Hi y'all.
I am looking for some reproduction leather accoutrements. I am looking for cartridge boxes and cap pouches that are of pretty good quality, but that don't cost an arm and a leg. I will be using these in the field for target shooting and hunting, so they gotta be durable and functional....nothing shoddy, and nothing super-expensive, please.
Is there a particular brand name, or a particular item on one of the vendor websites that you would recommend? The problem with many vendor websites is they don't name a particular brand, so I have no idea if it's the same item as another vendor, there are no specs on the quality/thickness of the leather, nor are there "reviews" where people rate their satisfaction with the product...so I am looking for your advice based on your own practical experience.
I am looking for a musket cap pouch, a 58 cal cartridge box (ideally the Enfield pattern), a cartridge box for a Sharps carbine, and a pistol cartridge box. If the Forum doesn't allow specific items/links from a website to be listed here, then please send me a PM. Ideally, I'd love to be able to see such items at a show, before I buy them, but it's been my experience that such vendors aren't at the shows...you just find odds and ends that people are selling off...am I wrong about that?
Thanks everyone for your help.
