Buffalo Leather Bullet Pouch

[jungle_re]

Make this up for myself from Buffalo leather. Done as a bit of a prototype, im quite pleased with the outcome but have learnt a few lesson in the construction which will enable me to get a better finish from doing things in a slightly different order.
Holds 5 (my mag size) .243 or .308 rounds and possibly other calibres.
Design of the straps allows it to fit over really large belts and buckles due to the way they open up. All hand stiched leather; you should be able to tell
Thoughts and constructive criticism welcome

Very nice work that. Buffalo's lovely stuff isn't it.

Very neat! - I love the idea of the wrap around / open fully design....... may have to keep the idea in mind........

one comment - not intended as a criticism though as it is probably a trick of the light but if you dampen the edges with water / spit (Mmmmmm leather ) and rub briskly with a smoothe bit of bone / plastic / spoon handle etc you will neaten the edges and make them all nice and smoothe like. Then again as I said it could just be the photos

Excellent work - where did you get the buffalo from?

Cheers Guys for the comments. Aye the edges are quite smooth and have been finished with edgekote. The buffalo came from a generous friend.
