So I've got a Jg fal and I wanna run a bandolier loadout with it but I can't find any decent bandoliers or anything on how to make one, I'm thinking of just buying a battle belt like the one I've linked, putting it around my chest (and maybe somehow connecting to another belt) and running it like that, do you guys think that would look stupid or not?

Here's the belt I had in mind:

Cheers in advance

 
I occasionally play with a bandolier type kit and having a molly panel on thin straps I gave it up, just became uncomfortable, then I found the 5.11 sling bags. Now I have a sling back and, which I use daily and doubles as a bandolier for game use. Its great, I slip mags into the internal pouches and the pistol carry slot is easy to draw from.

 
I've been using molle bandoleers for years, I've got a couple of the original blackhawks (no longer made☹️), but there are Chinese knock offs available for very little money that will do the job effectively.

I tend to run an inverted serpa on an upside down molle mount at the top right side of my chest, followed by 4x 7.62 shingles, with a twin pistol mag pouch piggy backed on to the last (lowest) shingle which puts it down close to my left hip, setup works very well for me as a right hander, I also run a rifle sling, essentially a length of 25mm strap that starts in the centre of my chest under a shingle, drops down under my right arm mid torso & connects to the back strap on the centre of my back, on this is mounted a push button quick release connector that clips to the rifle. 

That set up means I can quite literally drop my rifle which will slide down to my right hip, nicely out of the way & instantly transition to my pistol, it's so fast, makes John Wick look slow lol, seriously.
