    Cartridge Box Cross Strap - LONG one needed

    The standard size Springfield Cartridge Box cross strap is about 72"

    We just got a new member and he needs something longer, otherwise, the box sits above his belt line

    Does anyone know where we can find a long one?

    Thanks

    Try Dell's Leather Works. They specialize in Civil War leather goods.
    I bought a cavalry cartridge box from them at a Spring National a couple years ago. Their quality is superb!

    I checked their website and they will make a longer strap.
