Ambassador The Major Posted April 22, 2009 Ambassador Report Posted April 22, 2009 I've never heard of "Dubbin"....is that a brand name? Dubbin - AKA leather tallow or dressing. I would also like to comment about over oiling. Please exercise caution when oiling. Otherwise you will have a piece of leather that is like a wet noodle. I would dress it. and take it from there.

Members DG Leather Posted April 25, 2009 Members Report Posted April 25, 2009 I think i may have one or 2 solutions.....I hunt alot and stalk animals....and I started leather working.... First the one piece leather idea is on track....and yes this can be made as an adjustable piece even if it is one piece....the only downfall to position it you need a screw driver to undo the chigao screw....but there is no hunter i met that tops and adujusts equipment in midst of a hunt thats crazy making...... second....using veg tan i have bnn succesful with quiet 2 piece straps as well.....the one where you tool and goes to the front swivel on rifle.....then a strap that you run through the oblong punched holes twice then pass the strap through itself...this one is very adjustable......like a guitar strap.....i need to utilize this one in practicality though now.
