Ticking bag with Jack Hansberry Flintlock
This was one of the first pouches I ever made. It was given to a friend, gunmaker Jack Hansberry. I saw it hanging on his wall recently and thought that it would be a good idea to rework it a bit, waterproof it, add a few accoutrements, and pair it with one of my favorite guns Jack has made.
