You can get a non-working replica for about $125

Around $500 will get you a working piece.


Thats if you go for an authentic piece. I couldn't find any crappy plastic versions besides what they sell at civil war reenactments.

That is whats kinda cool about 18-19th century firearms. Most of the machinery used to make them is still around, and is used to make replicas(or rather just make new ones)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/601595/6963835.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/601595/6963835.page GMT Re:Making an empire Handgunner costume, need advice

Thanks, perhaps a working piece without any projectiles would do; 1 BANG every 3 mintues is much better then yelling LIGHTING BOLT LIGHTING BOLT LIGHTING BOLT every god damn second]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/601595/6965727.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/601595/6965727.page GMT Re:Making an empire Handgunner costume, need advice
Even someone who wasn't particularly good could reload in less than a minute. Trained soldiers would get 3 shots off a minute.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/601595/6966226.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/601595/6966226.page GMT
