SOLD. Up for sale are two custom made gun belts.
1. The first is a Black Horsehide 1.25 inch x 34 inch from The Beltman in Apex, NC. It has a chrome buckle, 7 holes, and has been worn exactly 5 times.
They run $80 plus shipping. I'll go $60 shipped CONUS.
"http://thebeltman.net/horse.htm:
Horse hide is a denser material and thus it is more abrasion and moisture resistant. Because the leather is denser, this is the stiffest gun belt we make. The internal stiffener would rarely be necessary on a belt that is this stiff already. Horse hide also lends itself to a greater degree of sheen when polished. Many professionals appreciate the look, quality and durability of horse hide.
CONSTRUCTION:
Our horse hide belts are made in the same exacting manner as our other dual layer gun belts; that is, an outer layer of submersion dyed horse hide is mated to an un-dyed layer of 7oz. bull hide (see picture), and stitched together with heavy-duty nylon. The belt is then given an incredibly fine level of edge beveling and polishing, making the dual layer belt look like one piece of leather. The final waxing and hand buffing with lambs wool makes this a belt you will be proud to wear for many years to come!"
2. The second is a Brown Bullhide 1.5 inch by 35 inch from A&G Custom Gunleather. It also has a chrome buckle, but only has 5 holes, and is marked IR (irregular) due to a misplaced Chicago screw. The placement can be seen clearly in the photos, but is completely covered by the belt when around the waist. It has been worn only twice, and is essentially new. A quick Google search will turn up tons of good photos and positive reviews.
This one is $40 shipped CONUS.
Thanks.
