Bag makers

[Bushfire]

Anyone got recommendations for bag makers?

Thinking of getting either a belt bag or a double bag so I'm not swapping between calibre bits and bobs constantly.

Thanks

I got mine from Track of the Wolf and I am very happy with it.

If money is an issue , and you wish to buy an inexpensive shot pouch and customize it yourself , Crazy Crow has a web catalog with several inexpensive kits , and finished pouches. They also have the run of the mill expensive pouches for those well blessed. Another website is Mountain Top Trading Co. on line catalog . Prices are good ,and good selection. For my tastes , I like to buy a pouch , a kit , or finished pouch , under $50, and modify it to my specs.. ..................oldwood

Appreciate the replies fellas, but I’m after a custom bag maker. Something made in the states by hand to my specifications is what I’m looking for.

Leather man is probably your best option. Turkey foot trading also turns out real nice bags
Got an ox yoke Thad forty five and still ticking

Agree with all suggestions. And for a custom bag Leather Man would be best.

I think the OP is looking for a craftsman that he can talk to and get a custom bag made to his specifications, The Leatherman has nice bags but to my knowledge you can not talk to him and get him to make anything out of his ordinary bags.

He will not even make a custom sling for a Jaeger I have, I know, I tried.

Surely there is someone who will at least try to make a bag for the OP to his specs.

Look for the "The Hunting Pouch" group on Facebook. There are several there who can make one.

Look up Po-boy Luke. His bags are top notch and he makes excellent single and double pouches. He is on the CLA site, Skills of the 18th century site, etc. A google search should find him. He has a facebook page called PoBoy leather.

Go to the Contemporary Longrifle Association website and you will find an array of makers of various stages of quality and authenticity.

PoBoy no longer takes commission work unfortunately.

Look up Bill Smith Black Powder, maker of fine bags and powder horns. His work in first class.

Do you have one of his bags?

No, not yet. When I get my Kibler SMR, his is the only bag that looks like it belongs with it.

I tried to check them out, but could not get in, tried to register but Administrators blocked any new members.

There are bag makers selling bags on this forum every day!
If you don't see what you want, contact one or all of the makers with your plans, and see what they would charge. The more details you can show, the better for the estimates.
I bought a great bag and scrimshawed horn from Hawkeye Hugo, and I couldn't be more pleased!
Good luck with your search!

I think that site is a little long in the tooth. It may not be active now.
