Yeah, I don't imagine there are many guys that do that stuff there.

closest we get are the weekend long tactical events once in a blue moon

Omg, so did you see the 150th Getteysburg a few years back?

not personally, no. but I saw a few clips on youtube

It was amazing. The charge was beautiful to see 10,000 Confederates marching across an open field, tearing down fences and approaching the Union line.

As Cav, I was acting as a courier for that event, and I got a front row seat to it all.

I did see that clip. I bet it was better in person

Yeah, it was pretty awesome. It was a 3 week campaign.

Each week was ran by a different organization. So we had little breaks in between.

I actually almost got Trench Foot during my second week. Had to take some time to let my feet air out. They were burning.

I think my unit is going to try to get a cash pool going so we can go out there sometime as a group and participate

Go during the big anniversaries.

Like the 165th or 170th

Yeah, I think we're shooting for the 175th

Of course, I don't think we'll see numbers like we did with the 150th for a long time.

or something like that

175th might have good turnout.

remains to be seen...

Of course, well it's getting late. And I have a big day planned with my GF tomorrow, so catch ya

adios

> You have to weigh as much as the cannon in order to be one.
@Sparrow
I can be a howitzer!!

Yes, yes you can. I've seen your fat titties

Dont act like you dont spend hours abusing that nub you call a dick to my hairy titties

why do muzzle loading cannons have to be so expensive

smh

I have a GF for that, thanks.

And because anything old is expensive.

$24k for a repro 12 pounder gun

Forgeries arent making them in quantity so that adds costs

true

If your really motivated nearly every town in new england has at least one piece of artillery on the town hall lawn lol

Gonna need work to get em firing again but, motivated men can do anything

Looks like Imma have to become a socialist for free government handout muzzle loading artillery...

"When the man in front of you falls, you pick up his muzzle loader"

I know where two are located near me, but I'd have to bring 'em back by sneaking around the outskirts of an army base

What's the point if your bringing them back lol. Keep those things. What they gonna do? You'll have 2 cannons 😂😂

bring them back home with me

Mount one on a civic. Rename it the lowrizer

I was going to give a school bus a wood planking wrap and give it schooner rigging a mount them in the bus to become a true road pirate

My home for tonight
