Wade Egan ROTLA Gunbelt, TOD gunbelt, Mk VII strap PICS!

Post by ReturningSon »

Well, my new stuff from Wade came in the mail today!


I had ordered a TOD gunbelt with whip holder from Wade a while ago and I loved the work so much, I bought a ROTLA gunbelt with whip holder as well as a MK VII strap!!

ROTLA Gunbelt

The best I have seen. So nice to handle and the feel is great! This handmade leather belt and whip holder is made using top grade 10 oz oak leaf tanned leather and is hand dyed to match the on screen original. Featuring accruate end cuts as well as buckle holes. The buckle and belt loop keepers are made of steel.

Simply put, one of the nicest rigs out there!!

Another fantastic piece from Wade. This belt was hand made utilizing fine and screen accurate bison brown leather. Featuring an accurately styled steel buckle as well as end cuts and buckle holes that match the on screen original. Features a whip holder that can be slid off the belt. So great and SA too!!!

Note: I also bought the Dark Brown webbing belt from Wade as well.

MK VII Strap

(Hard to see but the strap has hues of burgandy red)

This is gonna be Wade's claim to fame. I am not bashing Indy Magnoli here but Wade's strap is heavy and is the only strap I have run across where I would feel safe hanging from the side cannon barrel of a tank and not worrying about the strap breaking...(well, I don't know if I would feel 'safe' but you get the point). Wade's buckles are heavy and made of solid brass.

You guys, Wade is the man for Indy's leather goods. Really, really awesome stuff and suberb workmanship. Thanks Wade!!!

I also just received my ROTLA belt and whipholder from Wade. Very fast shipping and very nice quality. I have one on order from Lee Keppler as well, when I do eventually receive it, I'll try and post some comparison picks.


Peace.

yeah, now I am thinking about ordering a LC gunbelt. Lee is a great guy but he does take a while to deliver his stuff. I ordered a CS gunbelt rig from him a month ago and still have not recieved it. As soon as I get it, I will post some comparision pics between all three belts!

Congrats on the belt! I got mine a few days ago and it is great! I would reccomend Wadeventure's belt to anyone. I especialy love the way he solved the "keeper placing issue" :clap: What a great way to make sure wa can choose our own SA keeper placement!

Hey guys! Thanks for the great reviews! Glad you like your gear.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be a vendor at this year's Queen Mary Summit November 7, 8, and 9, in Long Beach California. I will have a table full of gear at Fort MacArthur on Saturday, November 8th.

If you're in California or nearby, you won't want to miss this weekend! It will definitely be a good time.

Otherwise, if you have questions about gear, don't hesitate to email me direct.

Thanks,

Wade
