LEATHER GOODS & GAUNTLETS

CONFEDERATE DOUBLE TONGUE BUCKLE


  You seldom find anyone offering this buckle for sale. It's always been a favorite of mine. Recently, (2007) several of these were unearthed on part of the original Battle of Murfreesboro site where a shopping mall was being built. That was all the excuse I needed to have these "made up". I hope you like them as much as I do. If you would like to see one of the recently found originals, just go to our links page and click on the Rutherford County Boys link. If you know your relics, Mullinax's book, Confederate Belt Buckles & Plates (1991, first eddition) list these as a rariety 7.

  Confederate model black leather cap pouch. This Cap Pouch is an exact replica of the most common style of Confederate Cap Pouch known. It has the one belt strap loop that is so common of all Confederate styles. The outer flap come over and fastens underneath. The leather is top quality cow hide and the quality of construction is excellent. You will not be disappointed. If you are a little tired of carrying generic leather gear maybe it's time for a change?

FLAG CARRIER



  If you've ever been the flag barer on a long parade you know just how important this simple little item is. Our sling is made from top grain leather with a iron roller buckle and has about 8 inches of adjustment so you get that "just right" fit regardless of your height. The socket is large enough to fit any normal flag staff. The sling is also contoured to fit comfortably on the back of your neck without digging in. If you are your company's standard barer take my advice and don't wait for the company to pay for this. Order it yourself, it's worth the price.

SPENCER REPEATING RIFLE CARTRIDGE BOX & SLING

  Every once and a while you see a reproduction that makes you step back and look again. This cartridge box is one of those reproductions. It looks great!
If you own a Spencer you have probably already looked around for one of these. Can you believe some companies are asking $200.00 each, American, not pesos! I'll put the Blockade Runner box up against theirs any day. Stitch for stitch I think ours may be a little better.
The photo shows the box resting on it's top to expose the 6 tubes. It has an implement pouch just like the original and the sling is included, not an extra added expense. And yes it does have the belt loop on the back. The box measures 13 inches long and approx. 2 x 3 inches wide. The leather, the stitching and the hardware are all first rate. I think you'll agree.
But the best part may be the price. Only $129.95

IN STOCK! 56-50 cal. Perfect in every respect. Tubes slide in and out easily.

CARBINE BOOT

  A carbine socket is that little round gizmo that straps onto your saddle near the stirrup. When your carbine is not in use you just stick the barrel of it into the center of the "socket" to keep it from beating your leg black and blue. It's a pretty handy little item. It's hard to use your carbine sling without one.

PISTOL HOLSTERS

  Right hand butt forward (sets on your right hip) is what's called for if your wearing a saber. This holster is made from top grade cow hide and is guaranteed to hold its shape. It fits any of the common pistols Colt or Remington .36 or .44 cal. It will not fit a Lamatte or a Dragoon.

LEFT HAND BUTT FORWARD (SETS ON YOUR LEFT HIP) or SITS ON YOUR RIGHT HIP, BUTT TO THE REAR COWBOY STYLE.
#35-B     $24.95   BUY NOW!


  There has been some confusion in the past about which holster is which. For a saber belt you always get a right hand butt forward. This sets on your right hip with the butt forward. Why? Because all saber belts are set up with the saber on your left hip. They must be drawn with your right hand. There is no such thing as a left handed trooper, never was. Now that you have a saber in your right hand the only way to draw your pistol is with your left thats why the holster sets on your right hip with the butt forward.

  If you want to put a holster on your belt so you can draw right handed like a cowboy you want a left handed butt forward so when it's worn on the right hand side the pistol butt will be to the rear. Simple huh?

FRINGED GAUNTLETS

AVAILABLE IN BROWN OR BLACK


  When I see fringed gauntlets the first thing that comes to my mind is Buffalo Bill, General Custer & Annie Oakley. When an outfit needs a little flair, a little showmanship, this item is just the trick. I think our young officer from the 2nd Mass. Cav. would agree with me. (Photo dated 1862)
  You'll never find better quality, this the top of the line. They fit and feel great. You can count on years of use and good service from these soft comfortable gloves, dress up your act!

LEATHER CANTEEN SLING

  This leather canteen sling is by far the best I have ever seen on the market. I really like the black iron buckle. The sling is made from 2 pieces of top grain leather that are scarft, overlapped and stitched together. The stitching is great and it's long enough for even the tallest guy. Short guys like me may have to cut a little off the end to make your canteen ride correctly. We show this sling being used on a 1858 smooth side canteen. There are a couple of period photos showing filter canteens with leather slings. But this is by no means the only correct use for this sling. We do not sell filter canteens. The spout for the rubber hose just breaks off too easily as was the problem on the original.
