Members ruthless Posted February 2, 2010 Members Report Posted February 2, 2010 I'm looking for these buckles ... http://www.toowoombasaddlery.com.au/detail.php?PID=156&grp=21 http://www.toowoombasaddlery.com.au/detail.php?PID=152&grp=21 Clearly I've found them, but they're ridiculously expensive compared to Weaver's prices, so I'm wondering if anyone knows anywhere else that sells them. OTB and Weaver don't have them. They have similar, but I want these exact ones cause I'm fussy! Quote

Tony. Really? I looked in their catalogue and couldn't see any the same. How much are they? If it's not too much trouble, could you take a photo of it? From the side and from above? Phone pics are fine, I just want to see the shape and the depth of the bar. Quote

I'll do that for you tomorrow as I've just knocked off and left the workshop. Tony. Edited February 2, 2010 by tonyc1 Quote

I've bought them from Lefflers and Tophand and I prefer the finish on the SS ones from Lefflers. The Brass is english brass which is much better than the the Taiwan stuff and is dearer of course. The brass one is only 7/8" as I'm out of 1" but the inch ones cost $3.78. The SS buckles are 1" and cost 2.85. Hope this helps. Tony. Quote

Members ruthless Posted February 3, 2010 Author Members Report Posted February 3, 2010 Thanks Tony, it's not the kind I'm looking for though. The outside bars [for want of a better word] are thicker than the one I'm looking for. I think the one on the left is your one. I want the one on the right. Birdsalls used to stock it but they don't anymore. Quote
