Gun Buckles

Kore Essentials offers a wide variety of heavy-duty ratcheting buckles designed to work with our gun belts. Buckles are constructed of either high-grade, zinc alloy, with an electroplated gunmetal, brass, nickel or black powder-coat finish, or solid stainless steel (X3 Buckle is nickel free). The buckle mechanism features our Kore designed and patented, spring-loaded system that's durable, reliable and won't stick. 

All gun buckles enlist the use of 2 set screws (M4 x 7 mm length), and a row of teeth, to securely hold the belts into the buckles. This upgraded system is extremely secure. A 2.5 mm Allen wrench is included with each gun buckle. 

Choose any of our X-series gun buckles (1.5" wide) or beefier Garrison (1.75" wide) styles. The only difference between buckle models is the style & width - the functionality is identical. 

Gun Belts

Kore EDC gun belts feature a 10” virtually indestructible, hidden track with 40+ size positions to adjust with. Now you can precisely adjust your gun belt in small 1/4” increments for a perfect fit. It's the ultimate concealed carry belt for work, play, the range, or even out on the town. 

All our gun belts (leather & tactical) feature our Proprietary Reinforced Power-Core™ center. This unique blend makes our belts sturdy and stiff enough to support your firearm and gear without any sag, yet flexible enough to sit, walk, or move in all day. It's the most secure, comfortable gun belt you will ever wear. 

EDC Leather & Tactical Gun Belts are 1.5" wide and 5 mm thick, and designed for IWB, OWB and Appendix carry situations. EDC Belts come in regular sizes (24" to 54") and XL sizes to fit waist up to 72". Check sizes when ordering. 

Garrison Leather and Tactical Belts are 1.75" wide belts and designed for the range, excursions, training or law enforcement. Due to their width they are not ideal for IWB or Appendix. Garrison Belts come in one size that fits any waist from 24" up to 54". Check sizes when ordering.  

Leather
 gun belts are constructed using 2 full-length pieces of Top Grain Buffalo leather or Top Grain leather and designed to support loads up to a maximum of 6 lbs. for Buffalo Leather and 4lbs. for Top Grain Leather (that's total gear weight). These belts are not designed to serve as tactical or duty belts, but rather EDC belts for work, play, dress, casual.  

Nylon tactical belts are stiffer and more rigid than our leather gun belts, and intended to support heavier loads and more gear. Constructed using Nylon Web outer layer (rated to 500 lbs.), Reinforced Power-Core Center™ and Super-Fiber inner liner for added strength and durability. Tactical belts are designed to support holstered firearms or gear up to a maximum of 10 lbs. (total weight). Due to the stiffness of our tactical belts, they include a Belt Keeper to keep the belt tip flush with your pants.  

Note: 

Gun buckles and belts are NOT interchangeable with any of our Classic Fashion buckles or belts. EDC Gun belts are wider and thicker than our fashion belts.

To trim your 1.5" Gun Belt or 1.75" Garrison Gun Belt to size, follow the instructions or video below. 

*These instructions are not for Dual Belt Systems. For Battle Belts, Duty Belts, Competition Belts, and Executive Protection Belts please refer to these instructions.*

1. On the back of the belt, use the ruler markings to find your pant size. 

2. Add 4 inches for OWB carry, or 6 inches for IWB carry to your pant size. Cut on the mark using a sharp pair of scissors. 

  • For Example: If your pant size is 34" - cut the belt at the 38" mark for OWB carry, or 40" for IWB carry. 
  • If your pant size is close to the maximum size marking DO NOT CUT. Try the belt on first, then trim accordingly.

3. Loosen the 2 set screws on the back of the buckle with included wrench. Insert the cut end of the belt into the receptacle with teeth. 

4. Clamp teeth down firmly and gently tighten the 2 set screws on the back of the buckle until they sit flush. Use caution to ensure the set screws are not overtightened or stripped. DO NOT TIGHTEN SET SCREWS UNTIL THE TEETH ARE FULLY CLAMPED DOWN.

5. Feed belt around waist (L to R), through the buckle and click until snug. 

  • The tip of the belt should extend  around 3 inches beyond your first belt loop.
