Hi, I was wondering what the general opinion on the store WHAT PRICE GLORY is. Specifically there M1923 Cartridge Belts. in the description they have posted on there website they say that theres extend to 48 inches to "fit the bigger sizes these days" and i was wondering if these belts are still a viable choice for someone like me, with a 32 inch waist. anybody bought these and been satisfied? and if youve bought anything else from them i would be glad to here it. thanks

I have to say of what I know there products are good quality other then there belts. The only company I know of that makes good cartridge Belts is At the Front and WWII Impressions. All other companies belts the grommets fall off.

The grommets don't fall off? Are the grommets as big as an original one?

Yeah same with me, I bought a brand new one from Jerry about a year and a half ago, have had your usual weight on it (carlisle, E-tool, canteen, bayonet) and haven't had any problems yet. I think its really hit or miss.

all my experiences with wpg have been amazing. my pistol belt i have used (very roughly) in the field and its still holding up great. i don't think there is a product i have bought from them that i haven't liked. the last order was a little funky though, i live in Oregon, they are in California. But they shipped the package to Tennessee on the way to my house.!? but i still got it in 2 days.

I highly recommend their Brit gear! They have a lot of good reproductions as well as lots of original stuff too! Their delivery has been really quick, even when items are shipped from the United Arab Emirates.

New addition to this thread... well that pistol belt I spoke of earlier in this thread is a piece of crap. 6 grommets have ripped out already, and the 36 suspenders I bought were an awful yellow color, I ended up replacing all clips with NOS clips, and taking the adjusting hardware on the back straps off, and making my own. the ones they use are made of sheet metal as thin as two layers of pop can. I also re-dyed them. All I can say was make the right choice, buy ATF.

any one got any of there brit gear? There brit stuff is good and I have a ton of it. But it really is a monopoly. Other than WPG and evilbay there are not a whole lot of options for US based, Brit reenactors.

regarding my personal experience as a french re-enactor / airsoft player, WPG has a good customer service and is reliable. the quality of their gear is not always as good as ATF (which is one of the best, indeed), but is better than a lot of crap you can find elsewhere.
of course it depends also of the hard use or not you will put on them in airsoft skirmishes.
