It's obvious that you are more knowledgeable than I am about leather working.
After a few years of looking, the airgun goes have finally shined upon me and I scored a Sheridan E pistol for as good of a price as I'll probably ever get.It's in beautiful condition too, hopefully it works but I'll cross that bridge when it gets to me.

Been looking quite a while for a pistol Mate to my F. I'd have good money for an E in that condition.CONGRATS!
That is a good family story.. usually the way heirlooms are made!
A gun that took 100 years to make

They were finally back in stock at PA so I ordered 6 tons of H&N FTT .20's.I sure wish they were available in tins of 500, but then I also wish the pellets I used to buy were still available.I don't know how I'll like these lighter weight pellets over the 14.3's I'm used to shooting in Ol' blue but they just may be ideal for the E pistol when it arrives.
