Re: Who among us makes holsters?

I have a Webley .455 holster from 'Pacific Canvas and Leather', it does look very CS, if a touch light on the stiching thread colour (a white instead of a mustardy-cream), but it does the job nicely at $34.50.

Re: The Best LC Fedora

Mr. Delk, or Fedora

I wondered-did you make the crown height taller of Harrison Ford's KotCS travel fedora? Everytime I see it (and love it)
I think the crown always looks about 5 3/4' tall.....

Re: The Best LC Fedora

* vary, that should of been. Experiences VARY greatly....... But the Christy is good for that tall crown, with medium pinch and turn etc. It is Certainly harder to achieve a Raiders SA look-even with ther adventure realm tutor-the right hand bash is THE most important thing to get that boxy look, bu...

Re: The Best LC Fedora

Tell me about it morethanatimelord, this heat is brilliant-though not so wonderful for my AS exams-restless night due to this hot weather....... :x My Christys is actually very impressive - not poor in anyway, a nice floppy felt, and they kept in good touch with me and had it to me in a week.....

Re: The Best LC Fedora

You make a fine point about people not seeing tall crown hats anymore - I have had someone saying my hat looks quite large, even though it fits well. Even Harrison's travel hat in KotCS looked tall on him.....I shall post pics for you tomorrow-I hope you like them. I share a liking of the LC gear wi...

Re: The Best LC Fedora

Hi backstagejack,

No I didn't actually, I just ordered a 'average christy' so to speak-and it came out looking mighty fine! Bear in mind though I am 6'1, and have a 60-61cm head size-very large! Anyway I shall get these pics for you tomorrow.....But it seems you have gone with a Christys :)

Re: The Best LC Fedora

I must say my LC Christy's is rather wonderful for the look-the brim seems to lend itself well for the visually slightly shorter side brim-seen very prominently in Castle Brunwald and when Indy undergoes the challenges-also as Mr. Delk says, the block shape seems perfect. I shall post some pictures ...

Re: Christy's Adventurer!

Yes the brim is unresponsive on an brand new Christy's- but after three months or so, my hat's brim is extremely malliable, and I can get just the look I want, and I contemplated a bit of brim-trimming to start with so give it some time :)

Re: The "Turn" - Is it a Raiders Standard?

I love the 'Raiders' turn-I just never quite get the look when shaping my hats.....

Because we've got a load of heavy BB Guns in black my brothers owned-A Walther PPK for one.........
