Out of business. Retired mine and went to the Final Rise.

Like the Final Rise better.

I do not like the metal buckle because it scratches the shotgun when I carry it it cross body and in the crook of my arm.

I like Dan's hunting gear...I am using old Filson strap vests but when/if they wear out I will replace with Dan's gear.

Self-adhering bandage wrap works to protect gunstocks from buckles the same as inner tube or moleskin, pictures of which were previously posted in this thread.

I dislike them because your shoulders bear all the weight on those 2 inch straps when carrying dead pheasants. Buckles are another issue.

They're made with belts too.

Anyone know anything about Ideal? I have one I bought in the early 1990s and have only worn it a few times, mostly just for carrying shells on sporting clays courses. It's virtually brand new. It's very well made. I can't find anything on the company, which must be out of business.

Has anyone tried the strap vest from Dove Gear? I'm thinking about it pretty hard.
