I was wondering, how do you attach a battle belt to a vest/chest rig?

You don't, you wear suspenders. There are some systems that are meant to connect the two, but they are new, unavailable and not really what you're looking for. You want suspenders.

What kind of plate carrier are you rocking that doesn't give you enough surface area?

The Tactical Tailor MOLLE vest that I wear in outdoor/woods games has loops across the bottom that are meant to support a battle belt. I don't use them, though, because I, too, use suspenders. Partially that's because I bought my gear with the 1st line / 2nd line division in mind, even though I never actually use them that way. Partially it's because I don't like the idea of having a single interconnected line of gear from my shoulders all the way down to my drop legs. Mostly, though, it's because I wear a plate carrier for CQB/MOUT games, and I want to be able to use my belt with both sets of load-bearing gear. |

@melson, its a chest rig. It has almost no real estate.

I have a plate carrier and still run a battle belt with it. But I'm cheap and use a y-harness to hold up the belt. Works like a charm though.
Just remember, you can never have enough stuff on you...

I've recently started using this harness in conjunction with a battle belt when I cart around my SR-25. Normally I use a full tearaway plate carrier, which is great for running and gunning, but not so great when you're laying prone for extended periods of time. Too much gear on the chest/abdomen to be comfortable. |

You can also go with something like this www.tacticaltailor.com/xharness.aspx. I definitely recommend a load-out like this if you like a nice open feel while running around, while still being able to carry your basics securely on your vest and not falling out of your pockets. |

Just search x harness on TTs website. The only issue with using one of those is that it is designed for the TT MAV. It likely won't fit an existing belt without modification. The MAV itself is a chestrig and not a belt.

Yeah, but with some nylon straps and a couple of those metal C-clips everyone has seen before, it can work just the same.
