Kudos! Very well done Rick.

Bowie

Looks pretty close. The strap is a little higher on Jackman's flap and his looks like the portion that holds the body of the gun has a little more shape to it. Otherwise very close indeed.

Good eye Mechanic, you never cease to amaze with your attention to detail. That looks exactly like my Keppler holster for my 5.5 barrel S&W New Classic m1917 .45

Also, keep in mind that the S&W was originally made with a 5.5" barrel. Michaelson please correct me if I am wrong.

Bowie

Yep, about an hour outside Vegas. The Rebels, eh? That mascot sounds a little more intimidating than the Buckeyes, lol. I hope you enjoy your whip, Bowie, and maybe we'll get the chance to meet sometime. :) Where in AZ are you? Anywhere halfway close to Vegas? Lauren Wickline www.midwestwhips.com I...

Congratulations Gil, That’s a great looking bullwhip! Terry did an excellent job. I know how long you’ve been waiting and how much you’ve wanted that beast too. (I wasn’t kidding when I said those whips where Monsters :lol: becareful not to over do it ;-) ) I am really glad you where able to order ...

Bowie

Way to go havershaw, that costume came together fast!! And the jacket looks great.

My stone Magnoli quickly made the jump from gear wardrobe to everyday wardrobe!

Congratulations!

I'm wearing mine right now

... to a Rebel (I think... UNLV, right?)... Welcome to the Southwest Lauren & Paul. I have lived in AZ for 11years, and I only wish I moved here sooner.

Bowie

You dog! That Webley is gorgeous! Great score on the .455 and excellent collection McHale, I tip my hat to you sir.

Bowie

Fear not Schulte, I too have a cabela's safari shirt, and it is very rugged and comfortable. As far as breathable goes, did I mention I wore it through the summer in Phoenix, AZ? I really need to get more of these... I have sweat it out and it drys quick in a light breeze, the poly blends works well...

That jacket looks fantastic. I was just about to order from Wested, but now I may go with the G&B.

Spend the extra money and go with G&B, you will not regret it!

I almost fell outta my chair after reading that one G! We'll make a believe out of you yet

Bowie

I agree with everyone above! Todd's is by far the the best looking and most comfortable. I have two and could very likely see getting another.

for Todd!

Bowie

Well played inexpensive!! But I hope you know you are going to a special "hot place" for that one.

Bowie

Hey Pitfall
I don't put any of my shirts (indy or otherwise) in the dryer. All are hung on a rack to dry, as I too do not like when my shirts shrink. Both of my Todd's shirts are larges and I have not yet had any problem with them shrinking.

Regards!
Bowie

Bowie

The Knower of Things strikes again!! As usual Michaelson puts an end to the discussion..... Mil-Spec, say no more. If it's good enough for Uncle Sam's boys, it should stand up to whatever we throw at it..... Except maybe Pitfall Harry or Snakewhip

Bowie

Thanks for all the bush shirt input guys!! I guess I will have to employ my age old cover all solution and get one of each.... My wife supports my hobbies, but will probably roll her eyes at more neutral shirts on my side of the closet. :lol: My response is.... At least I match!! Not to mention in t...

Bowie

Any opinion on their Bush Shirt, stone or dark Khaki??? It's looks to be a very Indyesque, and the price is lower than the Exofficio Air strip shirt which is a great material for here in AZ. I'm leaning moe towards the Dk khaki for an alternative Indy shirt.....The stone seems too white.... I'm thin...

Bowie

Great find Mechanic, thanks for posting. The WWII Mechanic sweater is pretty cool too...

Bowie

Hey Strones I am in the same situation, and my solution was to buy another Todd's and use the first as a beater Boy can it take the abuse, e.g., yard & house work and I where it as play shirt with my 3 year old. Those of you with kids know that can mean anything from food to mud to finger paint....

Bowie

I own a goatskin G&B and it's built like a tank!! I know where you are coming from Shagbd, I too would rather sacrifice a few detail in order to have an item be a strong functioning article. I apply this criteria to many areas besides Indy jackets, but it is aptly applied in this arena. I have n...

Bowie

There's other scenes too where it looks brass color. I just didn't have screen caps. I won't say any more about it though 'cause I don't want to start a war. I'm with you Mechanic. I've seen it as brass at various points too. Cheers I too believe Mechanic is correct.... I remember reading that the ...

Bowie

Too cool man!! Those are the makings of cherished memories..... if only they wouldn't grow up so fast.... Cheers to a cool dad!!

Bowie

yep the cinching down looks like what I was seeing..... Thanks for helping me clear up Gents!! Whew, now I can sleep tonight. Seriously, I was getting a little obsessive about that one..... Mechanic I appreciate you weighing in, an confirming my suspicions. Again, I do not regret gettibg the G&B...

Bowie

TheMechanic's jacket seems to have much longer side straps, and the same with robocopindy's. It could be preception, or the fact that I run mine back rectangles in the stlye that Rundquist does. By the way Rundquist mine look exactly the same length as yours do on most of your jackets.... Yet anothe...

Bowie

Has anyone else noticed the G&B expo's have a major inconsistency with their side straps?? Some seem to be very long and sloppy/floppy and others seem too short. I had to send my original seal brown expo back to have the back panel fix, as it was miss aligned. They sent me a new jacket, but fail...

What a great way to remember your dog. You've given me an idea for when mine faithful companion is no longer with me, which I hope is still many years away. That is a nice idea...

When I got my very first nice whip, I took it with me EVERYWHERE. At first I would always sneak it inside into the air conditioning at work with me during the day so it wouldn't sit in the hot car Lauren Wickline That's so funny Lauren!! Infact that makes me feel better. I did the same thing when I...

I had the chance to handle one of these when I wen to see Lee at the Cross roads of the West gun show in Phoenix, and yes it is an awesome hat. I thought the felt had a great feel to it. I would have taken it from Lee then & there except I spent my cash on a Keppler Raiders belt, Raiders Holster...

What are your dimensions (height & weight) scot2525?? I'm 6' 2" 178lbs, and I decided to send my Med back for another large which is a perfect fit for me. You'll probably like the Large better.....

Bowie

AND to add to J!m's statement about the new batch..... I compared my new one to my first Todd's ####, and it looks even better in terms of color, and the pen slot in the left pocket is present. I say this even though I really like the first ones.

Bowie

Just wear it. Or don't. Besides, I cannot tell you how many times I have had a chuckle over the rooster-maned, blue haired teens or the people with so many piercings that they look like they had their faces forcibly shoved into a tackle box. :rolling: :rolling: :rolling: Thanks Rick5150!!! that has...

Bowie

I have recently purchased a S&W M22 1917, and I am asking for opinions regarding which ammo you prefer and why. I currently use the .45ACP which requires the moon clips, but I am curious as to the performance/reliability of the Auto rim which does not need the moon clips.

Thanks!!

Bowie

Bowie

Jonathan Jones wrote:Laugh? That was cool as ####!!

I second that motion!!! A whip being used with that skill would, in my humble opinion, cause an attacker to pause & retreat. Barring that he doesn't have a gun a la the SOC swordsman.

Bowie

Bingo Shane! The web bag strap went around the neck only, placeing the bag on you chest and the string went around the back and wrapped around the disk to keep the bag in place.

Bowie

Blueskyz, How does the nappa feel in comparison to goat.... weight & strength specificly???

Thanks

Blueskyz, Is that the standard dark brown?? It looks sharp man!!

I miss the Krispy Kreme shops that used to be in Phoenix. Unfortunately, and without warning, they all closed up shop and filed for bankruptcy over a year ago. Nobody else's glazed donuts come close.

I too am in the middle of this decision

Would somebody with a natural tan Strain & Del Carpio please be kind enough to post pics of each side by side??
Thank you

Bowie

I'm with McFly 100%!!!

I love my Magnoli, but it has a dressier look & feel. Todd's is more accurate and almost half the price. My Wested shirt falls in third, but I do not own an AB so I can not comment.

Cheers!

Bowie

That is one beautiful whip Craig!! And be sure to take care of you health, that cough sounds terrible. Nothing a week or two wouldn't fix I'm sure

Bowie

Just an FYI- As far as shipping on the Wested pants goes, check this out........ I ordered a pair of size 36 pants on 07/08, and they were delivered on 07/11

. That's from the UK to Phoenix, AZ!!!!

Bowie

Did you try to loosen up the side straps?? They look to be pulled tight in the picture, but that may be my eyes playing tricks.....

That's exactly what I would tell people when I had long hair.

Bowie

Very cool, you both look the part!!

Bowie

Blueskyz, I believe you nailed it when you say their clearence rack is full of returns that were non-standard products. Honestly I don't think they need to be as flexible as Wested, but by slapping on a non-returnable / non-refundable label on the customs they would save a lot of headaches. Either w...
