Can anyone suggest a good Indy gun belt substitute - basically looking for something like the NH offering but a more economic version. Suitable belts can be hard to find around this neck of the woods. Any ideas?

Hummm
Your location (Scotland) kind of hobbles us over here in the U. S., as we've found suitable substitutes at stores such as Wal-Mart and Old Navy. If you can locate such a store in your area (I'd bet Old Navy has a presense in the U.K.), you can find a decent substitute to hold you until you can get either a Keppler or a NH. Regards. Michaelson

Understood
Old Navy is a fashion type store that mainly specializes in clothing over here. I'm not sure HOW far reaching they are, but then one never knows about companies like that. Hope you find something! High regards. Michaelson

Indiana Ken,
Hello again, I have a Noel Howard Gun-Belt with a wip-holder attached to it that I purchased roughly 2 years ago. I also have a Webley gun holster with it as well from International Military Anitques (Last Crusade style holster).
I really enjoy these items, but I don't use them like I do the Jacket, shirt, pants, and MKV II bag. If you would want a Noel Howard gunbelt with a whip holder attached, as well as the Webley holster, I would be willing to sell them to you. Let me know whats up if you are interested.
Regards!

Renderking-
I have noticed the same thing! We had several very local to me that are no longer there (now that I need them). I do not know if it is a coincidence of not, but the popularity of the Goodwill/Salvation Army stores has been increasing. There are three within five miles of me. I picked up an L.L. Bean field shirt for $5.00.
There are a lot of military shirts and pants in these stores as well. I am still waiting for the vintage A-2 horsehide flight jacket. There supposed to be a big Army/Navy store in Nashua, but I have not found it yet.
