Re: HJ Location and dates!!!!!!!!
Here is what I found for now, regarding dates, this is only for the 38 new bond street era. The appointment is supposed to be from 1901, but the earlier appointment I found is from 1936, so I am not sue about pre-1936 design, except what is described here, the colored shield seems to appear between ...

Re: The Costume Base Indy Shirt
OK so following the video, the pockets are wrong, that's a bit a shame because on their website they show both correct and wrong pocket size.

Re: Webley WG Replica
that's the problem. I have seen one in my country, but price is expensive, and if I try to make molds and casts, it will be quite en investment. However, if nobody is on the WG market, it can be interesting. I already mde some resin castings, using metal powder, the results can be quite good even of...

Re: Webley WG Replica
Yeah I saw it, some are good, however it's a different webley gun, right?
So for now it seems there is no replica of the WG gun.
I am curious to know if there would be any interest in a resin replica

Re: Webley WG Replica
Hello, As I have te same question now, I started digging and found some archeaological thread to raise. Would anyone have idea about a close enough, not 3D printed, gun? Also interested, because if I find a good reference, I may be able to make a mold and cast it from resin with metal powder and bri...

Re: HJ Location and dates!!!!!!!!
I used the intels earlier in this thread to try to date old 38 Newq Bond St design. I found a hat, and I was suspecting it to be quite late production, the colors synthetic lining and plastic layer, looked so 60's 70's. 77b4724ad6afb73351567c8d446353148e93a67f.jpg And I was right, in fat the hat is ...

Genuine antique Indy jacket
Hello, After some searches to build my Indy gear, I was happy to discover most of the parts were in fact real outfit, some military pants, and various items, which can date back to the actual time the story is supposed to happen. I made searches about A1 and A2 jackets, to learn about brands from th...

Re: (Close Enough) Raiders Pocket Knife
found it, thanks. I melted the two best pictures of that knife. indianaraiders4k-movie-screencaps.com-5411.jpg It looks very close to the Linder but the blade base seems a bit different, and actually, has a much better shape, that is much closer to a real knife fro the 30's. I think the handle is no...

Re: HJ Location and dates!!!!!!!!
Sorry about that.
I found two hats one with 38 New Bond street and other with 13 Old Burlington, one has no lining.
I also don't know about lining, I asked the company before seing this thread, so I will post reply, depending on what they will tell me.

Re: Adventure accurate Indy Boots
Hand stitching with solid grooved primary sole is never a 80$ range shoe, but more a 2000+$ range, actually it's only used in custom made, bespoke shoes, by brands like John Lobb or Berluti, I mean, the real historical workshops, not the branded fashionned modern stuff. Standard new Lobb, Berluti, E...

Re: Last crusade shirt
If I remember this is probably the one I also liked, is there also a "cairo" version, if so, this is the maker I prefer too, sadly not eu located, adding massive shipping and custom charges...Herr Doktor wrote: ↑Sun Jul 02, 2023 7:21 am Not an expert, but I like Karolian Dry Goods “Berlin Adventure” shirt.

Re: What's a good way to age a Raiders sandbag?
you can dig a hole and put the bag inside, pour some water from time to time but keep under surveillance, because it can quickly damage the stitching and cloth. For leather, that process is just the best I found, however it requires some care afterwards, because the leather gets very hard, it will r...

Re: Potential New Boots
Hi, I think the top part may get accurate to indy boot, but the sole would probably be different, to have more grip, so it would be less accurate, just to bring a decent grip, non-textured soles are quite horrible, especially in harsh environment. I saw several mock toe design, and the soles very of...

Re: MKVII & MKVI updates for Indygear.com
Thanks a lot, Are there any close up or pictures of correct mount? I finally bought the bag, as the strap can be shortened and distressed, the bag itself is really pristine, and has no date inside, so, it can be "accurate" for a 1938 original period item. If I understand the strap is 1&quo...
