  1. I have that same exact belt. I use it for field carry but not SASS. I wore it for precisely one match (my second CAS match years ago) before seeking out something better. The shells do sit deep in the loops which are a little on the loose side so you won’t be able to set shells high for an easy grab without them either slipping out or back down into the loop. Also, the belt is a synthetic material, more like tactical gear, with minimal leather. You would do better with a SG belt from one of the more reputable makers, or at least a decent slide. There are some great leather makers out there as mentioned above. I currently wear a Murphy Custom Gun Leather rig; it’s great quality and I highly recommend their work.
  2. Thanks! So the single six would be considered a ‘small frame’ revolver compared to the Vaquero? I’ve never actually handled one.
  3. So the shooters handbook section six, Firearms Covenants states the following regarding swapping out hammers: "Hammers may be replaced or exchanged with hammers designed for the same frame size (e.g., small frame revolver hammers may not be installed on large frame revolvers or vice versa)." Could someone give me an example of something that run afoul of this rule, small frame vs large frame revolver? Does this prohibit using an Original Model Vaquero style hammer in NMV? Also, under the general firearms part of section six, it references reprofiling, "All parts may be smoothed, re-profiled, polished, de-burred, or replaced provided they are not prohibited in these Covenants..." I am assuming when folks are referring to reprofiling hammers, that would mean, cutting, welding, bending/reshaping etc? Thanks in advance.
