EVERY MORNING I WAKE UP AND OPEN PALM SLAM A WHITE WHALE INTO THE PEQUOD. IT'S HELL'S HEART AND RIGHT THEN AND THERE I STRIKE AT THEE ALONGSIDE WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER, ISHMAEL.

It may not be accurate, but I wouldn't put it past MGS3 Ocelot to be wearing a bandolier of rifle rounds while using revolvers. He doesn't exactly have a good balance of cool vs. practical.
It is accurate, in the scene where he does the infamous :ocelot: or the ~MROWR~, he is wearing a bandolier full of .45 Colt cartridges which are pretty decently big (~1.6" long). They're not supposed to be .45 rifle cartridges, (2.5" long) but I'm guessing that's what happened here?

Also it's based on a character design/in-game rendering sophistication from over 10 years ago.

He doesn't carry any extra pistol ammo. Six bullets. More than enough to kill anything that moves.
That's when he's a lot older, and he still does have a small bandolier in his character design from MGS1. I can't even remember if he was on the Single Action Army by the later part of MGS3.

He starts using the SAA after his first meeting with Snake, he always has 2 with him but only uses 1.

Yup. He actually gets the SAA fairly early in the game, he only has one appearance where he has the Makarov, until it jams and Snake tells him to get a revolver instead.

So Colt .45 rounds would make sense, even if those are clearly not Colt .45s

I own a .45 colt revolver. You are never going to confuse that round with a rifle round.

Here is the answer to the question of, "Do they make that, in this?" when it comes to guns.

"How much are you willing to spend?"

So we actually have some cosplay during this derail. Have a splicer.

That's it, then. I remember the early switch to revolver(s), but didn't remember if it was (2x) SAA specifically.

Hello I am a gun Nerd, this is my post.

Why are there rifle rounds on the bandolier and not pistol ammunition?

Is this accurate? (looked it up, it is not. MY IMMERSION! :qqsay:)

Look at this scrub who doesn't use revolvers chambered for rifle ammo.

There's a thread at the Replica Prop Forum (not sure if a membership is necessary to read it) where they're going into great detail to identify all of the pieces: http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=240451

Short version, on top of the mask you'd have to buy a bunch of vintage auto namebadges and hard-to-find pins and patches (or 3D-print copies of them), old Nokia circuit boards, various nuts and bolts, pistons, bicycle chain... The clear armor itself is probably easiest to make from transparent thermoplastic Worbla (~$100 for one torso-sized sheet, probably need a couple) molded over Roman muscle armor ($70 on Amazon). And then there's the boots, the bellows attached to the mask, and the guns/holsters...
