Here it is!
From the top: Columbus Armory carbine (Columbus), J.P. Murray rifle Type II (Columbus), Dickson, Nelson rifle Type II, Dickson, Nelson rifle Type I (Adairsville and Dawson), Georgia Armory rifle (Milledgeville), 36" Macon Conversion of a U.S. Model 1842 (Macon), Cook & Brother musketoon (Athens), and J.P. Murray carbine (Columbus).
Georgia State flag, Atlanta Arsenal accouterments, Dickson Nelson stock blank (its a piece of wood, but heh its original and kind of neat), and Georgia Armory bayonet. I would like a Georgia State coat/jacket... any suggestion on a size? Its for the public... because we all know that we are naked without a propper jacket and hat...
The purpose of this type collection is to teach history and promote black powder competitive shooting (N-SSA). I wish to display this at gunshows and other events, and allow guests to touch, hold, and pull the trigger of what arm feels most comfortabe for them. I'm still sighting these guys in, and almost done! The belt is a one size fits all attempt, hence like 50 or so holes on a very long belt.
This covers the N-SSA's most common platforms (US Model 1841 "Mississippi" rifle, Enfield, and US Model 1855/1861); and most common matches, Musket (rifled), Smoothbore (not-rifled...), and Carbine.
I will be posting more pics and info shortly. Enjoy!
