What would be the best way to acquire accurate, replica uniforms for use in a reenactment?
Have any of you ever been in one? What time period?

WW2. 272 volksgrenadiers

Its really easy to find one in your area. And finding reproduction uniforms are very easy. There are at least half a dozen good quality reproduction vendors online who sell uniforms, boots and equipment. Putting together a good uniform and equipment with personal items and other tid bits should be under 500 dollars.

Poorfag Civil War reenactor here

Started out with unit loaner uniforms, saved up until I could buy some used gear for cheap. Currently have a decent mid-war Confederate shell jacket, Union blue pants (meant to be interchangable between impressions), and a rather inaccurate artillery kepi. I think I've spent roughly $185 or so on this current uniform ($35 on the kepi, $50 on the pants, and $75 on the jacket). Hoping to upgrade in the future.

pic related, the uniform

By joining your cunts military and getting into some guard/tradition unit
This way you would also avoid being a pathetic fag

Also it really tends to be hit or miss with WW2 reenactors. Hooptyman is a great example of a example of a guy who really does it right

Atthefront.com is best for US reenactors, theyre pretty good
