I meet Al Ange in San Antonio back in the mid 2000’s. He told us that he was a retiring Master Chief in the Navy, and loved to shoot Sporting, Skeet, and work with leather. In his retirement, he wanted to shoot, and make leather goods for shooters. He wanted feedback on his work, so he made Cory Kruse and I sharkskin pouches and belts. I have NEVER had leather shooting gear that holds up as well as Al’s!
His quality and attention to detail is flawless. Also, his willingness to do custom touches is amazing. I LOVE his “All American Pouch” design is fantastic for sporting shooters. It holds well over a box of 12ga ammo, and has a slightly ‘rounded’ shape, allowing for a narrower opening at the top. This keeps ammo from spilling out when you sit in a cart. BRILLIANT! Another touch is an card slot to hold your ‘target card’ so you don’t misplace it between stations.
His belts are very nice also, and I know many, myself included, who were his trouser belts daily. If you exercise your right to concealed carry, his belts are very stiff, and will support a full size carry gun with ease. He will do narrower, dressier belts also. Various buckles are available, or he will gladly use yours if you have one.
Al fills his orders VERY quickly. He recently built a custom pouch and belt, with exotic skins, for a student, and shipped it within 3(!) days. He is going in for shoulder surgery in about a month, and will be out of commission for both shooting and leather work for a few months, so if you want something, order it ASAP!
