Any DFW area Old West Reenactors???

[ethan]

I love Texas lore and the romance of the mid-late 19th Century Old West, not to mention history in general, that coupled with my passion for firearms has culminated in an interest in Old West Reenacting, if anybody on here has any info or does this, belongs to a group/society/association i would really like some beginners info, i have never done anything of the sort but i have a willingness to learn, thanks much

I reenact the fact I once had lots of hair every morning in the mirror - does that count??

SASS is the way to go for that stuff, I guess. Something about a 32 caliber at 200 fps keeps me away though, and I am not much for dress up.

I used to compete in SASS. There is a club that competes in Cleburne and one that competes in Glen Rose. (the Lone Star Frontire Shooting Club and the Commanche Valley Vigilantes) I also shoot CMSA sometimes, (it makes the horse a little nuts, so I don't compete much anymore) There is a CMSA club right close to Decatur now.
I don't remember the name of the place, but there is a store in the Fort Worth Stockyards Station that sells period correct clothes and the owner is part of a group that does Civil War reinactments.

I'm sorry to report that the last time I was in the Stockyards (Oct. 28th), the store to which you refer was closed and totally empty.

They were very nice people and had some GREAT stuff. It's very sad.
