very nice! I have a problem with the snap staying closed closest to the whip. Any ideas how to fix that?

yeah honestly the only thing you have to worry about is someone thinking the sound is a gun going off. If no one is in earshot then you don't have to worry. I prefer dry grass for the whip; wet is no good for leather, sand or dirt can get in between the strands and cause damage and pavement might be...

OMG THAT IS AWESOME! I have to ask, did anyone call yet??

I like the 3 pass knots better than the 2 pass on the Jacka.

OMG that's beautiful!

Just curious how often you’re Pecard-ing it? I was instructed not to over do it with my whip, once after 6 months of getting it. The fall gets done much more frequently. But what do I know. I have done the entire whip twice since December, because it felt a bit dry. The fall before each use and the...

I used to do the same thing when I was learning with my whips when they were new. I couldn't get it to sound as loud as videos I've watched online. It boils down to 2 things: 'break in' the whip and proper technique. Once the whip is better 'worn' or 'seasoned' you will learn proper technique since ...

i wonder if you can get Adam Winrich to send a letter??? Anyone know how to?

chenricy

Heck I'd say give them a call. You'd be surprised how welcoming and helpful they are!

There's two US made revolvers produced in quantity for WWI, both were made for civilian and police/government use with their own designations ( Colt New Model/S&W Hand Ejector) and then their military designation which was M1917 ... the distinction was M1917 Colt and M1917 S&W both in .45 c...

chenricy

#### pretty! I have the m1917 which is the same as the movie and I still haven't cut the barrel yet. Since its over a hundred years old I still don't have the heart to cut it. Yet...

To complete his recently gathered Indy gear, my friend spared no expense -- he bought a real 1912 S & W! (He shoots as a hobby, and had long wanted a WWI period revolver, so this gave him a good excuse.) That's awesome, did the same myself :) Now comes the most important question: did he cut th...

chenricy

That was informative, thank you. They both seem to be highly regarded revolvers by gun enthusiasts and I enjoyed seeing them compared. I've always had an interest in military history and enjoy learning about historic weapons. Thanks for sharing. Me too man. I do own the S&W so I was happy it ki...

chenricy

well I like it! Thanks for sharing.

see what happens when you ignore that WET PAINT sign on that bench!!!

How Do madame!

chenricy

Yeah it does still work for me but since I'm at work I can't risk the virus lol! Also I did have the wrap around holder but the snap was never good enough. I tried replacing it with industrial velcro but I could never find a leatherman that could stitch it properly. Does anyone make a wrap around wi...

chenricy

mighty pretty looking whips there

chenricy

makes you realize the amount of work they do to make things realistic and no one even notices the effort.

chenricy

That looks awesome but sad to say after what happened recently they probably won't let any gun in cons anymore. Hope they do though 'cause that looks awesome!

I also recently picked up the DeLongis instructional DVDs to expand my whipcracking vocabulary, along with a Terry Jacka bullwhip because that's the design that the DeLongis method is built around. The DM / JM Indy bullwhips also perform well with Anthony's style, but the shorter handle is somewhat...

sexy looking ladies you guys got there...

I love my 8 foot Del Carpio and never had a problem with it. Dealing with Bernardo is an absolute joy as well and really treated me as more of a friend than just a customer. Here is my 8 foot Del with my 10 foot Morgan. Only the length of the handle gives it away. https://s7.postimg.org/4lui6lbyz/ba...

Also on LC was the liner correct for the maker of that hat?

I can tell you one thing, I am part of that great generation that had every Star Wars toys you can imagine. And I played with ALL OF THEM! Had I kept everything in the original box I'd probably be a millionaire and I don't have any of those toys left in my possession. Do I regret it? Heck no! I woul...

Awesome pics everyone! I have been 'babying' my baby for a while now and I think it's time to get her wet and broken in. So do we have an agreed upon method of drying a beaver felt Indy hat that will either retain the shape or make it feel and look even better?

Experts?

I think I remember reading that the problem with the buckle vs the D ring was that the buckle ends up cutting into leather car seats or something like that...

chenricy

How many applications did you have to do with the powder to get that look? Extremely accurate!

chenricy

like Chewbacca said, the biggest problem with Wested is the return. I was lucky the return covered the mailing fees to receive and return (meaning I lost). I would say if it's your first jacket (or new) keep local until you really know what you want first before buying overseas. Having said that tho...

So I don't know why I missed this before but you know that "relax, this is kitten play" scene in LC? Well when Indy walks past the table up to the window to swing on the whip, watch the whip on his hip. That classic handle slide to the floor happens to him in about three steps!! Sorry I do...

Looks nice man! I couldn't believe that I always thought it was the D ring until the hi def showed the buckle instead.

chenricy

I gotta admit that looks cool!

chenricy

Very nice jacket!

chenricy

Very nice man, you'll love it when it's broken in!

chenricy

Not sure this directly answers your question, but the IG site mentions that DM supplied bullwhips from six to sixteen feet long. I'd put my money on 16 feet in this scene and any other whip swinging scenes. That would make sense. Messing around with my 10 footer it kinda seems that a loose coil lik...

chenricy

Need the experts input here! We all know that 'officially' the whip is either 8 or 10 foot depending on what scene you are looking at (with variations occasionally). Now that I have those whips I noticed for the first time exactly how long the whip is that Indy swings over the lava to get the stones...

I can honestly say (no bs) that I LOVE my S&J jacket! I bought Wested and returned and bought US Wings and returned as well. Not saying ANYTHING is wrong with either fine establishments or products just did not work for me. I was hesitant to order the jacket from overseas again but I cannot be h...

poor guy is trying to find any excuse he can to carry a whip (I would assume a dream of all of us) and you guys poo-poo him. I say good enough for me, don that fedora, find a whip holder that won't let the whip move as you walk (good luck with that btw) and use the dogs as an excuse if someone asks....

oh my god that looks beautiful dude!

My first Indy fedora was a wool felt fedora. I wore that in FL. I sweat in it but did not care. I was bloody Indiana Jones mate! :mrgreen: Then I moved on to my AB beaver. I wear that a lot and sweat in it a lot. But I never overheat and have never fainted from being too hot with it on. I never hav...

Gorgeous. I am definitely getting the CS whip next, love the colors.

chenricy

The reason I went with D rings on mine is because I read the square buckles are murder on couches and car seats and such. Is this still the case?
