Lots of info here on The Leather Shop forum, and I'm sure there's lots of pics in the past pages. I just wanted to make a comment about cartridge belts with belt loops. Seems like I've seen a lot of criticism of Hollywood movies for people with percussion rigs that have cartridge loops on the belt, like say, Angel Eyes in Good, Bad & Ugly. But those folks were carrying cartridge rifles, so the loops certainly could have a purpose. And per Packing Iron, cartridge belts started during the Civil War. I would imagine plain belts were more common in those early days, though.
