Mr. Merkel Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Hi all I am looking for a shorter length good quality traditional canvas or leather shotgun slip for a side by side. Ideally about 45 inches long a buckle and flap style with a full length zip, fleece lined but I am happy to compromise for the right slip. I just want a slip that does not fold up carrying a shorter gun. It’s to take a 12-bore XXV Anything suitable out there? Thanks in advance MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPhantom Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 I bought a Brady canvas gun slip for my XXV from the bay. Fits exactly - I know what you mean re fit as most slips these days aren’t short. Very traditional and well made. Not fleece lined though if that’s important to you. It pays to shop around as condition is everything and some of these Brady slips are decades old and have seen some use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Merkel Posted May 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Thanks for that I am watching that but there does seem to be a lot of dross put up for sale on there, but I keep looking. I also keep an eye on Holts auctions. MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
