It hurts to do this but I have bills to pay and this jacket is the first to go. I bought this jacket from TheExit148 in August of 2011. Has been worn less than 10 times by me and is still in almost new condition. Measurements are as follows: Chest: 21.25" Waist: 19.25" Half Shoulder: 6.5" Arm Length: 25.5" Across Shoulder: 19.25" Back Length: 23" Storm flap length: 23" Jacket is made in Tony's smooth shrunken lamb, buttersoft to the touch but tough as nails. Selling for $500 plus shipping.

Might want to clear up your unfinished business, bud. Plenty of upset people over at Club OJedi Master Kenobi right now. .... Plus--the "owner" of this jacket would like you to contact him...after several unanswered attempts.

For those of us who aren't on COW, what's this controversy?

If you're referring to 'indyhan' and his jacket problems, it was a Todd's jacket, and he received his refund from PayPal. I don't know about any problems regarding this Nowak jacket.

Indydude18, the Tony Nowak jacket shown on Fortune & Glory is beautiful. I love the look of that leather. Is the one shown here the same jacket? The dimensions are not the same {back length, storm flap length, etc.}. Is there an actual listed size for it, or was it custom made for an individual {Gunslinger}? Interested.

Wow, did you even read what went on in those threads? Hey, it's your money, your risk. The only way I'd trust him after all that would be if I made the deal in person. Can't say you weren't adequately warned. Good luck...

Thanks for the warning and your concern Izeitgeist. I shall proceed with all due caution. Do you think it is the same jacket, or if in fact there is an actual jacket? Again, thank you.......... G

I am not an expert on the Nowak jackets (I'm a Wested guy, myself), but I believe the Nowak jacket listed for $500 in one thread and the jacket listed for $900 (then reduced to $800) in another thread are two different jackets.
There are two different threads existing at the same time, and the sizes/dimensions of the jackets are different from each other.
There are pics in each of the threads, but I have no way of knowing where the pics came from or where the jackets are or anything about their current existence.
I personally would look elsewhere, but that is just my own opinion based on my own experiences.
I do know that if I was the one selling items I had for sale, I would be a LOT more communicative and respond to comments in my sales threads within a few hours at best, rather than let them languish for weeks. That does not seem to be a perspective shared by indydude18, and my way of doing business certainly isn't the only correct way of doing business.
I have no information about indydude18's personal life or what situations he may currently be in. I can only speak for myself and my own experiences.

That they are two different jackets makes sense. Also, Indydude18's reticence in all this indicates that maybe all is not well. My current jacket is a custom Gibson & Barnes goatskin, which is great, but Gunslinger's Nowak looks awful sweet to me. The rough look of the leather taketh me man. Keep us posted on your experience Izeitgeist.

My experience is pretty much closed; the only thing that could happen from this point forward is if a Large/Long M.B.A/Noel Howard shirt magically appeared at my doorstep, but I'm not holding my breath for that to happen, so, nothing else to report, other than for others to be educated by what transpired and proceed in their own dealings with caution.
One good thing that came from all this is that I found twice as many Indy Fan forums than I was previously aware of, so that's been nice. I hate that my first post on the new ones had to be negative in nature, though.
