As title I'm looking for a loading belt for psg I've never used one so don't have a preference.

I'm also looking for a holster for a lbr taurus.357

Thanks

There are several loading methods for PSG, with corresponding options for each style. If you're just starting out I'd go with a cheap as you like Pro-dec clip belt, I think Norman Clarke gunsmiths sells them for about £30 and just calls them a 'shotgun belt'. This would facilitate single cartridge loading.

If you want to jump straight in at the deep end, quad-loading is the current fastest method of feeding a tube magazine gun and one of the best rigs for that is Magload Toilet Pro caddies. They come in a variety of sizes from 8 to 32 cartridges and range in price accordingly. You will need to carry approx. 40 cartridges so work from there. Most people favour multiple smaller caddies, rather than a single 32 cartridge beast. 20/20 is popular, as is 12/12/12+8 (the 8 being used to load the gun initially then discarded before you start.

There are a myriad of options between so my suggestion would be to shoot some matches with the cheapest option you can get away with and see what works for others/what you think would work for you. Quite often people will lend you their belt/caddies for you to have a go with.

Hi
Thanks for the info, I'm looking for a magload style belt. Just thought I'd see if there are any used rigs about before I spend a fortune!

This any good for you?
Holds 25 12ga cartridges, velcro fastening.



PM me if interested. I'm at the Imperial for the next week or more but will try to catch up on messages if I can. Just be prepared for no reply until next week, it won't be going anywhere in the meantime.

Magload equipment is covered by a lifetime warranty that carries forward with the OWNER, not just the original buyer so the stuff doesn't normally get THAT much cheaper secondhand, but if you're on Facebook there are multiple UKPSA/practical shooting pages where you can go fishing.

If you're not in a mad hurry Magload always do cracking Black Friday sales on their rigs. I got mine for basically 50% off

Cheers, thanks for that. I don't mind buying a new one but a always up for saving a few ££

A lot of the magload stuff is 3 d printed which is not up to much abuse
