Great vest Simon, blackhawk used to make a tac vest with the front compleatly loaded with shell loops.

It held 160 shells or something like that, no other pouches on the front.

Real "point mans" vest.

Sounds like an awesome vest <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Won´t be able to sew my thigh rig for some time. Was making a wooden sword to my sisters 5year old son and cut my self in the finger. 8 stitches later I´m back from the hospital <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> The nurse was impressed of the nice cutedges and ask if the knife was sharp... yup! I like to sharpen my FBM often <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Very nice pictures. I like the bit where you used the flint striker to get things going.
