Got one. Aluminum frame and has 2 shoulder straps. Carry it like a backpack when it is folded up. has compartments for calls, strikers, and other fear. Very comfortable.

How much that thing weigh? Looks comfy.

I bought it at the Palmetto Sportsman's Expo (or some name like that) that is held in March every year in Columbia, SC at the state fair grounds. Bought it back in 2009-ish. I remember at the time that finding this online was not very easy. When I get home tonight I will look on it to see if there are any markings that will help identify it. It is comfortable no doubt, but if you are on any type of slope or uneven terrain, it can be difficult to position properly. The one I bought came with a small backpack and a small pouch to store calls and strikers. The picture above does not show that, but the pack tucks under the chair. Also you can carry the dead gobbler by corkscrewing his legs through the frame of the chair and now you have a chair, small backpack and turkey tote all in one. It eliminates the need to wear a turkey vest and it might be awkward with the seat cushion (vest cushion not the chair cushion) sandwiched between the chair and your back. Don't remember what I paid for it.

chair folded up showing shoulder straps. this is the front while on your back  from behind showing the call pack flipped up here to show the backpack  call pack hanging down over the backpack. this is how it looks from behind while you are carrying the seat on your shoulders  Seat opened up with call pack swung out from underneath and situated between your legs  As was mentioned above, it looks like these are no longer made. I imagine it could be reverse engineered as long as you had a way to bend square aluminum tubing. One thing I will say about the seat cushion is it is a dense foam and can give you a sore arse after a half hour or so. Can always make it thicker and softer if you want.

that's the one he is looking for, thanks for the pics, will keep searching! If you ever decide to sell let me know! Appears you had to have some welding done on it!

Good eye on the welding. there is a small tab that stops the backrest in the upright position. There was not very much weld on the original tab and it broke off just by sitting back. So I had it repaired with a proper amount of weld metal. And I try to position it such that the backrest is touching a tree when at all possible.
Not likely to sell it. My wife uses it more than I do now as she likes getting off the cold ground. If it was just me, I might sell it. Like I said above it behaves best on level flat ground and it seems like I always end up on a hillside contorted against a tree. Also since the chair can't cozy right up to a tree like your body can, I get the false sense sticking out like a sore thumb sometimes.
Good luck in your search. Maybe try one of the hunting/outdoors websites in South Carolina and post a WTB ad. I saw a pile of people buy these when I was at the outdoor show in Columbia.
