  1. Tha KS. It's a start. Have to some more research.
  2. Howdy all, I placed this post on the costuming page and was not able to get an answer so wanted ro see if anyone can help. ll purchased a union cavalry shell jacket second hand and once i had it i realized something was a little off. On the stand-up collar there is only 1 ribbon. All others I have seen are 2 ribbons per collar. Was this a variation? A field repair? Or just a mistake? The jacket itself is not a cheap costume but seems to be decent quality. No sutler tag. I have pics below. Any help would be appreciated.
  3. Thanks Scout. Same here in my research. I know that after the Civil War some uniforms were reissued for the expanding Indian wars until I think 1872, when new uniforms were created. So I thought might have been from that. Anyway, I might repost on the general forum to get a little more exposure and see what happens.
  4. Thanks Scout. When you get the chance.
  5. Howdy all! I am a CAS member who feels that the "costuming and persona" of my shooting character is just as important as the shooting. In this reality at some point my character was a cavalry scout after a stint in the Civil War. So now the help. I picked up a shell jacket just for a goof. Not sure I'll ever wear it shooting. But I noticed something recently. On the stand-up collar yhere is only 1 ribbon. All others I have seen are 2 ribbons per collar. Was this a variation? A field repair? Or just a mistake? The jacket itself is not a cheap costume but seems to be decent quality. No subtler tag. I have pics below. Any help would be appreciated.
  6. From today's monthly shoot. I might not be the fastest but I'll look good doing it.
  7. LOL, sorry I see you already sent me your info. Once you decide on what payment you want to use, I’ll get these in the mail. 1 bag is what you requested correct?

  9. I have 1 pair of .45 Evil Roys ( shot them main match for many years) I went to "Smoke-Wagons made by Taylor

    1 pair in .38 my latest pair are also Smoke-Wagons that were tuned by "Longhunter"( in .357)  when Jim Finch still did the work. Both pairs of Smoke-Wagons shoot the same and both have been trouble free. I shoot gunfighter and both are set for 1 3/4 pounds of trigger pull with NO CREEP. The Evil Roys are fine but I like the lower hammer on the Smoke-Wagons better. If you have any questions it's best to e-mail me direct at:

    My wife shoots Rugers but I find them barrel heavy. All of the Smoke-Wagons are from Taylor and are Uberti. The parts seem to fit my Colts also.

     

    Good Luck
