Hi,
Signs of a happy client. He sent me the following photos showing his early 19th century New England shooting kit. The rifle was made by Mitch Yates but I added a few embellishments.

Nice looking setup perfect for a Yankee Dandy.

Great post, Dave!
Now lets see some kits from other parts of the country (and abroad) that also reflect on the (often earned) stereotypes of the regions. This will be fun!

The owner would fit right in with that kit at Old Sturbridge Village. Nice rig.
