Duuring, do you happen to know a shop in either the Netherlands or somewhere in Europe that sells working muskets. Been trying to get into reenacting, but I want to collect some stuff first, so far I already got a Sabre-briquet.
I HIIIIIIGHLY recommened you FIRST join a re-enactment unit before collecting gear. The change your sabre-briquet is incorrect for the period you want do, is pretty high. And obviously, getting a fire-arm permit without being a member of a living history (For a year) groups is hard. More-over, people are not always to keen on having people 'on their doorstep' saying 'I've got a musket, can I join?'. It gives the bad...impression.
You can always add me on steam if you want to talk. My steam is the same as my name here.
That was to explain how bitch they are to get your hands on. Now I think you could better go to germany for them. I thought they were cheaper there.
Without a permit here, you still can't use it. And no, they aren't any more or less expensive then here.
