Having completed my late war uniform for the 3rd Kentucky, I'm working on my early war impression particularly at Shiloh. We know the Kentuckians couldn't rely on their home state to supply uniforms for obvious reasons. From what I have read they were a hot mess with Sate Guard Frocks to hunting shirts...11-18-2021, 06:27 PM

I have been thinking about expanding into civilian interpretation at the forts. Everything is based on forts and museums out here, given the sparse number of battles in the territory. And civilian interpretation would open a lot of doors, and would provide a good counterbalance to the collecting of...08-15-2021, 02:25 AM

Fellas,
I'm rolling out for Garfield's in an officer's impression for the first time in my career. I have a general idea of what I would pack for this, but I thought to put it to the group to see if I had missed anything or needed to rethink anything.

Hello Friends,
1) I have for sale a 1970's era Bernadelli M1841 Mississippi Rifle with a reproduction Zouave sword bayonet. The early Bernadelli reproductions had brazed on bolsters which made them susceptible to blowing off especially when they were fired with live rounds. This is one of the...You may only view thumbnails in this gallery. This gallery has 7 photos.11-14-2021, 06:11 PM -

Howdy everyone,
I am hoping to find a good used Lorenz or 1842, either one with bayonet for a good price. Defarbed would be a plus, but not required.
I also need a good federal cartridge box, belt and 2 rivet scabbard. Ideally a set would be nice, with plates if possible.
