Living History Impressions, let's see those photos!

[MAPMFF]

There is an entire FB group dedicated to showing off one's living history/reenacting/rendezvous kits and impressions, as far as I can tell here there is no thread as such going back to threads posted in 2019. If there was and I missed it, shame on me. But lets see what you have in one condensed thread. I've been reenacting off and on since 2006, all based in Massachusetts, which at least for the 18th Century is a hot bed of RevWar reenacting and some excellent historically correct groups. Dabbled a bit in the Civil War but there isn't much to do here without some decent travelling.

Anyways off we go.

Massachusetts Milita C. 1775/1776

Massachusetts Militia 1775/1776, This was in Minuteman National Historic Park at Hartwell Tavern oh 2017ish.
Realllly wish I still had that flintlock, I forget the maker but it was a custom made piece from a gentleman in Virigina, 46' and very similar to what Committee of Safety Musket's would have been, with influences of French and British design with a beautiful custom clamshell bayonet.

Civilian Circa 1778-early 1780s

Certainly, invested and divested, invested and divested, don't currently do any of it nor own it, should have kept some basic kit, toying with the idea of getting back into it in some capacity.

Know this is heresy, but anyone doing British/Hessian?? Specifically, looking for a British Rifleman circa 1800s. Thanks for your help/advise.

Just some random colonial era woodsman bouncing around New England and maybe the Wyoming Valley, skipping around in time between the late 1750s and mid 1770s (and trying to comply with modern day hunter orange regulations.


I do love my matchcoat.
No pics in the field yet of the grey or brown coat pictured on the porch.
