PastorBob Posted March 29, 2022 Report Posted March 29, 2022 That is a beautiful rig. I am not familiar with Cowboy shooting...are you limited to 10 rounds (6 in revolver + 4 in loop?) . If so, makes sense there are only 4 loops. Is there another reason for only 4? @blue62 Quote In God's Grace, Pastor Bob "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8 www.PastorBobLeather.com YouTube Channel

Is there another reason for only 4? @blue62 There are only 4 loops because they are for spare cartridges, otherwise a belt full of loops looks pretty cool, but it gets mighty heavy when they are full.

Is there another reason for only 4? @blue62 PastorBob, Cowboy Action Shooting (CAS) is considered a three-gun sport consisting of 2 single action revolvers, 1 lever action rifle and 1 shotgun . So, yes, you are limited to 10 rounds for revolvers, but not in the way you are visualizing. Each stage in CAS is comprised of 10 rounds in revolvers (5 rounds in each with hammer down on empty cylinder), 10 rounds rifle, and anywhere from 2-6 for shotgun. All three weapons are fired on a stage, and your are timed. Each miss adds 5 seconds to your stage time, and without going into a great amount of detail, time is also added if you don't shoot the targets in the correct order for that stage. So speed, accuracy, and a clear mind rule the day. There are usually 6 stages to a match, and a stage may require a single round reload in either the rifle, a revolver, or both, so this is where the bullet slide comes into play. If interested in finding out more, I suggest you check out the Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) here: SASS - Home of Cowboy Action Shooting (sassnet.com). blue62, I would be proud to wear that rig at a match. Well done. I agree, although not traditional of the old west, I think the blue stitching makes a great accent against the black leather. Great stamp job on the gun belt. QUESTION: Why the single loop on one holster, and a double loop on the other? Different length barrels? Edited May 20, 2022 by RemingtonSteel Quote
