Beaverslayer Report post Posted January 10, 2008 Very nice indeed, I like the color as well. Here in Canada you'd get a few years in jail for such a thing. Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jordan Report post Posted January 10, 2008 Excellent, good color, very clean sewing, I noticed on one of the rivets the same problem I have when the stud is a bit to long. It makes that dimple, one of the books I have recommends no more than 1/16" sticking above the level of the leather. That works pretty good for me, except when I give the setter to good of a thump with the mallet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gunfighter48 Report post Posted January 10, 2008 Very nice looking leather work. The stitching is very nice, clean, and precise. John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rsg3 Report post Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) Jordan, thanks for the tip on the rivet dimple, i guess i can nip it off with a set of side cutters to make them a little shorter. The stitching never seems like it is quite good enough, especially on a belt. Seems like every inch or two i change my mind as to whether or not i like it. I guess it will get better in time. Beaverslayer, i don't quite follow you on the going to jail thing, i guess you are referring to the handguns. thanks everyone for the nice comments.

Jordan Report post Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) If I remember right Canada took away peoples guns, I read an artical years ago how alot of real fancy and rare weapons were destroyed, maybe just nra propaganda story I can't remember the details, I am sure a friend from the north will fill us in.

Beaverslayer Report post Posted January 10, 2008 Yes Jordan that's about right. Now you have to be VERY special to be able to own hand guns. As you said, a lot of old and very expensive guns were destroyed, because our feably government thought that the criminal eliment was going to use them in their street wars or something. You can go to a gun club and spend a bit of money and shoot a loaner gun for an hour or so, but that's it. We still have hunting rifles, but you have to have a permit, no criminal record, and if not granfathered in, you have to take hunter training as well. It's also against the law to lend your rifle to your brother or friend for them to use while hunting. And hand guns as concealed carry, minimum 4 years in jail.
