Strap with Military Ribbon Color Design ????
« on: July 27, 2014, 02:25:33 AM »
Not long ago I think I saw a post here that included a powder horn strap that was made in the colors and pattern of a military service ribbon, but I can't find it.  Anyone know how to get to the post or who made the strap?

Thanks

Dave C

I've seen straps made in the same pattern as the Vietnam Service Ribbon, but in order to get the vibrant colors, they were made of synthetic material. An accomplished shooter at Friendship has his Marine Corp cap device attached to his shooting bag in a very tasteful manner.

Dave,
Kris Polizzi made my Afghanistan Campaign horn strap--great job, all cotton thread.  She has done several--different campaigns.  Can post pics if you like.

Carl,

Pictures would be great as well as contact information for Kris.  Thanks

John,

Is the post still in the For Sale section...I still can't find it.  Can you tell me who posted it?

 One was on the posting from Ottawa ref books and building horns,, just like the one in the posting on this subject...  I make a Viet Nam ribbon strap and sent it  to Mrs,Smoke forgot who won it last years ..If you have a ribbon Kris should be able to weave it,,,, The strap I wove had both the Viet Nam Service and Viet Nam Campaine ribbon on it..

You can order from Kris confident that you will be very pleased when it arrives in the mail. She is super talented and a great lady. I am a repeat customer, and she is always gracious in spite of my personality!  :-)  Best wishes, Marc
