and still functions just as it did when new.

Re: Best Gun Belt I’ve found
I just picked up two belts. The first was a leather steel core from
https://www.daltechforce.com/collection ... -core-belt
Wow .. what a hunk of belt and I thought a bargain at the price. The belt is basically a hoop that lives around your waist and I cant see what you would hang from it that would make it uncomfortable and its really sharp looking so it doesnt scream tacticool. Just looks like a really really nice belt. Shipping was included and they throw coupons and specials now and again. They just had 10% off for the independence day weekend.
I have paid $60 and more for regular ol belts when i worked outside the home. Nice deal and great belt .. I like it so much I bought a Wilderness 5 stitch on ebay to use when I play near water or am crawling around fixing bikes.
If you dont mind waiting, ebay has some good deals on lightly used wilderness belts. The one I got doesnt look like it was ever used and I got it for under $40 shipped. It looked like it came from the shop!
With America growing fast I guess people outgrow them and then sell them off. The wilderness is nice but I can still get some bobble at the holster since I prefer OWB holsters. There is zero bobble with the daltech and I tend to carry heavy guns. Where the wilderness shines is in the micro adjustability, it is a bit more comfortable due to being much more flexible and if you get it used its fairly inexpensive and does a far better job of holding your stuff up than a walmart belt.
At full price though ... I think its about $55 and at that cost ... even though the daltech is 10 bucks more .. they are not in the same class in looks or in gear holding ability but much of it depends on your lifestyle.
Edited to add
The Daltech didnt seem to have any type of sealer. I am glad it didnt have some acrylic but it does seem that left naked it may get stained. I would recommend a good paste wax before I started using it regular. I make my own but it did seem to get sucked right in on my first pass so I buffed and did another pass. Makes the leather look even sweeter and will help against regular water dropplets and sweat some.

No you won't. I wear my Wilderness belt through TSA metal detector and never have to take it or anything else off. I travel between 6 and 10 flights a year and have for around 25 years. Had problems before Pre-Check but smooth sailing since I got it 7 or 8 years ago.
