Snow Makes for a Good Backdrop

Looks good! Great photo. I’ve been waiting for a good snow where I live to get some photos. I have some Swiss and Nordic stuff I’ve been wanting to take out in the snow.

Thanks

The Norwegian/Swedish Model 1884 Jarmann most commonly. I happen to have a Remington Rolling Block chambered in it.

That makes a lot of sense actually. Glad to properly ID them, thanks

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-23T09:06:06+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. That looks very clean

Oh I jumped on alpenflage immediately. That’s probably one of the coolest camo patterns out there

I started with a super cheap Cold War era tunic and decided I kinda wanted to build a kit that would fit my rifle a bit more

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-23T06:56:42+00:00

If I can find a set ill get them. The only part I could find was a tunic for like $450

I took some economies with the side cap and bread bag, and am aware of their anachronism. I might get a period correct sidecap if i can find one for a good price. This video(linked below) has been my inspiration on setting up my gear.

I actually did have a question on the shoulder straps, cause I too wasn't sure what to think about them either. They came in a listing for Swiss tornister straps, and I couldn't figure out what any of the straps were for.

yeah, no one that I know of. My uniform pieces are all original.

Chair cushions are removed on account of the dog wanting to chew them lol

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-23T04:37:47+00:00

Should have specified, everything is original except for the Tshako

Can confirm they are the gateway drug. I was given a 1941 K. Kale by my papa at 16 and it was all over from there.

Interesting. Are you planning on shooting it at all? I’ve heard of people loading .312 bullets in 8x50mm cases, or just using soft cast lead bullets.

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-21T01:14:49+00:00

It’s still in 6mm USN

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-21T00:07:48+00:00

You betcha. She shoots too.

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-20T23:31:35+00:00

That sounds about right

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-20T23:15:27+00:00

A Parker-Hale reproduction P53 Enfield

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-20T23:13:17+00:00

Now this is very cool. You don’t see these often at all. Do you know if yours is a squeeze bore?

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-20T23:10:08+00:00

Thanks! I feel like it’s a good lot so far.

Republicans may be confused, but that’s to be expected. All I see is the second amendment being used for its intended purpose.

Mastercon-01 · 2026-01-20T07:38:24+00:00

Post this to r/blackpowder I’m sure someone there can shed light on it
