Fine looking vest and I'm sure it would last a lifetime but I wouldn't pay that much for a vest on which I'd have to put duct tape, around those steel strap "adjusters", and steel belt buckle. They'd wreak havoc on a shotgun's finish, eventually. If they wanted to stay away from plastic ones, which I fully understand, they should have made little canvas covers for those "adjusters", and used some other means to fasten the waist belt.

I have a nice leather speed bag for over the shoulder carry, sold by McAlister, that has sliding leather covers on the strap that cover the metal hardware to protect your gun. Somebody at Duluth dropped the ball on that, IMHO.

Filson doesn't hardly matter anymore. They've moved 95% of their production overseas in the past few years.
