Finished my cartridge belt

I finished up my cartridge belt for my matching holsters. I'm very pleased with how they turned out. This will be my main match rig at the shoots. Can't wait till next weekend now so I can wear it to the meet!

Here are some pics.

Thats a good looking rig love the color and its just a darn good looking rig *(WELL DONE)

WOW, that is really top drawer. I really like the ammo strip and the way you matched it to the billet lines, very classy. You can bet this old thief will try some of those ideas soon! Now you need to design a holster to ride under the buckle for the little belly gun. My philosophy has always been, if you cant beat them with speed then surprise them with cunning.

I found it at a little Pioneer Days sale at my local fairgrounds about two months ago! Its hand hammered silver to boot! He only had one and sold it to me pretty reasonable! Thought it made a neat addition to the outfit!

Very good get.

Good job!

Your work is very nice. There's nothing like a cool two toned rig.
What is the design in the circle at the bottom of the holster?

Johnny McCrae · June 01, 2010, 11:29:50 AM

Beautiful job! I know you will get lots of compliments at your match. Wait till someone asks where you bought it and you can proudly reply "I made it myself". Thank you for showing it to us.

The symbol in the circle on the holsters is the one I designed to be my makers mark if I ever get around to buyin it. It is a double L ( the L's are back to back) See the pic below.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. Honestly though, I owe a lot of you many thanks for the help and advice you have all given to me with my projects. I know I could not have learned as much as I have in the time I have been doing this if it were not for all of you. Thanks pards!! Thanks a bunch!

Very cool!
I would love to have a symbol to represent my work.
But so far all I got is my name.
