DeaconKC Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawdaddy Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 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! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeaconKC Posted May 9 Author Share Posted May 9 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! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never felt that the Gunfighter style should be excluded, especially since, when asked for a reason, the reply was “Because I said so!” 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badlands Bob #61228 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 I'm convinced that the reason Gunfighter was excluded was to keep me out of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 I still think Steampunk should require the use of a Broomhandle Mauser.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverend P. Babcock Chase Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 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. Rev. Chase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tennessee williams Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 @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! 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 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." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also consider the Nagant. It's such a goofy revolver design, it'll even work with a silencer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
