Have you ever considered getting into Reenacting or Living History, but are not sure about the cost? Remember groups like ours are here to help you get started with a good entry grade progressive impression that won't break the bank account! Remember - "Expensive does not always equal Authentic" & "Close Enough is not Good Enough!"

When starting out don't go rushing out and buying the first thing you see. Find a good unit, talk with them about what you might need, where to get it - alot of units (like ours) have loaner kit you can use when first starting out.

The image included gives a rough idea of just some of the equipment for a very basic Confederate impression and the ball park prices and vendors that are out there! Remember, Confederate impressions do have a lot more nuance to them and varied from area to area; so this is simply to give an idea of what to expect cost wise. For more information and a guide on what is out there feel free to check out the "What to Get and Where to Get it" Section of our company website - https://www.palmettoriflemen.org/HowTo_01.html
