How many kilts would a Scot have had.

I think about this every single time I go to a CW reenactment of any kind and can't help but shake my head and laugh, because I know our ancestors would be doing the same thing!

So do I, especially when someone brings out a reproduction of a weapon, uniform, etc. that the troops despised, such as the Austrian Lorenz Rifle, and reenactors go crazy.

Several years ago, everyone had to have a repro smoothbore M1842 Musket, even though the soldiers would have traded their eye teeth for a Springfield or Enfield rifled musket.

Sorry for the OT.
