All of these bags are well done and remarkable!  Robby, yours especially catches my eye based on its simplicity and looks.  Of course, it doesn't hurt either that it is with a nice SMR and left handed at that.😎

Marc and Robby thanks for posting your bags.
Marc your work fits right in there with the rest. I like your bag and the workmanship is tops.
Robby I like your bag also. It looks great with that fine looking left handed SMR. I just recently started making parts for a left handed Tenn. Mtn. rifle for one of my grandsons who is left handed.

I'll share my three rigs.  In the first picture, the set on top is a bearded bag with horn and accouterments by T. C. Albert.  The lower bag is by Darrell Lang with a sun-rise motif tooled in.  The horn I bought from Dixon's in PA.  I have the horn maker's name somewhere but unfortunately I seem to have misplaced it. 



When i was still shooting (arthritis has made me more of a collector now), the below set was my go-to, everyday gear.  It is a double bag with a simple horn.  They were very inexpensive and I bought them both years ago, but separately, from that go-to accessory store Ebay.

Here’s a small (6 1/2” wide by 7” deep) double pouch that I just finished up. Veg tanned cowhide, hand-woven strap, cordovan Fiebing’s dye, brass buckle on the adjustment strap, handmade brass rings for the strap-bag connection.

Thanks for the kind words, fellers. I’m primarily a hunter/backyard shooter, so I don’t carry a lot...a small bullet board, a starter, a wallet with extra flints/leathers/turnscrew/jag, and a piece of waxed canvas to cover the lock in case it rains.  I load and prime from the same horn...less bother that way. This pouch will be plenty roomy for my use. Now if I was shooting trail walks, it might be a different story!

Wow, everything is absolutely beautiful, the creativity is incredible. From simplicity to complex bags.

Some very nice bags here with superb craftsmanship. However regardless of style, I'm drawn to the ones that show actual hard use.

Here’s a special field bag that’s seen plenty of smoke. Made by our own “Marcruder”.

James Roberts:

you should be  total ashamed of yourself.

Those bags are stunning.

I like working with leather, but you are a master.  If you taught a class I would have to give some serious consideration.

I have always admired your work sir.

I view James Rogers work like a guitarist views Eric Clapton at a concert.  Either you are highly inspired and motivated to get better, or you are totally demoralized.  :-D  So far, I am trying to stay on the side of inspired.  Go James!  God Bless,   Marc

Here a a couple nice bags and horns. I haven't gotten them set up yet but they will definitely be in the woods this Fall Lord willing. Both bags are made by forum member scottmc. I think he does great work. The light colored bag is a copy of an original out of Unicoi, TN and the nice little horn with a squirrel hide repair on the butt end. The other dark bag is accompanied by a neat little original horn.

Here is one I just about have finished.  All leather work is calf skin by me.  A bit more sewing has been done.  Horn is by Art DeCamp and strap by Kris P.  I am waiting on a patch knife and brush and pick.....  Should be finished this week

This is the bag I've used for over 30 years. Five pockets by Don Rose in Michigan.
