Title: Need opinions on this Mills cartridge belt Post by sigman2 on Apr 17th, 2019 at 11:29pm
Guys, I purchased this off e-Bay. It was listed as an original Mills 35 loop 30/40 Krag cartridge belt. I have serious doubts as this this being an original.
First, the belt is in too good a condition to be 100 years old. Second, the fabric has no old smell to it. It actually has a rather new smell. The metal fittings are brass and the loops are woven into the belt, not sewn but I just can't believe this is an old, original belt. How can I be 100% certain before I contact the seller? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. (You need to Login |
