Thread: Gear For Sale

  1. #1

    Default Gear For Sale

    Due to too many bills, and not enough time, I'm looking to sell off some of my reenacting gear. I currently have pictures up at

    http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/22932...0Sale?h=028a5d

    All shipping descriptions are for the lower 48. Please contact me via email for more information.

    Item 1 - Euroarms 2 banded Enfield rifle - I bought this one less than a year ago. The previous owner had used it for living history, and had put a few blanks through it. I haven't fired it at all . . . it's been just hanging on my wall. It's in excellent condition. With Euroarms out of business, these aren't going to be any easier to find. I'm looking to get $500 for it. Buyer to pay actual shipping (should be about $35).

    Item 2 - Reproduction Bayonet for Item 1 above. I purchased this quite recently from blockaderunner for $170. I'd like to get $125. Needs some filing to fit to gun above. Will throw it in for $75 if you are buying the rifle

    Item 3 - A pair of confederate trousers. Bought from Don Smith about 2 years back. I believe it is made of English blue grey kersey. I've worn them once or twice. Look at the pictures . . . some machine, some hand-sewn. They fit me fine and I'm a 36 waist 36 inseam. I'd like $70 shipped for them.

    Item 4 - British Pritchard style knapsack. Purchased this two or three years back, I just don't use it to warrant having it. It's really very comfortable. Has a wood frame in it. The wood frame construction is not authentic, but it is the right size. The frame is made of solid wood, it just doesn't have the tongue and groove joining that should be there. Asking $115 shipped.

    Item 5 - Frock made of blue grey kersey. I don't remember who I bought this from, but he was selling it both on here and on the AC. It's very nice, and came without the LT bars that I sewed on. Its great for anyone doing early war (just take off the bars), or if you want something nice for your officers impression. Asking $125 shipped

    Item 6 - E. Whitney .36 reproduction cap and ball pistol. If you don't know your local regulations, please don't bother asking about this. I will not ship it where it's not legal to go. This one is kind of hard to find. I bought it for an officer's impression, and decided I don't want to be an officer. I've fired a few blanks through it, as had the previous owner. Asking $200 shipped, will include pistol case with key and holster.

    Item 7 - Model 1822/1845 Infantry Officer's Sword purchased from military heratige. It's a great sword, but again, I purchased it for an officers impression, that I decided against. http://www.militaryheritage.com/swords2.htm I'll include the sword bag with kidskin inner bag for free if you take if off my hands for $200 shipped.

    Item 8 - Original enfield sword bayonet. your chance to own a piece of history. i'm asking what I paid for it, $140 shipped. Look at the close up pictures.

    Item 9 - English pattern belt with double snake closure. I'd like $50 for this.

    Item 10 - Baldrick purchased from a sutler. I don't remember which one. This hasn't seen too much use. Very similar to the one that Morgan Freeman was presented with in Glory. Asking $50 shipped.

    Item 11 - Another original item. A private purchase NCO/medical style sword. The guy I bought it from knows that it came out of Ohio. See my pictures for detail. I'd like to get $200 shipped.

    My apologies, I listed the knapsack as a Pritchard model, but it's actually an Isaac and Campbell. I am keeping my Pritchard. Ooops.
