Members TimberWolf Posted February 3, 2011 Author Members Report Posted February 3, 2011 Hey Sixer, thanks for your post. The bullet loops are woven through slots in the belt, but to keep the loops close, you go up thru the slot, then back down thru the same slot before proceeding to the next one. The other method is stiching the loops on, but I don't like the sewn style- too easy to screw up the belt with misplaced stiches. The slotted/woven kind generally fits the bullet better in my opinion. Quote
