  1. I was having problems seeing and had it checked out seems i had cateracts. i had both eyes operated on and now I can see like a old buzzard The cost wasn't to bad, My insurance deductible was $150.00 per eye That includes everything But the eye drop meds were HIGH. I needed 3 eye drops My co pay was $15.00 each for 2 and $75.00 for the 3rd OUCH !!!!!!
  2. I disagree with a veg tan liner go with a suede type liner, be it Pig, goat or deer or elk it is soft. veg tan will rub the blue off the gun over time

  8. use a empty felt tip pen / magic marker , did it in the paint and do your thing
  9. I have a differing opinion. I use veg tan for the holster but prefer Buffalo or Bison for the belt It is much stiffer and you can forget about the belt folding up due to the weight of the holster as far as my holster being in the rain? NEVER, It is under my rain gear If my holster is wet then my gun is wet and that my friend is Unacceptable If your hunting buds are that concerned with water, Then learn to sew canvas and use military web belts

  14. The silicone cell phone cases simply clip onto the phone, They cover the 4 sises and the back of the phone. I would say glue the leather to the back
