Anyone have a source for Cavalry Carbine Cartridge Box, in Brown or russet color leather. About all I can find is Black leather goods. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks RC

eBay has them cheap. Like $24.95 = $5.95 shipping

Normal carbine box which holds 12 rounds if you make yer own wood block:

And the Enfield style which hold 23 rounds if you put a wood block in it. Same price as above:

Call them. They may knock some off if you tell them you don't want the metal tins inside them.

Check out Border States Leatherworks, Doug Kidd makes everything the CW equestrian soldior would need.
Or you could try Shawn's Custom Saddles or Nick Duvall Leatherworks. Nick is expensive but there is none more detailed. As with anything in the hobby, nothing cheap lasts long. Good luck

Well you're going to need two of these boxes if you shoot with the Iredell Bs.

When I was a young skirmisher, many, many, MANY, years ago, I used to shoot really fast.

I have since learned to slow down, concentrate, and miss slowly. :D I waste less ammo thataway. :)
