A bud emailed me last week about his new 45/70 BFR. Sometimes we hunt together and last year he saw me with a shoulder rig for my 500 BFR. I let him harness it up and he liked how it wore. So, I knew what was coming next could I make him a custom one like mine. I told him I will do one better and told him I will give him mine. He came over that evening we made some adjustments as he is taller. One happy camper now. Now I needed to make myself a new shoulder rig. Instead of a figure eight strap I made a straight across strap which to me is comfier and less fuss to put on. My last rig was plain Jane no tooling the new one I tooled the holster and straps, installed a buffalo nickel snap that I made. Also tooled a deer on the front.
