Steampunk Category

[DeaconKC]

I know it's not an official category, but it sure gave me the smiles shooting with some of these folks. Is there an "un-official" idea path for this?

Rolan Krapps is the unofficial father of Steam Punk as far as I know, he set up some guidelines for the category for clothing and guns but I don’t have any idea where too find them and to my knowledge they are followed quite loosely!

@Rolan Kraps, SASS # 24084 Life should be along shortly.

Found the archived page and read through it. Gonna ignore/argue the point of no SxS shotguns allowed, as a proper Victorian/Edwardian Era Gentleman would certainly wield one!

I never felt that the Gunfighter style should be excluded, especially since, when asked for a reason, the reply was “Because I said so!”

So? Can ya shoot it gunfighter?

It's not an official category so just write whatever rules you want for your club.  Just saying.

As there are no official rules if the MD allows it then YES

[Badlands Bob #61228]

I'm convinced that the reason Gunfighter was excluded was to keep me out of it.

I still think Steampunk should require the use of a Broomhandle Mauser....

Yea!! yea, that's it, that's it, me too! You're right, they're just skeered of real shooters.

They wanted to handicap us Outlaws!!

Unofficial or not, that's just what we need - another category. What about senior steam punk? Classic steam punk? Ladies (I know) steam punk? 

 

I'm just saying.

@DeaconKC, I'd pay extra on my entrance fee if you wore a KFC bucket on yer head as a hat. Maybe glue a pocket watch and some gears on it too! The name DeaconKFC would catch on then!

Buddy, I almost sprayed coffee on that one! Next 'nanner splits on me[and if you make me laugh, might be on you too!].

I have two Broomhandles.   Would not want to try Gunfighter Steampunk with them, but one of them has a 30 round (fixed) magazine.   I'll use that one with shoulderstock holster for my "rifle."

If there was ever a revolver in Steam Punk spirit, this is it! https://www.forgottenweapons.com/early-automatic-pistols/webley-fosbery/

That and the LeMat.   I'd also consider the Nagant.   It's such a goofy revolver design, it'll even work with a silencer.

[Tennessee williams]

I'm gonna say the Acier would be cooler!

Frontier Cartridge Outlaw Gunfighter Elder Statesman sounds good to me.
