The Kore belt is on my radar when my current EDC belt wears out. Been wearing the 5.11 Operator for many years, i replace them about every 18-24 months when the velcro wears out.

I’ve got two Kore belts now. Love them much more than the 5.11 I also have. You can try a Kore out if you want

Been wearing my Kore for over 2 years, no sign of wearing out at all.

Aren't we still mad at Springfield for that anti-gun thing they did all those years ago? Sorry I've been out of the loop.
Yea we hold grudges over 2a loyalty as long as a scorned woman will
How much is that belt? Seems like a lot of cost to keep running. The one thing I do like is the kore belt for sure. That I would go to blows over

The 5.11 operator belt I usually pay around $50. The Kore i want runs $90

Fun fact, the code talkers in WWII used the Navajo word for eggs as the code for bombs.
I think the Mexican use of their word for eggs the way we use "balls" actually makes more sense.
Eggs *are* a container for genetic material used in reproduction.
But I suppose balls are played with for recreational purposes, so maybe...

Just FYI Mexicans aren't the only ones that use huevos to mean balls.

So, women have ovaries that contain, uh, what’s that word? Eggs. Yeah, eggs. And dudes have ballsacks that contain…. Eggs? Nope. Balls. If you wanna call your balls eggs, go ahead. Just be careful if someone is ever standing in front of you and asks you how you want your eggs. “Scrambled, please,” could get you a swift kick in the goolies. And I don’t even wanna imagine what poached, over easy, sunny side up, or a Denver omelette might feel like.

Both ovaries and testicles (And non mammalian eggs) contain gametes.
In mamals the egg *is* the gamete. In other species it merely contains them. The word was originally used for those others.
The Navajo and old school Mexicans are talking about a small round object that contains gametes. It it is a more apt comparison than a piece of sporting goods.

When have you ever heard a guy say he got hit in his eggs?
Maybe a European guy, but not an American.

And in males the sperm is the gamete. Still not an egg.
If you wanna use the word that gets used in real life, try cojones. ¡That one gets uttered allowed, kicked around, and flexed on occasion, cabrón!
