Comp-Tac Victory Gear's Push Button Locking mount (PLM) is a handy, low-cost item that attaches a holster or accessory pouches to a belt quickly and easily.
How
The PLM is a gizmo that helps to answer the question: "How to attach your holster or various gear and magazine pouches to your belt in a few seconds?" The PLM solves having to feed your belt through various loops, or paddles that pop off when you try to draw your gun.
The PLM opens with a hinge, like a clam. You attach your holster or gear to the PLM with screws. To then use simply clamp the PLM over your belt, close and you are done. No pinching, no prying, no special tools. Just open, mount on belt and close.
The PLM has a 9-hole pattern that mounts to Comp-Tac Holsters (International and QB), magazine pouches (both pistol and rifle), light holders and even these same items of some other brands. The nine screw positions make it easy to fine tune forward or rearward cant to meet shooter's needs. Different size belt? The PLM's internal adjustment bar and locking slots keeps belts sized between 1 inch and 1.75 inches wide both stable and centered.
Why
Well, the PLM can save time and wear and tear on a belt, and makes quick switching for range or tactical preparation quick, easy and efficient.
For example, three-gun competitors can go to the line with magazine pouches for their handgun, rifle and shotgun attached to their belts by PLMs. Then if they are in a subsequent single-gun event, they can detach the unneeded pouches with one hand - and do so without removing or even unbuckling their belt. No muss, no fuss, and fast, too.
For some types of law enforcement mission specific situations the quick removal or addition of certain belt gear might also prove advantageous.
