Members Mongo Posted January 9, 2010 Members Report Posted January 9, 2010 I have a customer that wants a 3" wide Mill's style belt for his .45-70 rifle. I've got a source for the buckles and I can get webbing up to 2", but I've had no luck finding 3" cotton webbing. I would really prefer it in the natural color (not bleached white or mustard). Quote

Members hivemind Posted January 9, 2010 Members Report Posted January 9, 2010 Contact Sturges Straps - www.sturgesstraps.com - they do custom webbing of any material and any length, and made in the USA. Quote

Members Mongo Posted January 9, 2010 Author Members Report Posted January 9, 2010 Hivemind, From what Sturges website states, I think they could do it. It does state, however, under the FAQ section, that their minimum order is $500. If you know for a fact that they will take a smaller order, please let me know. I'd spend $100 just to have some in stock, but I don't think I want to stick $500 into it. Quote

Check www.nationalwebbing.com . They advertise 3" in natural. Hope this helps. Quote

They're one of my customers at my day job, and whenever I need some strapping for something I just ask they give me some. Sorry about that. Quote
Members Mongo Posted January 14, 2010 Author Members Report Posted January 14, 2010 Not your fault Hivemind. Denster, I called them once about 2" webbing a couple of years ago and they wouldn't budge from their $250 minimum order. Right now, I don't have the demand for these belts to justify the cost. Thank you very much for trying to help. Quote
Members Mongo Posted March 11, 2010 Author Members Report Posted March 11, 2010 I was helped out by another holster maker in Arizona. Thanks for all the suggestions. Quote
