Ranger Belt Questions.

[Colt W Knight]

I have never owned a Ranger belt, but have wanted one after I saw one for the first time ( and new what I was looking at). Decided to make one, but I couldn't find any guidelines about the over laps. I just winged it after looking at a few picture.

Couple questions for yall.

1. How long do you make your overlap on the wide part that tucks in behind the belt?

2. Where do you position your buckle in relation to the end of the wide part of the belt?

My over lap is about 2" longer than the 1" strap with the holes punched in it.

The inside opening of my buckle sits flush with the wide end on the other side of the strap

* still need to finish burnish the edges and add a few copper rivets. Belt is 13 ounce latigo I had left over from GPS tracking collars I made for cattle. The 1" straps are 8 ounce veg tan.
