Indy IV jacket, who is Tony Nowak?

I was just on the official Lucasfilm site and watched the video discussing the hat and the jacket and they said the jacket was made by Tony Novak. :o Its been awhile since I've been on but I haven't heard that name before. Anybody want to clue me in?

Webley Close Enough?

I'm sorry if this has already been posted. I have been seeing these in the Shotgun News and thought that one might pass for a Webley close enough. It is a Russian Nagant. The link is below, I would love everyones comments.
