OK I saw this thing once on a web site and can't find it again or anyone else that makes it. I am looking for a leather cuff that would hold two 45-70 shells. I found one cuff that holds a bunch but I am only looking for one with two loops in it, perferably that holds them pointing toward the hand. If anyone has any ideas to point me in the right direction it would be a great help. I know there is one that Uncle Mikes make but it isn't leather.
Thanks

I haven't seen anything like that in a while but why not make what you want if you can't find it?
I figure, from a scrap piece 12" by 12" piece of tool leather available at any craft or leather supply store you should be able to make one. Only tools you would need would be a metal ruler, straight blade utility knife, hole punch or awl and a sewing awl with waxed thread to sew on the two loops. $25 in tools and materials and a couple hours work and you would be good to go. Use a leather boot lace to lace up the underside to fit how you like. You might find others asking you how to make one, or you to make one for them.

A bit of advice, make a paper template first before you cut your leather. It will save you time, money and frustration. BTDT. Good luck!

Thanks for the reply, but I don't have in abillity or the ambition to do it my self. I did find a guy right from this site to make one for me. I don't know anything other than looking at his web site I'll let you all know how it comes out.
