many thanks
john

Does your friend intend to compete in SASS cowboy action shooting events?  If so, the Handbook has the following requirement;

• Shotgun ammo loops must conform to the shooters contour (i.e., not tilt out from the belt).

If the gent has a severe case of "Dunlap's disease", a tilted-out slide may conform to his contour!  ::)

The BWSS
The Brit version of SASS...

Try/Tend  to follow the SASS rule book obviously here we have far more restrictions regardin Smokepoles. 

Apparel `n rigs are as near as possible as SASS. Different clubs have different takes (Like anywhere).

I personally feel as long as its safe its fine!! Lets face it, not many cowpokes in the 1800`s walked around armed to the teeth with shotgun slides halfway up their midriff

Bottom line if your just going to shoot club level clear it with your Posse
