HomeHello, I came across this photo of a Marine and I want to know what type of belt that I marked in red?
I wonder too, what type of attachment of the belt ?
Thank you in advance

Belt Tan
I found the exact same belt when I bought a USMC grouping ahwile back. My belt is made by Blackhawk!. It has loops all the way around it to accomodate MOLLE pouches.
Doing some research, it looks like there are several different manufacturers of this type belt other than Blackhawk!.
Here is a link to the belt: https://www.entrygear.com/product.asp?id=41PBTX

I am not 100% sure. Like I said, my model is a Blackhawk and is in coyote tan. When I get back from tutoring today, I'll try to post some pics of my belt.

For me, this belt is the FLC vest's belt that was separated from the rest of assault vest. I'm pretty sure of that. I already saw it. On the belt on picture, there's only 2 MOLLE strap rows and not three as the one of Blackhawk you shown.

P-E, I'll check my coyote tan FLC vest and see if it is possible but as matter of fact I highly doubt it because if you take a look at this Marine photo carefully, you will see this belt has suspenders to support the weight of belt.

Yes merc, I well know the suspender. But you can remove the belt from the rest of FLC vest. It's moveable. I already saw it. And on the picture, yes I see suspenders but as you can see, they are "home made attachment" (sorry, don't know if it's the real term to tell it was done by soldier himself).
But the Blackwater belt is exclude for me because there's no suspender & because there's 3 rows of molle straps... (so different than the one in picture used by soldier)

That might be an Eagle Industries FSBE 2 warbelt, but kinda hard to tell since you can see much of it.
Here is my belt that I bought with the Marine grouping. I know for a fact that the Blackhawk belts were used by the Marines. Mine has three loops of material, but if you look closely you can see how the middle row almost looks like a piece of flat material.

P-E,
If you look at the FLC belt, there is a row of stitching that goes all the way around the belt in the middle. In the picture of the Marine on top, that row of stitching is not present.
JKin,
I think you may have nailed it. The Eagle FSBE 2 belt has two rows of loops. Not three like the Blackhawk.
