I wish I could remember where I read it, but Forrest required his artillery to carry small arms. Morgan also had his artillery carry small arms, while manning their mt. Howitzers.
I think he is about right. There are alot of last timers coming out. I know of a bunch who are making the Gettysburg event their last gasp,and havn't particapated as miitary in events for several...
Thats great, but I have a question. If they are not premade what do those who are not sargeants for life to do? Meaning, at certain events you are not a sargeant but a private. Do you take the...
I didn't know there was going to be one at Shipsee. Any info would be appreciated. Our unit hadn't anything planned until Mem day so this may be a viable option.
I will also jump on the Fugawee band wagon. My first pair wore out after a dozen years. My wife got me a new pair last year for Christmas. OPPS wrong size length ok width to narrow, no problem ...
At some of our smaller events, here in Michigan there are minimal sutlers. So there is a swap meet every once in a while. Or what you can do is have blanket sales outside your tent or camp area. ...
Mostly it's other features that give away a female. Earings, hair style, the way you walk, voice, and other mannerisms, and other ahhh female physical characteristics. If you can pass these then...
Sometimes it's obvious, where else do you put your weapon? If you were trained to always stack arms when ever you stop or are dismissed them thats what your naturally going to do when you stop. ...
I find that there is nothing worse than to go to a local event and find that 1 side has 30-40 troops and the other side has 10 or so. I carry 4 sets of uniforms with me now-adays, and 1 of civilian....
I just found out today from a trucker, he ships stuff through Greyhound. He lives in Ohio and has stuff shipped from Cali. all the time. He ships large car and truck parts. Syas it only take 5-6...
Which is strange. What if your tent(s), are handmade? And you spray/swab on aftermarket fire treatment/waterproofing? Do you then make your own tag?
Try any tandy store. They will even cutwhat you need. Or go to a regular shoe/boot store. not a discount store. I have bought leather laces at one of the better boot stores. Or go to a western...
I couldn't have said it better myself. I am tired of those who run down the other one(Place your event here). Each will have their own misadventures, and adventures. And also tired of the...
There is a company in Michigan that sells Gatling Guns, or there was a couple years ago. You could buy it in many variations. Blank firing, live firing, with a carriage, or wioth a tripod mount. I...
I don't consider going to one. They all seem too far away for their size for me to travel to. Any of them I have seem advertized or talked about, I would have to travel many hours, and take...
Thanks and a hat tip, for someone showing some sense Horrible responses kill more motivation for a new guy than a bullet will. ya give a snarkie answer to a question asked in complete honesty,...
First you better check your state law for transporting a weapon. Here in Michigan unless you have a CCP(concealed carry permit) your weapon must be in a case of some sort, and unloaded. And must be...
Then you get the same one said at every event wether it's confed or federal:
Officer say "Fire at will". Someone always responds "Which one is Will?"
I am taking 300 rounds to the GAC event (I have rolled 800 rounds for the season). I was told we may(our unit) be involved ins as many as 6 but probably 4 shooting events. I always tell the capt....
All I know is that our captain registered all of us who paid thier 25 bucks for the GAC event. We started paying/signing up after the first of the year. Right as of now we have 22 registered from...
I guess they do things differently out east than here in the midwest. Most any of the units I know of welcomes those lonely guys looking for a home for the weekend. Of course unless the guy is a...
Just do what my buddies and I do-- we avoid and ignore the other side. It makes life so much easier. There is always one at an event who spouts off that his way is best, thats the one to ignore,...
If you look at any well made reproduction of a colt it has a safety feature. There is a lower notch on the hammer, and little studs between each chamber. This serves the same purpose as the ntch on...
I remeber reading in E.H. Rohdes diary"All For The Union" of him using his revolver a few times on his rise from a from up through the officer ranks. It's just to bad I don't have a copy on hand to...
