I've had these Bagmaster (http://www.bagmaster.com/) bullet bags for a few years now.

Pretty hardy bag and perfect for carrying a quantity of ammo...especially plinking type stuff that I reload in quantity. Ammo cans are wonderful for long term storage but I hate them bouncing off stuff in the back of the truck. Good stocks cost too much to take a chance on that. The only weak spot in the bag is the label/tag on the end of the zippers. Over time, I always tend to break them.

Previously, I only had two bags...one large and small. Easy to keep track of what was in 'em. I bought a couple more last week and upon receipt I immediately realized what I had created.......confusion.

When they were filled, I had no idea what bag contained what ammo.

Of course, I was in the shower and I had an idea. :D I'm military...name tapes, velcro...hmmm

This is what I came up with.

I also had a bunch of extra tapes made in all the other calibers I tend to put in the bags.

A strip of velcro on the pegboard and I'm good to go!

The paracord was a fix for the label issue....10 min and I think they function and look a whole lot better.

I sell the Bagmaster bullet bags at straightShotShooting, and I'll be the first to admit that the plastic ID labels on them are pretty lame. The clear plastic ID holder that's intended to hold a written or typed label ends up cracking and is useless. The bags, however, work well for bullets or empty cases.

A few of the bullet bags that I use have broken ID holders, too. I've also put different zipper pulls on them as well. How did you make the labels? I'd like to do something similar for my bags, and I think that your idea looks pretty darned good. Fixing up the bags with sharp looking labels would help my range bag be a little better organized as well!

Wow! Nice fix! I'm jealous of folks who are that organized. It's not me! But I like this idea. I might try it.
