I only have one more pic that I can post according to the rules. Off topic for sure but I am easily distracted :CR: 1948 Willys CJ2A that I took all the way down to the frame sitting on the floor of my shop and went back together with it. http://i1132.photobucket.com/albums/m567/maldr427/CJ2A/201606...

And because everyone likes pictures ;) Im 5' 10" and weigh between 200 and 210 depending on the season. (its coming on winter time so closer to 210 :- ) Roundish face. The crown seems a little tall to me but that may be because im not used to it. http://i1132.photobucket.com/albums/m567/maldr42...

about 10 years ago I bought a used Federation fedora from a member here that had been reblocked by Steve. I never ended up wearing it much and it has sat upside down in the hat bock that it was shipped in and forgotten about. Im an avid hunter and recently I have gotten pretty interested in vintage ...

What pistol is that you are carrying? Ive been looking at getting a good compact.

I distress my gloves the old fashioned way. Hauling hay, cutting firewood, working on the farm, etc. It doesnt take long to wear out a pair of gloves if you acually use them!

I went ahead and rolled the dice and got an original from WPG. I called and talked with him and he said that these were in real good shape. I told him my intentions for the bag. Im going to get this first one and see how much I really will use it. If I start to use it a lot then I probably will get ...

Does anyone have a pic of the inside of an MKVI? I read that they may be built better? What is the configuration of them?

I was thinking about using an MKVII bag to carry duck hunting. Its the right size for extra calls, shells, snacks, etc. Would I be better off getting a reproduction bag or would an unissued bag be just as durable if not better? If reproduction, who makes the best one?

rebluing a gun can hurt its value. However I have altered guns I dont intend to sell as well. It looks good. I have a mid 20's military/police model that I have chosen to leave in the patina look.

How long does it take to break them in? Mine really need to break in around the inside of each heel and around the sides of the feet. Most of my shoes are either pull on boots or soft leather justin chukkas.

Just letting everybody know

When you turn a hat like in Raiders is the dimensional cut done before or after the turn? Also if a hat has been bashed straight for a while can you even turn the hat and rebash it? I like mine like it is but for some reason I have this desire to fool with it!

First and foremost, I just got my akubra hat from rick5150 and I am VERY SATISFIED :lol: This was a great hat for a great price, blocked by fedora no less! My question is a newbie question im sure. My perception of these hats all this time was that they were a stiff type felt. Imagine my surprise wh...

Has anyone else had a problem with there lambskin jackets ripping at the bottom of the pockets?

JCrew had 9's and 10's today. I wear anywhere b/t a 9 and a 10. My Justin chukka boots I have are 9's so thats what I went with. hopefully it will work out. THe lady told me I could return them if they didnt fit.

I havent made many posts on this forum but I like to get on here and read alot. I dont care if I get slammed or not because this is everyones own opinion right? I wear an Arkansasa Razorbacks ball cap all the time. I am from Arkansas and I can promise you that I am not a redneck. You could also rest...

I cant seem to find any of those on that particular auction site? Anybody seen any lately?

Sure... but if yer the guy wearing it, yer not the one who has to look at it! :-) Exactly, I like the Raiders hat best but im afraid it might look too tall on my head. The distance from my ears to the top of my head is short. I know when I played ball in school the ballcaps always looked TALL on my...

Which movie style hats go better with cartain head shapes? I want to purchase a fedora when funds allow and I like the look of the raiders hat best. But that is also on Harrison Ford. If I am going to spend the money on a quality hat I want to make sure that it looks right when I wear it out!

Where can one go to find out which style hats look like on certain head shapes? I am looking into buying a hat but I want to make sure it looks good on my head. Nobody wants to wear a hat that doesnt look good!

I placed a call in to J crew this morning just to see if they had any of the Rugged boots available. The lady told me that all she had was a 10 1/2. This doesnt do me any good b/c I wear either a 9 or a 10 depending on the shoe. She also told me that more probably wouldnt be available untill August ...

I have been looking into buying a new suit. I really like the style of the old suits of the 30's-40's.(Plus it would look great with my fedora when I get it!) Does anybody know where I can get a suit like this or what style to look for?

I am wanting to start looking for a Raiders style hat to start my collection. I want to know what hats to look for at thrift shops and such to get the right look. Since the hat would be worn little I can afford to pay the high prices of the new hats I have seen available from this forum. I guess my ...
