Mongo Report post 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).

Mongo Report post 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.

Check www.nationalwebbing.com . They advertise 3" in natural. Hope this helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh jeez, didn't even think of minimums with them. 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.

Mongo Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
