Nice piece, there is a fellow that brings one for the GWA in neuville, he makes his own very good looking rounds and uses .45 Cal blnks to launch them.
Interesting mix of tunics and pants as well. This may seem a bit odd, buit are those pouches for the first aide or are they the earlier style pre 1909?
Nice photo
The Rifle units here did not get any different colour then the regular infantry unit, they did get the lovely rifle busby as apposed to the glen or pillbox.
nice helmets.
mark
there was a similar set of curass and helm in the 1930's film about the Dryefus affair. It was made in hollywood, but they had a sey forr dreyfus's son in the film prior to his arrest ,
I agree with gus. It is missing the trail that hooked onto the rear of the mount. I have seen a few up here made into monuments , the nicest kept one is Grand Bend Ontario.
