Anybody seen a bk2 with a blackhawk belt loop attached ?

It is actually very easy. I just ran down to the man cave and in 10 minutes it was done. The only thing I had to do was to drimel a tiny amount to fit into the slots of the belt loop.

First, cut off the strap. (mine was already tearing off on one rivet.

Then use a pair of snips to cut off rivets and then drill out the outer two holes to fit the inserts from the belt loop.

put insert into new widened outer two holes (tap in with hammer or something to seat insert firmly)

Next you will have to trim a very very small amount to make the inserts fit into the slots. (very small amount)

Then bolt on and admire your handy work.

Now take time to realize that I am right handed and not left handed....
Thankfully an easy fix! Glad I saw this, it was easy to do and I really like the way it turned out.

I just realized how much versatility there is on angles and such. Derek turned me on to carrying in the front as a cross draw and it doesn't kill me when I sit down.... This really turned out better than I thought.

It seems very sturdy. It is designed to carry a 1+ pound pistol and it has some flexibility due to using the existing canted mounting piece that the strap was hooked to.
 
The good thing is that the only thing you have to tear off are the rivets and you can put those back easily. So nothing gets wasted so you can't put it back in 15 mins.
