Moving this thread from Wanted Remington 1858:

I am just starting in this fun discipline, I am based in Co Durham, have we any local clubs shooting this in the North ? I see a few in Lincs, Staffs and Liverpool, plus one in North Yorks. Any closer to Durham ?[quote][/quote]

Thought they were for robbing banks ???!!!!!!

I am looking at a Pedisoli Wyatt Earp SbS Hammer gun 20" - As far as I know this is the shortest barrels allowed in CAS. - Could be wrong

You just need to say your Jesse James - it may be Ok then

Surprised that Tall Trees does not have these comps.

bradaz11, where on Earth did you read that about the reason for wearing gun belts with the buckle to the rear? Please show me a period photograph.

For ideas of CORRECT holsters & leather gear, check out a book called "Packing Iron"

My personal favourite period holster is the Slim Jim.
Blackstuff is more of a Texas JockStrap sorta hombre.....though I'd not think he'd have a problem finding "chaps"

I've made quite a few of the holster designs from the book in the past & still make a few of the related accessories.

The book is an ideal late Xmas present as its only about £20.

Redcat

was told it by a few people.

as for period photos, they aren't going to show you that much, not like they are going to be a candid look into their everyday casual wear is it?

You'll be lucky.
The Northern scene is rather sedentary!
