Just received another email from Kevin Endicott who asked me to post this... We have been inundated with enquires in the last 24 hours.It is going to take time to process the orders.Can you do me a favour and maybe post some info letting people know the bags will be available to your group via the f...

Nope it wasnt too musty. You could always spray it with a scent free odor neutralizer. I really dont think you will need to though, especially after you treat the leather.
Hope that helps

LOL well I should have explained better, the butt pack of today also hooks onto your web gear harness. I do not agree however that the M1936 Mussette bag is much larger than a butt pack of today, I wore a butt pack on my duty gear for 6 years and it would hold about half as much as my medium issued ...

A perfect blend of leather and canvas and it is very very rugged. I ordered it from Cheaper than Dirt military surplus . N...

Congrats.....I'll hopefully be ordering mine before Summer.

Oh I agree totally, my goal is to get one of Lee's holsters but I have 4 children and often times I find myself lacking the funds..LOL. I do love working with leather and have been doing so for years, so for now I will just work at this...it helps me through my long winters. Thank you all for the he...

Thank you both for your help, I greatly appreciate it. I'm going to pick up my leather today....so now I just have to wait for a few days off to start.
Thanks again
Mike

I was thinking about trying my hand at making a Raiders style holster and was wondering if anyone else has ever done this? If so do you have any pics?
