Lacing cartridge loops, sure beats all the stitching…. Now I gotta look it up in my Packing Iron book. Thanks Santee great ideas! Have a great weekend.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Right on!

[@razztastic]

Hey Santee. Been watching for a few years now, just wanted to give you some well wishes from a former Texas boy now holed up in the middle of nowhere in Missouri. Your videos here on the Arizona Ghostriders channel has helped me more than you know in getting my old west knowledge up to snuff, and it makes for some interesting conversations with my dad. Keep up the good work!

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Awesome! Thanks and enjoy the state where all them famous Confederate Guerillas came from.

Very interesting method. Very different from most modern repros. Of course, it helps illustrate the need for reenactors (of all periods) to look at original sources instead of slavishly replicating always the same modern repros. Thanks, Santee.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

ALways good to have options.

[@lloydgaroutte7664]

The folks at River Junction are great, I’ve been making purchases since they opened many years ago. As a matter of fact, while cleaning out my re-enacting stash, I found one of their catalogs, #1 to be exact. I have been eyeing that very belt myself, looks nice and like you said a heavy leather loaded with 40 44-40 cartridges gets heavy quick! Good luck on the new job!

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Thank You!

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

I appreciate that!

[@RestlessHollow]

Another great video Santee! Funny story, I realized when watching it that my family and I met you at what I'm assuming is the new gig a couple of weeks ago. You seemed SO familiar to me and now I understand why! My 4 boys still talk about their cowboy friend they met in AZ. Anyway, wish I would have put two and two together so I could have told you in person how much I enjoy your content here.

[@WhatIsYourMalfunction]

Last week I just replaced my everyday custom leather gun belt (without loops) after 10 years. Still looks and works great, but I lost a fair amount of weight so I replaced it and got a ranger style belt. I have to say I like the leather tongue that goes under and into a loop -- it takes the pressure off the buckle and I find the belt doesn't try to roll over. Great topic. Thanks.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Great point!

[@halfcirclehranch6877]

My gun belts have usually been Amish leather work belts with belt slides added for cartridges as I need them. The buckles are usually held on by what looks like rivets, but they are actually screws on the backside, so the buckle can easily be changed. Gotta have my fancy silver belt buckles with real preserved scorpions encased in them.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Cool!

[@indigowolf556]

These videos are over just to quickly. And thank you for sharing about your new belt you must be really happy and satisfied with that. It's nice to know that there are people out there still who take a lot of pride and putting something together. 🤠🌵

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Thanks!

[@Chris_the_Dingo]

Nice belt. I've used River Junction in the past for Spanish-American War living history. The have some great stuff!

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Cool!

[@JakobElbaek]

I have the very same belt from River Junction. I like it a lot, it is very light, flexible and comfortable to wear. I used it, with a couple of River Junction holsters, as my first CAS rig, before I moved on to a dedicated CAS rig from Mernickle. I still use the River Junction rig for living history.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Cool!! I think you told me about it first, if I remember.

[@justdustino1371]

Awesome! I like that red leather. I got a regular red leather waist belt that was made in Mexico and is heavily embossed with flora designs. A lady in SoCal imports them and sells them. I pocket carry so I just need the belt to hold my breeches up, don't need them around my knees. Anyway, a famous Colt advertisement from the 1890s shows a ranch girl wearing a plain pistol belt and the holster itself has 6 loops for spare cartridges. I've seen an antique original version of that holster too. I can't imagine how heavy a belt would be with loops end to end! Especially a Mill's style Prairie Belt with .45-70 Government. 👍😎 .

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

I think about cops today and all the weight they have on their belt. This is nothing compared to them!

[@joemortimer1763]

Yep, thar, Santee. Ya dun dit it yet again! Great history on gun belts. Love River Junction products. Been wanting to get one of the hardware store belts for some time now. Siri looked real excited. Maybe it was your delivery when you told the joke to Jingles. 🤔 Good to see Ethan.

Great video Santee! Cartridge belts are "fun" to make! I've done a couple and they turned out pretty good, but boy, are they labor intensive!

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Sure are. I figured a sewing machine would knock one out much quicker

[@richardkluesek4301]

Santee, just fashioned a sort of cartridge belt for my wife's Ruger Police Service Six wheelgun and Henry Big Boy. Used a basic garrison belt and got a couple of Jay Pee police 18 cartridge loop sleeves on either side of the holster. Totally inauthentic for sure but it works for those firearms, Will check the link, thanks.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Sounds interesting!

[@NGMonocrom]

Nice video, and belt, Santee. But I was hoping you'd model it for us. Do a little turn on the catwalk. On the catwalk, yeah. 🤠

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Next time!

[@NGMonocrom]

@@ArizonaGhostriders SWEET! 😃

[@LukeA1223]

Did you know that by soaking the belt leather in water and letting it dry out in the sun it will shrink the leather to tighten up the bullet loops, the whole belt itself (so you don’t have to keep punching new holes) and lighten up the weight. Afterwards use febings leather conditioner sparingly on the grain side rather than grease or neatsfoot oil. Oil and grease make leather stretchy. I enjoy your channel, I always get at least a chuckle.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Yes, that can help. Sometimes it's just a bandaid though, like with this belt. Glad the channel educates and entertains you.

[@jjsadventures]

Very cool Santee! Beautiful belt and so glad you won’t lose anymore bullets

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Oh, I probably will. I found one in the dirt last week that I think I lost in 2019.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Thank You!

[@kenm8376]

I can't believe that I missed this video. But the timing was on target. I have a holster that was made in the 1880-1890's. And no, I ain't the original owner. I was thinking about how much I need a cartridge belt for it. I have a modern made, heavy leather one. But that's not something I figure even the old cowboys would wear as it would make for an uncomfortable ride if you had a bedroll pressing that stiff leather into your spine all day. I'll look at the site of which you spoke. Thanks for always pointing us in the right direction.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

It's significantly lighter.

[@CGRLCDR]

Very interesting. My current gun belt has no cartridge loops mainly because I don't want to be carrying a SAA and 18 .45 Colt cartridges around my waist. That stuff gets pretty heavy. My hat's off to Roy Rogers with the two gun rig and all those bullets.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Yeah, they do get heavy.

[@SmallCaliberArmsReview]

You know what this means! I'm gonna have to try another style of gunbelt....someday! Thanks for the really cool video Santee!

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

[@noonzeeb]

Santee l love your channel you always have great topics, this belt one is great because I have a money belt made by Collins & Morrison Omaha Nebraska that started as a pistol cartridge bud has been changed to a double loop for rifle at some point in its life , my grandfather and father used it for the krag 30 40 . I now just hang it on the wall for display.

Very interestingly informative, inspiring and awesome video, I really liked and enjoyed it. I learned a lot about different gun belts from the old west. Great job and well done, keep up the great work. I got a lot of inspiration for the old west and retrofuturism inspired story/series I’m working on writing. I’m definitely going to be adding different old West gun belts to my story alongside old west frontier attire. There’s also going to 90s and 2000s retrofuturism attire in my story as well. My story’s main character Mercia Hawkins will mostly be dressed in old west attire , well except for when he works at the main building of Gamelan investigative agency inc, where he is employed as one of the Mystery Z Files investigators. In my story Mercia is both a lawman deputy and a investigative-agent who investigates anomalous paranormal activity.

Enjoyed the video, thanks! May I put in a plug for my hometown gun leather maker, El Paso Saddlery Company? Their Cheyenne rig is a beautifully tooled work of art in a functional money belt style. The holster can be carried on either side giving a cross-draw option if you want to carry butt forward. I find that 24 loops are a nice compromise with weight.

They didn't ware gun belts with bullet loops on the TV show Bonanza, but when Guy Williams guest stared, he did have a gun belt with bullet loops......
