I concur! Get us some pics of the back!

huh, that doesn't look half bad for the sales price...I'll await your detailed photos

whoa, that does resemble shrunken lamb:

Not to be overly critical,but it does have a rather funky looking seam across the front in line with the top of the pockets. Neat leather though. A pic of the back WILL be interesting.

I'll try to get pics up soon. Is shrunken lamb good or bad????

Interesting find! If you used a gift card and got it on the cheap...great job. However, for argument's sake, you can get a Wested for less.

Looks nice. Body length seems a little too long though (compared to the sleeves) for a Raiders jacket.

It can't be shrunken lamb... for one its only $300...

Ah, there was the shot. 12 posts in, people are slipping.

Only noticed one? Hmm... might be time to invest in a pair of these:

*rustle, rustle*, (...rummaging around for an ammo box, some cover, and a bag of popcorn )

I probably should have just stayed my typing hand but I get so tired of the digs at the TN. I'm not rich by any means and, to be honest, I sometimes still wonder if I was crazy for buying my Indy I but I really love the jacket so I'm happy I did get it. I fully understand why someone wouldn't buy it because of the price. But why take the shots? Just don't buy it and let it go already.

Back on topic, other than the seam that raider 57 pointed out, that's not a bad looking jacket at all. Again, the pictures of the back should be interesting.

You're right, I don't know whats gotten into me tonight... too much sake I guess (and I don't really drink... maybe thats the problem). I mean, I don't know Peter from Nowak or Hack from Magnoli, etc., etc... I have a Todds Raiders, TN CS, Wested ToD, and there's things that I like about all of them (and maybe when I have enough money, I might drop Magnoli a line for an LC)... its just that to me, it sometimes seams like there's a disproportionate amount of shots going in one particular direction around here lately. Anyway next time I'll just ...

And I do like that leather on the Cabela's jacket, hopefully Jr. Jones will let us know if it looks the same as it does on their website...

I've been wanting to try a Todd's for a long time and with his bigger sizes, I might do that soon. I've been thinking about a Magnoli LC myself. The Magnoli Wolverine jacket I own is superb and his LC is one of the closest out there I've heard.

What size are those pockets? They look a little ToD-ish

Is that a seam running horizontally through the center of the jacket at the top of the pockets?

Yes, the lambs shrunk too much to make it out of one piece

Peter said that would happen..........

Discussed earlier. I never heard what Sarge found out. http://indygear.com/cow/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=33744

Cabela's is still selling them, so I guess the Lawyers are still working on it or weren't successful.
I wonder if the Cabela jacket was made in the same Chinese factor that made the Lottery jackets, which were a US wings knock off?

Why are there 2 threads about this?

Kyle

Because Jr. Jones bought one and wanted to let us know about his purchase. He didn't know about the other thread apparently.

EDIT: oh, and he promised us to show pics
