The Bang Hanger is a 1.4mm CURV mounting plate for weapon systems to attach to a belt. CURV material is naturally Black.
Comes standard with one additional 1.4mm CURV stiffener plate.
The belt attachment point was designed primarily for mounting to MOLLE and occupies 3 columns in width. The Bang Hanger can also attach to a non-MOLLE belt. It is adjustable for the height of the belt.
The Bang Hanger is best suited for compatibility with Safariland and Alien Gear mounting patterns but can also mount holsters such as Dara Holsters and Blackhawk holsters.
The Bang Hanger has the ability to cant (angle) holsters in both positive and negative directions.
The Bang Hanger has an integrated slot for a 1.5″ leg strap.
Included:
1 x Bang Hanger
1 x Stiffener Plate
3 x 3/8″ Phillips head screws
3 x 3/16″ Slotted Binding Posts
3 x Rubber Spacers
6 x Metal Flat Washers
*USE HOLSTER MANUFACTURERS HARDWARE TO MOUNT HOLSTER TO BANG HANGER*
*We recommend using thread locker on all included hardware.
*We recommend not hanging your belt with the weapon in the holster on the Bang Hanger. The Bang Hanger is designed to form to how its worn the most so if its hung up with significant weight in it then it may form in an undesirable manner.

I have been wearing a duty belt at a professional level since 2012, and even then the options were limited. Transitioned to law enforcement in 2019 from military, got a safariland mid ride able, didn’t love it. Then I tried the MHA by true north, better but still not what I wanted. Then I found this cool company and their product, exactly what I needed. Not only did it meet my expectations, once I broke it while in the performance of my duties, they called me, asked how it held up and that they would replace it. Outstanding customer service! And the most important part, at the end my gun was still secured to my belt, even when it was broken it still served it’s purpose!

Fantastic option for mounting a holster to a battle belt / duty belt. A bit pricey for what it is, but it’s designed and manufactured in the USA so that’s to be expected. Ingenious simplicity.

I don’t usually write reviews like this, but felt I needed to. I’ve been sworn for about 8 years now, always carried with Safariland UBL’s or recently their drop flex adapter. Have never been comfortable with any of them. Especially not sitting in a vehicle while on patrol. I was having awful nerve pain in my right leg where the top of the UBL would dig into the front of my hip which caused pain to shoot down my leg. The pain would continue when I stood up. Running was painful with my belt on, standing was painful, sitting was painful. It was to the point where I was seriously considering going to a different unit so that I wouldn’t have to be in a car any longer.
Bang hanger fixed all my issues. I’ve been wearing mine for about a 2 working weeks and I have had absolutely no pain. This thing about brought tears to my eyes. I raved about it to a few of the guys on my patrol team and now 4 of them have placed orders for them after trying my belt on. It legitimately felt like I forgot my gun at home and was running an empty holster. I can run my holster much lower than the UBL (about like the longest UBL) but it doesn’t dig into my seat and cause me any pain. Doesn’t flop around when I run or draw quickly. It’s mind blowing.

TLDR: Nothing but the best. I love the way it looks, moves, the durability, and the variety of angle attachment options.
For full disclosure I am not an LEO but I do train as a volunteer with Law Enforcement. I can’t think of a single negative to this piece of kit. When I first saw it online I thought it looked big, bulky and uncomfortable. After doing some more research I ended up picking one up and long story short I have two now, one for a 2in duty belt that will be switched to an Xbelt soon. And the other on a 1.75 blue alpha battle belt. Absolutely love the durability, agility, comfortability, and quality of both. I also love the darker color compared to the first gen ones which makes the Reese wrap not required (they still look good though, I have one in OD). Would recommend and would absolutely buy again.

Best hanger I have ever worn! Tried the safariland, it sucks. Tried the MHA its sucks, this, this is the TICKET

I’ve been running the Banghanger for over two years now, I have my service pistol attached with the Safariland QLS system to the Banghanger I and absolutely love the system! I ran the True Nort Concepts plate and enjoyed that system too but the Banghanger offers more flexibility to the user and more mount position options. I have had zero issues with my Banghanger and i have used and abused the plate during work and during intense trainings.

I don’t usually write reviews but the bang hanger deserves all the hype. I originally started with the safariland UBL when I started my law enforcement career. Shortly after a few years I made the swap to the bang hanger and have never looked back. I now own multiple bang hangers on multiple belts for a little over a year.
The Pros:
slimline
Flexible
Lightweight
Comfortable
Durable
A multitude of adjustment angles ( positive & negative) & ride levels ( high/mid/low) for your desired holster.
Awesome customer service
In conclusion, if you’re looking for a great long term investment for those long shifts or for a light weight but durable option for range trips look no further than the bang hanger.

I have the Bang Hanger on a Tac belt and the Smoke Wagon for low profile/investigative work and several ADAPTs. Just by wearing this gear you can tell that it was made by cops who want to make cops’ lives easier. They’ve done that so well. Quality, durability, function, and aesthetics are fantastic.

I have several of these hangers and I love them all. I use them with Xbelts and it’s the perfect duty holster hanger!

LOVE the bang hanger. After trying multiple different brands and not finding the exact specifications I wanted, this answered all of them. Couldn’t be happier to use this on duty. Winner.
Joe S. –
By far the best holster mounting solution out there! So much more comfortable than other options out there and keeps the holster low profile and close to the body. Can’t recommend it enough to people especially wearing a holster professionally for long shifts and sitting in a car.

I’ve been using the bang hanger on my duty belt since it was released. Absolutely a game changer for holster mounts. No more pressure points on your hip, flexibility while sitting, running, squatting, etc.
I recommend the bang hanger to every coworker that asks about mine.
10/10 keep up the great work.

I have the original and the new CURV model. Both are awesome but the new one is definitely an upgrade. The material looks better and offers all the same performance and comfort as the original.
I have my first one set up on an AWS SMU and my newer one on a DM MECH, which is what I run at work. The design mounted easily onto both belts and is very secure. I can run it without a leg strap, but the leg strap does add some nice stability when drawing quickly and from weird angles. My go to holster hanger.

I’ve been running the Bang Hanger on duty for about 2 months now and cannot imagine going back to the UBL or similar options.

I’ve been running the old Tegris Bang Hanger for over a year now and I love the way it has conformed to my leg. It’s slim, but incredibly sturdy. I ordered the Curv material Bang Hanger and am excited to run it with my new X Belt too (when it comes in). I run GWS on all of my belt attachments and feel incredibly confident in saying they won’t be ripped off the belt or slide out of position.

I have been super impressed with the Bang Hanger. I’ve suffered with significant hip pain for over a decade. I’ve tried several safariland products and the TNC MHA with little relief. The Bang Hanger has significantly helped my pain without sacrificing draw or retention performance. The Bang Hanger allows the right amount of flex when seated in my patrol car to avoid the pinpoint pressure from hours of being seated throughout the day. The Bang Hanger is well worth the investment!

I have been using the original bang hanger for years on duty and never had an issue. I was recently in a fight with a suspect and landed on the handle of my duty weapon. It caused my firearm to fold in and crease my bang hanger. I truly believe that if I was using a plastic holster adapter it would’ve snapped and my duty weapon would have been within reach of the suspect.
I placed an order for a new bang hanger and put the above information in the comments. Preston reached out to me a short time later and stated that he would replace the bang hanger for free since it was damaged on duty. He also asked for pictures so he could see where they could improve the product. He then realized I had the original bang hanger and told me it should already be fixed with the newest version. This right here is how a business should be ran, amazing customer service. This is the reason I recommend guardian warrior solutions to everyone on my department.

The Bang Hanger is the most comfortable system I’ve used to mount my holster in 20 years of law enforcement. I’ve used the Safariland mounts and some other aftermarket mounts, and every single one left hot spots and discomfort, or slid around. This thing stays where I need it (currently mounted on a SubSecond belt) on a day to day basis at work. Not only is it comfortable and secure, but when mine got damaged during defensive tactics training (mostly due to me messing up the installation), Guardian Warrior Solutions covered it under warranty and replaced it. Importantly, even though it got damaged under some extreme circumstances (it was torqued on far more than it would in a real world situation), it STILL held up and kept my firearm secure. You can trust this product, and you can trust this company. Good products made by a good person. Buy with confidence.

I’m always leery of what I use for work! After hearing a couple guys at work (that I trust) talk about the Banger Hanger I decided I needed to try this thing! Well it has been a great investment!!! After a critical incident at work I took my belt off to make sure everything was still where it needed to be. Well I quickly realized I was missing 2 screws from my Banger Hanger. Only the middle one was still there. I’m positive this was my fault and I probably forgot loctite. Without going into details I feel that I put this product to the test. Even with one screw it stayed exactly where I needed to. When I called about finding out the size screws I needed I received unreal customer service! That is extremely hard to find these days! I will continue to be a customer and look forward to trying all the products eventually!! I thank you guys for making a comfortable, solid and quality product.

Coming from the True North Concepts MHA to this and I must say I am impressed. The way this integrates seamlessly with the belt and moved with your legs and hips while remaining locked into the belt is unmatched. It’s got just enough flex but was way stronger than I could have imagined. Will recommend to anyone and everyone looking for holster mounting solution. Pay attention to the description as I missed the part where it came with a stiffener plate already included and added an extra one to my cart. Going with the ESD swivel for leg strap since the gbrs leg strap I was running prior didn’t match up well (it’s primarily meant to integrate with the Tru North MHA). Excited to continue running it and see how it holds up to test of time. Thank you for a great product development!

Been using the original bang hanger for around 2 years now and it was the best switch ever as a copper. Feels like you’re wearing nothing, is strong as hell and allows for so many platforms and cant angles. I recommend this product for everyone and the lifetime warranty of it being replaced if it get warped like mine does is amazing. Preston is a down to earth guy who is always willing to help you out.

This is well worth it ! Makes 12 hour patrol shifts (I also have added the Qore Performance Ice Vent Holster Pad available here) comfortable. Holds my AG Rapid Force Level 3 holster solidly and does not effect draw. Added a Sturdy Wing to hold a TQ out front of the holster, so it is accessible with either hand. Great setup !
