Tamrac MAS Belt - Anyone got one? Other options

[AndrewA123]

Hi,

I'm looking at possibly purchasing one of these
http://www.morrisphoto.co.uk/ProductDetails~productID~7372.html and was hoping someone on here could help.

The details everywhere including the Tamrac website, list the belt in 2 sizes Medium and Large only.
The meduim is listed as up to 45". My question being, what size can this go DOWN to??? I've got a Zoom 7 holster and a lens case and i am wanting to get one of these belts, however I'm doubting that the belt will be capable of loosing some 14" in length. I've a 31/32" waist.

Failing this, what other options do I have, apart from using a normal trouser belt which is not exactly comfortable once these are attached.

I have the medium and am 32/33 waist, it does adjust a long way.

Fracster, Thanks thats great news, it looks like the belt has a nice padding to it. Do you find it comfortable ?

Being honest Andrew, I rarely use it as I find my viper vest better for me, I tend to do wildlife only. However, if i`m only taking a small amount of gear,I use it and find it comfortable.I have a couple of the pouches that they do for them as well.

Like I said, if your travelling light, then they are fine,IMO.

Ade.

I use the vest with a couple of lens pods when I want to travel light. It is comfortable but make sure you get the right size or it can rub on the front fastener.

It transfers the weight from your shoulder(s) to your hips, be aware of this, if you carry a lot of weight it can begin to ache after a while.
