From time to time I like to find out where the arms and armour market is and what people are buying.

There are three parts to the survey:

1. Answer the Topic Poll.

2. Post what you are planning on buying or looking for in the next 6 months. It doesn't need to be from me as other makers will be seeing this topic.

3. (here is the fun part)

A. Go to the Privateer Armoury Available Page.

B. PM me what pieces you like and what you would buy them for Today.

(shipping the the contenental US is $50, international is around $75-100)

C. If the price works for me then I will contact you and you can purchase the piece for what you offered.

So, what items be ye short on at the moment?

A brace trepan.

Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

I'll be buying a couple of new pistols in the next few days, a musket later in the year and hopefully a small cannon at some point after that.

Just waiting for a sword from Baltimore Knife and Sword then I may be ordering another 2 off them.

Thanks for all the good information. I will be making some changes to Privateer Armoury based on this survey.

Also, all the pieces on the site have sold. Congratulations to the new owners.

Godspeed,

Ben
