Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Tupelo bandolier by Nick Asadi/Tombstone Leather. Original brown overdyed to mahogany, giving a rich, darker hue. Unused in match. Loops size- formed with dummy shells. 12 ga with 14 loops per side, total 28 (for those "all shotgun stages....). 12 loops per side for .38/.357. Thought of it for use with '97 and '87, but I fumble less with my double..... so time for a new home. New price was $150 and tax, as new condition $110 shipped CONUS. PM for remittance details and with your address. SPF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninety Caliber Al, 50218 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 What size is it? How big an “old boy” are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494 Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 Howdy 90--- I wasn't aware of sizes. here is some ability for adjustment at the end where the lacing joins the two pieces together. As the blurry 3rd photo shows, they are bias cut. I just measured it and the small dimension is 22" and the larger dimension is 24". I wear a 42-44 suit coat (when I must), and the fit was good.

Yes, I believe they are sized. I wear a 56 (chest ) so I’m guessing it would not fit. I’ve been investigating the bandolier lately as I truly hate wearing a shotgun belt lol.

I’ll post some photos later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494 Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 It would not be difficult t add a softer leather piece at the laced joint. It would also allow it to drape more comfortably on the shoulder.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Fire, SASS 10064 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 FYI. I have one of these and it is very well made. Nick does a great job on his work . well worth the asking price. Bump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Hombre Sin Nombre Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I'd be all over this if the loops were 44/45. I have one and love it. I use it for every match, so I probably could use a backup someday. Mine is getting pretty warn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
