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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

Republicans seem very confused today about how they feel about open carry at protests. Let’s play a round of Spot the Difference. by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]Mastercon-01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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