I need to get some nylon webbing, fastex buckles, and tri-glides. Does anyone know a source besides ebay? I don't care to deal with international ordering and shipping. I'm trying to convert my sourdough pancake holster into a white trash Diamond D on the cheap.

Hope you get good replies. I am looking also and like you don't want to fool with ebay.

Here are 2 sites that I've used with excellent success. QUEST OUTDOORSSEATTLE FABRICSSeveral years ago, I made a 10x10 silnylon wall tent from fabric from Seattle Fabrics. It was good stuff and the service was excellent.

If you have an Army/Navy surplus store handy, they might be worth a look. Heck, I'd stop by just to look even if I didn't really need anything!

Saddle shops also often carry a bunch of different buckles, snaps, etc.

pabucktail,
IF you have a Farmer's Coop nearby, that is often a good place to look for such things.
(I once had a set of perfectly serviceable "training harness" for my mustang mare made from nylon strapping/buckles/etc. from our county's Coop. - NOT expensive either.)
A TANDY store isn't cheap but the stores are usually well-stocked.

Thanks for the idea, but I forfeited easy shopping for good hunting and fishing a long time ago.

What you are looking for are called "findings" in the trade, Google findings and you will come up with several excellent domestic sources. Tandy store can be a good walk-in source too, the trick is finding one. There is a large Tandy store right across from the Bass Pro Shop's store in Springfield, MO, I visited there after the National Firearms Museum at BPS.
