Tactical load bearing belts have become quite a hot item in recent years. Shooters now have a comfortable middle ground in between “full fighting gear” and “mags in your pants pockets”.

Courtesy of Breach Bang Clear Review: The Kraken Roll Brian Montgomery Part of life on the road – and just life in general now – is owning, and charging, eleventy-five different “devices,” most of which do the exact same thing, just at different dimensions.
