Search Nazis....I hate those guys!

Seriously though, might try Rit dye, but be careful, as the combinations of dye and colored canvas may produce a different color than just the dye.

I noticed a few of the Tommies in "Atonement" carrying these beauties.

So these will come with pre-war correct grips AND lanyard rings in the kits? Cause if so, I might be saving my pennies

Whew! Little pricey.

I'm no Michaelson, but a quick check of eBay reveals brand new 405's in black currently, so it seems they are offered. I believe the pair is new BTW.

I think someone else hit on my idea - a true messenger bag with longer dimensions to hold something laptop shaped - a real mod of the pattern, not just inside.

I know Magnoli makes a version of that famous bag...but would a "messenger bag" version be cool – big enough to hold spirals, notebooks etc? Just curious if anyone else had this idea.

I may try the Tandy Leather option. Google reveals there is one on the way to the seminary.

Well, I found two products on their website that I need. Total: $6.25. Shipping? $6.35! Gimme a break! Someone TELL me there is a chain or something that carries this in a brick and mortar. I can't pay more in shipping than I do on a product, my heart can't take it. Any help?

1. Are there retail stores that carry it?
2. I have a lambskin Eddie Bauer jacket that is brown, and is losing some coloring on the zipper leather area, plus some scratches. Which product would take care of that best, and would it work well with my antiqued Cow Indy Jacket?

Thanks Indyfans

I guess my original purpose behind the request is so that the correct grips would be easily available and yet not detract from the available supply. I mean, mine are going on an Airsoft gun. Part of me would like to think that grips that old wouldn't wind up being shelf warmers on some fake gun some...

Just occurred to me, instead of paying outlandish prices for these, anyone willing to cast some up? I've got an airsoft I need these on. Anyone?

Could the grips be removed? Even if they had to be sawed off, thats OK...

Ok, ultimate dumb guy question: where do you buy Pecards?

Shoot. Guess I was thinking of the M-29. Not sure where the lanyard ring idea came from...sure thought there was one. Any idea for where to find the M-29?

Several months ago (6?) someone scanned a pic which showed an EXACT Indy revolver by Unicorn Hobby Corporation, down to the lanyard ring and grips. I KNOW this thing was intended for production...anyone know if it is available in the US yet? I recall it was available from ONE store in the Czech Repu...

When I read Kris' contents, one thought instantly came to my mind:

"Besides, you know what a cautious fellow I am!"

LOL!!

Thanks to a very kind COW member, I was able to get my jacket for $140. I'm super, super pleased with it. Patience pays off! Course I've been on COW for a year or two...but the deal just fell into my lap!

Since Peter's thrown his response into the ring...Got any pics of any of your A-2s you have lying about there? Especially horsehide?

Good whip for a modest cost of being worth paying I see...LOL...I'm at Seminary, and quite low on cash all the time. My idea of cheap is under $10...which seems fitting for a whip that won't be used. I think a local Halloween shop may be my best bet...

I've coined the name "Belthanger" for a whip that's useless. I need a whip for Halloween for my Indy costume that looks nice on the belt. Any ideas for something that may look halfway close? I'll be hitting up the halloween shops soon, but thought you guys may know of one...

Hi all!

Circumstances have forced me to sell my A-2 jacket recently. For future consideration, anyone have a real closeup pic of Peter's A-2? Can be Memphis Belle or Aliens version. The website is nice, but doesn't show the genuine article too well...

I just got an 8 year old Wested of predistressed cowhide...Ive never seen another in person, but man if the predistressed doesnt look just like the movie jacket to me! I love mine, if that helps any.

Hi there! Just got my first Wested...never thought I'd say that! First off: no pics yet, my shirt isn't finished and I have no Indy pants. Now to the point: As some of you know, I am in seminary and money is a bit tight. A Wested, while being well priced as a custom jacket, is out of my range. One d...

Where would one go about getting a lanyard ring for this puppy?

Ok- I've got to know, I've suspected for a long time: Is Indy Magnoli a millionaire playboy, who has vast material resources and connections in industry? It's as if cool Indy props exist, and with a wave of his majestic hand, BAM! props appear for sale! And fantastic quality! Is this your main busin...

To be totally honest, your best bet is to snag other gearheads cast offs. I bought one members WPG bag with TAG strap for 48 shipped. Considering thats a 40 dollar bag with a 20 dollar strap, without two shipping payments, I got a heck of a deal. I see stuff like this all the time in the classifieds.

OK, let's put screen used prop stuff out of the picture. Heres the deal-I want to make a lucky lighter prop. How do you think the original was made? Could I just take a zippo, paint the sides white, and then paint the clover, and put clear nail polish, etc. over it? I know of Relic raider's badges w...

Texas, is that the shirt you found? Don't want to snag the wrong shirts from Wally...

The pics can be seen around-sorry I don't have a direct link. I do have some advice though- When you distress it, when mixing the bleach and cleaning powder, it will release ammonia (I think), which will kill you if you sit around breathing it. Just do it outside, and wait for the chemical reaction ...

There's that small pocket on top of the flat pockets. Very small...what was the original purpose of it, and what do you guys put in it? I tried a ZipLight, but it pops out too easily. Anyone?

Hi all! I've recently moved to the KC area, and saw on Indygear.com the cheap fedoras available at the Stetson Factory Outlet Store. Has anyone been lately? And is the Stetson Nostalgia still available? I'd like one in brown and one in gray...it's an hour away though, and gas being what it is wanted...

Nice bag...I'm looking for just such an acquisition.

Hi all.

I just bought materials to recreate the frame that holds the picture from the Book of Hours in Dr. Jones Sr.'s study. Any tips for weathering the wood to make it look old and beat up like in the movie? My first plan was to stain it, but from there I'm clueless.
