But Wade, the true question is, would you wear your bag strap on the inside or outside of your jacket (or is that why you did away with it)?

P.S. It was your gunbelt I was wearing. Fits great! Thanks again.

redsleighdown

So I was wearing my gear today and thought of something. Wouldn't it be more practical if the web belt and gunbelt were switched (or at least the holster and whip holder)? I'm not talking about switching the side, but I feel like the holster should definitely be put through whichever belt is going t...

redsleighdown

Thanks Wade, I will be in touch soon

Sidenote: Does anyone know how to tie the knot on the whip seen in the picture wade posted? It looks like 2 or 3 standard knots but its a little too fuzzy to be 100% sure.

Thank you all for the input.

redsleighdown

So I'm about to buy my CS leather work from Wade (bag strap, whip holder, gun belt) and wanted to be sure on grooves for SA. What I believe is that the strap does NOT have grooves, while the whip holder does. Is that correct? Any screen caps would be much appreciated.

redsleighdown

Color me interested.

Rook, check your PM. Thanks.

Now here's a question. When i was doing the weathering I discovered a previously unseen air bubble on the front edge of the cylinder. I trimmed it and sanded it a bit but it's still noticeable. If one of you on the list (Pistol #25-35) would like the one with the flaw, I'll knock off $5.00 from the...

Haha, very true. I actually have an AB CS fed and a perfect Jacka 10' CS so I can't really improve on accuracy there. Thanks for the info about the other CS items.

redsleighdown

Oh I will. I already have an AB raider's holster but I've been debating if Jake's is more accurate? Does anyone see a fault in either?

As for the CS gear, I have heard Jake and Keppler are the top but again, is one more SA in people's opinions?

redsleighdown

Okay indy fans, if price was no object, what would you get for the most SA of the following: a Raiders holster, a CS holster, a CS gunbelt and whip holder, and a CS bag strap?

From what I could see, it is the bag that IB found, with a different flap and different straps. We have all seen the straps, and the flap looks to be something like http://www.armynavydeals.com/asp/products_details.asp?SKU=BPGALP&ST=2 It was a short flap (Told ya ;) ) with d-rings on the strips ...

How about the backside of some leather to mimic the inside of a holster

I just finished talking with Colin at aussie saddle in Malibu and he said that The Jacka whip is the one seen and used in the movie. He also stated that Ford liked it so much that he took one home with him as did Spielberg and someone else. I don't know how true this is but I can see Ford keeping t...

C, that looks incredible! Congrats on the pistol and the shadowbox looks great.

Tony told me this afternoon that the jacket has been double stitched and re-enforced, which means it's been made stronger than the screen worn jackets. As we have heard mentioned before, we should break it in hard and wear it as Indy would. This will assure we give the leather character in our own ...

redsleighdown

Just got off the phone with Tony. Basically, you can be as picky as you want for SA. And if you REALLY want SA, you would need: 30 jackets, made from those same 15 cows used for the original jackets. No ###/777 on the inside of the jacket. Black lining. One pocket. Have the jacket sent to Ford to ha...

redsleighdown

Try the COW member Mola Ram. Here's his site: http://www.wolfpitwhips.com/

His non-slip holders are amazing!

redsleighdown

I believe there are two ways something can be SA
A) Exact color/measurements/EVERYTHING!
B)Exact color etc., and CORRECTLY PROPORTIONED measurements

But to be ironic, if Tony is adding the names and #s to the jackets, they are no longer perfectly SA.

So with my Indy costume almost complete...

what do I need to maintain it?

I've got a Leather jacket, bag strap, alden shoes, holster, jacka whip, the works.

All I know right now is that I need some pecard classic leather dressing for my whip's fall.

Links would be great! Thanks all!

I had actually asked Marc that same question a few days back about my Beaver AB.

you can brush it of (counterclock wise on top and the other way on the underside). But it won't blow off "just like that" )

Best to you,

So there you have it.

Snakes like to hide under slides

Good luck.

Just to switch it up.........

This is NOT a hint:

2nd and 3rd artifacts.........check.

Hint three:
The answer lies within every sentence. Even these two.

I hope you all are getting THE POINT by now. This is going to by my FINAL hint.

C'mon, lets get some more people in this competition.

Hint 2 from me:
If this competition was in Spanish, you'd be looking for something opposite "la miceda." maybe even the reverse of it.
