I gotta say, those pocket flaps look pretty good on those pants. I like them! They may be able to pull of a Raiders pant, if it was slightly grayer, with slight bit of brown, and the buttons were colour matched to the pants. Wonder what different swatches she has :-k They ask for your details in th...

No, sorry, bro, no Westeds. If someone has a Wested swatch they want to send, I'll take pics of it with the pants.

They don't look to bad, cutwise, but for the price, they seem way to khaki, no? They just look khaki against those darker brown Oak Creek pants. Those pants aren't exactly a screen accurate color, they are brown. I think the pants look great. I washed them 2 times in hot water and dried with high h...

Hey, also, it's a "or best offer" auction. Just a heads up,,,they took my best offer of $40.00

TR

O.K., here is their store.....I guess that qualifies as a website, right?? Just look for the pants and shirt.

The shirts are just S,M,L. But are correctly sized.

Can I post a link to one of their auctions??? Just for ease of everyone to see??

I got them in about 10 days, maybe shorter. It's fast.

There is a vendor on Feebay that has been there for a long time. They sell Indy shirts and pants. The shirt I got a long time ago, it's excellent, not perfect I'm sure for you major spec'd out screen accuro's, but spectacular none the less. I got the pants awhile ago as well, just getting around to ...

Here's a little advice on how to hang leather jackets. It's how I hang ALL of mine, as it really takes care and is gentle on them. Basically, just fold a towel into sections and drape it over a larger hanger (larger than wire) and it broadens the contact area greatly, sort of simulating shoulders, a...

Wow, Houston, eh? I could google earth the location and maybe drop by and see what is up

.... I live in Houston

Let me know if you want me to do it. Have you tried sending the cops there??

Looks like a canadian MKVII. I have one just like it. Unissued. Its the bag I use most now, as I like the little flapped pocket instead of the open one on the regular MKVII bags.

I watched a few episodes. It was like going thru a time warp! Amazing how it makes your mind feel! I used to watch that show like crazy when I was a kid. Even the lyrics to the opening song all came back to me!! And its probably been 30 years!! Weird!

3 questions, 3 thou! Hats look great!

1. can you do this with a Christy's?

2. can you leave or reinstall the liner?

3. what do you charge?

thanks!

In my experience, those extra knots tear up the thong. When the popper occasionally whacks or sometimes wraps around the thong, if there are more knots in the popper (it usually happens to my poppers while I'm cracking,,the popper gets an extra knot in it) it'll mar the leather pretty dang good,,per...

What canoes are people using? I work for the second biggest kayaking, canoeing and paddling retailer in Europe and we represent the Mad River Canoe canoes. We also sell numerous other brand plus manufacture our own products, here's a link to our brand page: http://www.bearwater.fi/fi/linkki_sivulle...

Welcome, Beaverlid! I spend most of my time outdoors as well! Here is a pic of my canoe and I in the Big Thicket reserve here in Texas. It's a nice trip, you can get lost in there for a long time if you really want to! White sand beaches to camp on, great river! About your hat, just remember it's no...

Order some from Gibson and Barnes. Tough as nails, stronger than westeds silk lining. They'll sell you a couple of yards, enough for a jacket. I've ordered some from them a couple times,,,easy-peasy.

I guess I've been out of the loop awhile- who's Garrison Hatters? Local Land Surveyors?

TR

It depends on if you want a revolver or auto. A real ammo shooting auto will have to be modified to shoot blanks, a real amm shooting revolver won't.
You can get blank firing repros of autos that are pretty much identical to the real thing for relatively cheap- $150.00 to $200.00 bucks.

I just have too many guns! ;) I've collected pretty much my whole life, so now I'm basically standardizing, going with less expensive calibers and fewer guns.(not that 7.62 isn't cheap, it's some of the cheapest) but I've kind of grown tired of AK's, they get too hot when shooting them and they are ...

Here is my AK (I've since sold it) It was a beauty! Polish-

I have a similar design that I had custom made my Whipartist a few years ago. My belts have snaps in two locations, one at the side, one in the forward position. Then my whip holders have a snap in the belt loop which can attach to either of the two positions, whichever postion I want to carry the w...

Best advice- Just grab the AK now, like I said, while the getting is good. A mossberg or similar is only about $300.00, so you can save up quickly and get one of those too, but get the "most likely to be banned sooner" weapon right now, just so you'll have it. If you wait too long, trust m...

Doesn't appear to be the right color.

I've used that pack for several years- Get em used or new at Sportsmansguide whenever I need another. I don't think it's close enough to the screen used pack, but it's a good pack.

TR

Texas Raider

Get an AK while you can. Go Polish or Yugo, try to get a milled receiver version if you can, it's much better than the stamped receivers. The Polish AK has some beautiful furniture on it, if you get the dark wood. The Yugo has a cool grenade launcher site that folds up if you need it (everyone needs...

Yeah, a few teachers probably would've liked to use one on me....(that doesn't sound quite right, does it

Yeah, the hardshell option is impossible to beat for serious travel.

TR

For those of you looking for a good case for your whips, especially traveling by air, where you have to check your baggage, a cymbal case works as a great whip case! I used these style cases when I was a road musician to carry my drums and gear. Many choices and HARD SHELL cases for air travel, not ...

For all around-right out of the box-no worries about anything being wrong perfection- G&B cannot be beat, period. For the most part, the G&B is idistinguishable from a screen jacket (as we all know, one was used to make the design), and so many different ones were used on screen- but this on...

G&B shot my custom requests down many moons ago........even when i told them i was willing to pay a really ridiculous price for it......i was quite insulted at the time. now, i admire them for sticking to their guns. The good thing about the G&B,,,,they're perfect the way they are! They don...

Texas Raider

Great thread! Man, the G&B is HANDS DOWN the best looking jacket, IMO! Just look at the jackets in these great pics! Straight from the factory, all around screen accurate beauty! Rock solid and no issues! Every one is as great as the last/next one! Worry free construction! I've got to get a few ...

I don't want to get into a bashing here, I just want some honest opinions. I've been looking over the pics this morning in the "000/888" thread, and I'm just stumped on what people see in this $900 jacket?! Seriously, now, from looking at all the pics I've seen of the TN jackets, I can pro...

Texas Raider

Yeah, I saw these in my catalog, but really, for the price, you can get a Todds or similar with epaullettes. These days you can get the repro's for the same or even cheaper than close- enoughs. It's not like back in the day when we were searching for something close enough 'cause there was no altern...

o.k., this is old news, guys. Yes that is a stunt strap in the tank scene. There is an old thread somewhere with pics clearly showing the cable that is underneath, attached to the underside of the strap. That tape and steel band probably are holding the two together.
