St. George,
This is the impression I have chosen for Mounted shooting. It is plate of a 1st. Mounted Cherokee Rifle. As you can see by the photo next to it (yes that is me), with very little modifcation I can make the 18th century attire work, I even have the horse(s) and I'm in the process of researching a very early Hope Saddle, megwetch (thanks) to all for your input.

Ottawa Creek Bill,

The 18th Century clothing would still have been in wide use - especially in the more rural areas - so you're more than well on your way - with little addition to the outfit.

It's going to be outstanding by the time you're finished refining the Impression and that Plate shows more than enough to make the entire thing 'shine'.

My congratulations!

Vaya,

Scouts Out!
