There isn't much I can say that hasn't already been said.  This one really caught my eye and I had to study it.  You just raised the bar for me.  Outstanding details.  VERY VERY well done!

Michael, the only CA glue I used was for the release button to the buckle. For the belts it was Aleene's Turbo Tacky Glue which is a craft store white glue. I also use it when mocking up parts in the early stages of a build.

BTW I think you are doing an awesome job on your pro street Beretta.

Glen, 

Thanks for the compliment on the Beretta.  I'm having fun with that build.  I hope I can do half as well as you did with the details.

Thanks for the information on the harnesses  They look real.  Did you use a marker(Sharpie) to color the belt material?  If so did the gloss clear go over the marker OK?

Michael, I only use a Sharpie if I'm doing a black colored belt. On any other color I'll use Testors enamel or Tamiya acrylic as some of the PE pieces also get painted and then they're sure to match. I use Tamiya acrylic for the gloss and flat clears and they work fine.
