    What mistakes have you noticed in movies/tv shows that happen in the BP era like Daniel Boone, Patriot etc?

    FOR SALE Men’s Vest, Shaw Collar, SZ XXL

By 1860 notch lapels we’re being worn concurrently They can still be found today, but longer because men wear their pants lower today. To be critical of my own product, for the earlier years, the collar lapels should continue...

    This is my personal everyday hat here in Va. (I need to pick the burrs off) The hats are comfortable and warm, and a unique alternative to the ubiquitous ball cap. Plus it is a perfect style for my “real life” poor farmer persona. 😆

    Advice for N-SSA carbine

    I am looking to get into skirmishing and would like advice on a carbine. Have narrowed my choices to the Smith, Maynard or Gallager as I like the breechloading style. For those with experience with these, which is recommended for accuracy, dependability and ammo/parts availability? For...
