The Armour Archive

Hello, my new years resilution is to get ride of all the armour that has been cluttering up my garage and stick with just a few pieces. The prices are just a staring point, I will concider all reasonable offers, given the hard economic times.

Frist is a rivited mailshirt. It's made from flat ring and is galvinized so it's really bright. It will fit up to a 50" chest and is 32" long. $375

I am interested in the Churburg plates. Do you have dome dimensions, like roughly what diameter they are going to be when assembled. Also might be interesting in the guantlets depending on what I hear from another inquirey I have here on the AA - what is the width across the palm?

Thanks,

GDFB no longer has the bascinet on their web site- can you post some additional pics showing good views of the visor? Also, what are the interior dimensions of the helmet- side to side, front to back, and inner circumference?

Can I get some measurements on those gauntlets?

OK For some reason AA isn't updating my message nbox. I get the email that there is a message but there not showing up in my box so all questions should be emailed to stuffformybox@hotmail.com until I can get this sorted out.

I soooo want that riveted maile. but auto repairs are going to thwart my purpose..

If the mail shirt hasnt sold I'd like to put my name on it. Same thing with the chamburg plates if the other person falls through. Just want to check with my knight, Sir Alexis, to see if he will give his mark of approval.

Ran over and checked my chest measurement with Alexis, 43.5 inches and some change. With a padded gameson add another 2"s or so. That makes my chest measurement a 46" or 47'. The question is whether the 50" measure is a tight fit or not.

The folks I bought the shirt from on ebay say it's a 54" chest but it's closer to a 50 since thats my dads chest size and when he tryed in on me and my brother had to peel it off him(but he's also 50 and overwight). But on me, I have about a 45 " chest with my gambison and there is still anough slack to get in on and off myself. It's a vary thick weeve compared to other makers and probably heavier.

I am interested in the helm, what size is it? Thanks.

Any info on the gauntlets?

There made, or at least sold by SteelMastery who sell mostly on ebay. There 16ga. cold rolled steel, 4" accross the palm, 3 1/4 across the wrist and 9 inches from the top of the wrist to the finger tips.

I'm interested in the mail. I'm just down the road from you, so can pick it up, cash in hand. Let me know if its still available.
