Abstract
Hunter's suspenders, which feature removable front sections designed to carry a variety of sizes of ammunition, include a shoulder and back section, formed of two lengths of longitudinally elasticized webbing, which attach to the back of the hunter's pants, preferably cross and are joined, and have detachable connectors at their front ends. Two front sections each include a length of longitudinally elasticized webbing, with detachable connectors at their upper ends which are compatible with the connectors of the front ends of the shoulder and back section. The lower end of the front sections attach to a front location of the hunter's pants. A second length of longitudinally elasticized webbing is oriented adjacent and parallel to the first webbing length of the front section, and is attached thereto by equally spaced transverse attachments, such as by sewing, wherein a plurality of transverse tubes of expandable diameter are formed into which ammunition may be inserted for carrying. Front sections may be constructed with different spacing of the transverse attachments, so that the hunter may, by replacing one detachable front section with another, switch from one size of ammunition to another without replacing the entire suspenders unit. Additional front sections may be transported in a pre-loaded configuration, allowing quick replacement of ammunition without having to individually reload the ammunition tubes.
