Ridge Runner, yes, for sure, any international hunter who wish to participate in this hunt can use his own country`s traditional hunting clothes....remember, even during those days/years a lot of foreign hunters from all over the world hunted in Southern Africa ....I really wish some of our members on this forum would see their way open to participate in this hunt, I can assure you, you will have an experience few members ever will experience..keep in mind, all the game you shoot , their meat will be divided between all participants, we will use it for camp fair, making biltong, droee wors, or game sausage ...if you shoot an animal every day , then it is to your own enjoyment , as long as you keep hunting and shooting game for the camp you can keep on shooting game the whole ten days... The more game you shoot the more meat will be available in camp....Gert,
I haven't read any questions on this, so I'll ask:
Being an American, and your reenactment is 1882-1884. Would it be acceptable for an American to join your reenactment wearing American period clothing and to use an American period correct firearm?
Clothing could be anything from western, west of the Mississippi, "cowboy" attire to East of the Mississippi farmer or city "dude", to post "Civil War" "Yankee" military attire.
American firearms of this period were being converted from muzzle loading to black powder cartridge guns: Sharpes, and Remingtons, in rolling block and trap door actions and Henry's (Winchester) lever action. And of course black powder cartridge revolvers and shotguns.
I'll have to refresh my memory, but around these years a Frenchman (?) or Belgian (?) in Europe and an American in one of our New England states were both working on developing a "smokeless" powder.
Yes, Leslie, you can bring it to hunt with it..can you bring three more hunters with you for this year??would this 1873 Winchester 38-40 be allowed to be used?
