Greg, I checked TOTW but missed that one but 62 bucks is a bit more than I wanted to spend, although it is probably a good one. may end up with one to try just nakes the price of the final product higher. Elk Killer, will you send me a pic/price and let me see what you've got. PM or Email it is in my profile.

Thanks, Tim

Just have to keep a sharp eye out. Bought two full remade snakes at the Civil War show in Ohio. And found two shot pouches on eBay. I like the Irish style heads. I might have one for trade. Maybe trade a head for a small shot pouch to fit a head I have. Have to look and see where I put them.

The English heads are a bit better quality wise, as the spring is better. I have had a lot of trouble with the Irish spring that holds the scoop into the body. I have talked with Mr. Pedersoli a few times about quality control, and he did not seem pleased to have the subject brought up. He prefers praise for his products instead of criticism.
Frankly, I had forgotten completely about that for 12-13 years, every since I sold October Country. We used to carry the flask heads but I am not sure what the new owner is doing. With the increasing costs of them, probably not. Check it out at www.octobercountry.com
