Depends on what your re-enacting about the gear, though it can be expensive a lot of it you build up over time, 14 isn't that young, you won't be old enough to be a firer though you could start off as a drummer until you're 16.

I'm not sure what the trouble is with going a little bit off-topic for the sake of some fun, about re-enacting. You also post AFTER we all made our jokes, so arrive kinda late to the party.
