OVERVIEW

Thiss a collection of mounting plates developed to solve common mounting and adjustment problems encountered when attaching holsters and magazine pouches to Tek-Lok compatible belt attachments.

Rather than redesigning an entire holster, these plates provide alternative mounting patterns, additional adjustment, and improved load distribution while continuing to use standard holster hardware. All designs are based around M4 fasteners and standard 8-32 Chicago screws commonly used throughout the holster industry.

DESIGN GOALS

Goal

Engineering Rationale

Improve mounting flexibility

Provide additional hole patterns and adjustment without modifying the holster.

Increase strength

Distribute load over a larger printed area where practical.

Simplify fitment

Adapt common holsters to Tek-Lok compatible mounting systems.

Reuse common hardware

Standardize on M4 hardware and 8-32 Chicago screws.

Each plate was designed to solve a specific mounting problem encountered during competition use. Rather than producing one universal solution, the collection includes purpose-built variants for common applications.

File

Purpose

TLB_CompTac_3Hole

Adapts Comp-Tac holsters with a three-hole horizontal mounting pattern while increasing material around the mounting holes for improved printed strength.

TLB_CompTac_6Hole

Similar to the three-hole version but provides additional vertical adjustment and drop options through a six-hole mounting pattern.

TLB_12Hole

Expands the standard nine-hole mounting pattern to twelve holes, providing additional mounting locations and adjustment flexibility.

TLB_3LongHole

Uses elongated mounting slots to provide continuous vertical adjustment instead of fixed hole spacing.

TLB_15DegreeCant

Integrates approximately 15° of forward cant into the mounting plate for disciplines that require or benefit from a canted holster position, such as IDPA.

⸻

ASSEMBLY

  1. Select the mounting plate that best matches your holster and desired adjustment range.

  2. Attach the plate using standard 8-32 Chicago screws.

  3. Install the completed assembly onto a full-size Tek-Lok using M4 hardware.

  4. Adjust ride height and cant as required before fully tightening all fasteners.

Required screw lengths will vary depending on the selected plate, spacer stack, and holster body thickness.

TESTING / VALIDATION

These mounting plates were developed to solve specific fitment and adjustment issues encountered while configuring competition belts. Each design has been used to adapt holsters or accessories to Tek-Lok compatible mounts without requiring permanent modification of the original equipment.

The different hole patterns provide increased adjustment, improved compatibility with specific holster manufacturers, or additional printed material around the mounting hardware where higher loads are expected.

⸻

FUTURE DEVELOPMENT

Additional mounting plates will be added as new compatibility requirements arise. The objective is to build a reusable library of mounting solutions that can be mixed and matched across different holsters, magazine pouches, and competition equipment while continuing to use standard holster hardware.
