Thanks guys, now that i figured out how to post, i will post more as i finish them, finishing up one right now for my dads 75 for his gun room. this bag i used fiebings dark brown dye 2 coats and,then 3 coats of kiwi brown shoe polish rubbed and buffed in. and yep used pinky sears, as for the secret pocket in flap thats for the insert but i always leave it trimmed a bit big and i keep some spare flints tucked in there
