Missed this first time round Derek, sorry. Crackin' kilt mate I love the IOS but it's on my back burner for now due to finances. I do like the cap badge. Is that a civilianised version or issue?
Nice.

Looks great. Where'd you get the cool hunting sporran?

It (and the sporran) were "issued" to me by the pipe band I'm in. I can find out more about them; the band purchases custom kilts for everyone.

It's civilian; the USMC doesn't issue anything like that, though it'd be cool if they did! I managed to grab that off of Ebay for something like $12. Last I checked, the seller still had several.

I'll have to get back on this as well; I'm not sure where our PM orders everything from!  I do love the sporran.
Here's another pic I hadn't posted before. (Note the angle's a bit strange; trust me, the kilt wasn't sitting right on top of my hose!)

Derek -- Great looking kilt!

I've seen something that certainly looks similar to that sporran available at Scottish Lion for $45. I'm sure one can find it elsewhere, too.

That looks just about right!
The one I have I'm quite happy with. Holds all my stuff, though a wee bit tightly, but it works.
