I agree with Weston, get one (or more) of each. Then you know you got the right one.

Magnum Jones

I see some teenage kids wearing pinstripe hats similar to the one belloq wore In radiers at the end of the cario street fight seen. Not sure what style hat it is.

Kinda concerned...

If you worry about other people or your image a fedora isn't for you

However if you could care less?? Wear it with pride

I wish I could find a close enough David Morgan for $9 even $10

Magnum Jones

Lots of places have small and extra small jackets on clearance at super discounts. It may pay to look on some web clearance racks.

Magnum Jones

If you look on Todds website there is a 10 week wait on whips.

It looks like he has been very busy. He is sold out on alot of things.

Magnum Jones

What do you call cheap? Lee Keppler has them for $80 US.

The raiders S&W was a four inch barrel, modified. Original they are five inches.
I think the holster was made for a four inch barrel.

Magnum Jones

Check your local farm stores like rural king or tractor supply co. Look in the tack section I have bought small packs of 5-10 there before. If you have any local horse and tack shops they should have them too. I have seen them on ebay too. Not sure about paper binding, alot of leather is crafted wit...

Magnum Jones

What type of jacket is it.

Looks well made one piece back, two piece arms.

Good looking jacket, I may be interested in one if not to pricey.

Arms look a tad long, I like my jackets that way though.

Magnum Jones

Band looks to light to be a keppler, hmmm I thought it may be a HJ poet.

Magnum Jones

Having now seen Indy 4 three times, I must say that the AB's looked mangificent! :clap: Those hats really took a beating in Indy's latest screen adventure and it was such a thrill to look at the hat in the movie and think to myself "I know the guys who made those!" You guys rock!!! :clap:...

Magnum Jones

alot of those were modified to chamber .45acp may check first.

Magnum Jones

Yeah I was thinking about the silencer thing, too. Don't worry, I had no intention of buying - I just wasn't sure if anybody else had seen that website. Granted they DID have A LOT of neat WWII stuff - I think I recall seeing a Thompson, as well as various other Indy-era guns. Incidentially, what d...

Magnum Jones

They have some nice pieces, their prices are through the roof :shock: . Here in the USA you can buy most of those firearms in working condition for about half the price. :wink: The silencer you would have to be very careful with. Even if it is not real and only for display. It takes a class 3 licens...

Wear it under your jacket and no one will ever know.

Magnum Jones

Thats the age old question on many things.

As I have learned along the way, good things aren't cheap, cheap things aren't good. You get what you pay for. :idea:

Magnum Jones

I have 6 or 7 close enough shirts. And I wear everyone of them, often.

Magnum Jones

I was just back in there yesterday and they only had 3 left of that color.

Magnum Jones

Nice hat. Kepplers seem to be making a big come back around here lately.

I'm sure the AB wait time has a little to do with that.

What kinda shape is it? how is the bore??do the numbers match??

Magnum Jones

Good looking gear. Most of my stuff is close enough too. Very few people outside COW would know the difference anyway.

Magnum Jones

I was at walmart today and found a close enough shirt on clearance for $9. I think they just marked them down and had quite a few.

Nowhere SA but it has the Indy image and another shirt that goes good with my fedora.

Magnum Jones

Anyone know what people are paying for those? I bet you could get a lower end Indy jacket for close to the same price.

Magnum Jones

Does wested charge more for a custom fit? I have the problem of needing extralong in the sleeves but not that large in the body. I have to order extra large sizes to get the sleeve length. but then I just get a huge fit overall.

Magnum Jones

Could you see Indy wearing anything else? A ball cap, light weight jacket, sneakers and carrying a tazer??

Magnum Jones

Nice lid. I'm a big keppler fan. I'd love to have an AB. With the wait time and the price increase coming I doubt I will ever have one

Magnum Jones

I've always been more of an A-2 guy myself. I bought one of their lambskin A-2s about a year ago. It is a great jacket, one piece back, two piece arms.
Im very pleased with it.

Magnum Jones

Thats not a bad price from todds, some holsters cost that much or more alone.

Magnum Jones

I had a cheap hat that I used a touch up dye marker for wood trim. It did ok. I wouldn't do it on a good hat though.

Magnum Jones

I think it looks real good. That tall stove pipe look is what we all want in a fedora.

Magnum Jones

It looks a little big, but you look young too. What is a little big today may fit good tomorrow.

Nice jacket wish I had one.

Most people outside this form have no clue what the difference between an A-2 and a Indy jacket are anyway.

Magnum Jones

About 20 years ago when I got out of the military I always took off my hat when going inside. Habit I guess. I don't wear my hat inside to much just depends on were I'm at.

Magnum Jones

Cannot agree with you more Carebear. Magnum I have owned 2 glocks brand new (they were the cheapest options) and after the slide want bang will never own another one again. There was an article about 3 months later about slides breaking and parting from the frames in one of the pistol magazines (th...

Magnum Jones

A GLOCK! NOT! they are rubbish I have seen too may explode, slides break, misfeeds and go off becuase of the rubbish "safety". They are a poor copy of the HK which is the Original polymer based pistol. The only reason they are popular is becuase they are cheaper than the much more superio...

I agree it is not the best looking thing, but unlike Indy I dont have 40 hats. I try to avoid getting in serious rain, but if it happens I'm not going to ruin my lid or send it out for work. Just pull the cover and it's dry. Some day I'd like to get an AB but I think with the new movie coming out th...

Did US Wings get a C&D letter from Lucasfilm? All the jackets are "Adventurer jackets" now. Aren't they getting a bit out of hand with all of this? I mean it's not like we're going to stop buying from a vendor because they call their products something different. There have always bee...

Magnum Jones

I avoid getting my hat wet. You can buy a hat cover for just a few dollars. Toss one in your mkVII and it's not an issue for me.

That is never an issue for me. I only own one hat.

I'm a firm believer in "what goes around comes around!!!" Both good and bad. You may never be around to see it, but whoever did that will get it done back to them or worse yet. Someone may steal their car or something much more valuable. And if you're real lucky you may see it come around ...

Magnum Jones

I think the ribbon looks black on the raiders hat. I know they say it is dark brown. I prefer the black ribbon.

I bought on brand new in the late 90's with 2 hi-cap mags for $199.00

As far as doing anything to it, no nothing at all. Lee is one of the pioneers of Indy gear and knows as much about it as anyone. His hats for the price are as good as you can get.

Magnum Jones

OK, if this has been asked lately, moderators can nix and provide a link to the old discussion. (I really did do a search). So, where does everyone wear their gear? What parts and when? How much do you wear together without looking obvious? I understand portions may be worn separately. I often wear...

In my opinion thats insane, You could get a Kimber run it through the shop and still have change left.

Magnum Jones

YA, It's Indy gear. Like everything else. The difference between a messenger bag and a MK VII, or a DP and a AB, aldens and walmart boots. Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with close enough gear, depending on your comfort zone when it comes to Indy gear. Some people cant afford David Morgan...
