Home Made Spencer Bandoleer for 56-52 Cartridges **** PHOTOS ADDED ***

[hendrick]

Hello SSS,

Thought you'd be interested in what I made at home for my Spencer.

The bandoleer is approx 5 feet around made from small scrap pieces from the wifes sewing room. It will hold either six 56-52 pouches of 7 rounds each or six strips holding 10 45-70 rounds or any combination thereof.

The third photo also shows the wooden shape holder for the pouch and the flock that fits inside the block drilled to hold 7 56-52 rounds. The ends of the pouches are lapped over and held with six rivets on each end. The back has two screw rivets for changing of pouches on belt. The front flap hold down is just a stud. All metal supplies came from Tandy Leather. Hope I described this right.
