Website selling Republican gear? - ParthianBow - 12-04-2013 Does anyone know of a website that sells mid Republican gear? I need the helmet of a triarius, and also the spear and one greave (I know, I know, I'll have to buy two!). I've tried armillum and armamentaria with no joy, although I need to email them directly as well. Thanks in advance. Ben Website selling Republican gear? - Vindex - 12-05-2013 There's a Spanish site - but I am not on my home system at the moment so can't provide a link. Someone else may help in the meantime but I will look when I get home this evening. Website selling Republican gear? - agrimensor - 12-05-2013 http://www.armae.com/ try this one. Website selling Republican gear? - Flavivs Aetivs - 12-05-2013 Armillum is the Spanish One. He doesn't speak English very well so unless you're fluent in Spanish its difficult ot order from him. I think Armae has an Apulo-Corinthian helmet, which would be appropriate for a Triarius. But a lot of the gear you'll have to make yourself, I've never seen any Republican-era caligae/calcei. Dave Akers in Missouri makes a Republican-era Pilum head. He's on RAT and FAR so you can contact him through this site. A standard Greek Dory should work for your Triarius though, he makes Greek spearheads. There's a few sites that sell republican-era armor and swords, Manning imperial makes good (but expensive) stuff. They have republican-era greaves and helmets and stuff.

Better for an upper-class "Samnite" cavalry depiction. Website selling Republican gear? - Flavivs Aetivs - 12-05-2013 Quote:Ferran Garetta in Spain is another option that Moi possibly meant. This guy? Yeah he does some awesome stuff. http://ferrangarreta.com/index.php Website selling Republican gear? - ANTONIVS MAGNVS - 12-05-2013 Quote:Armillum is the Spanish One.

Website selling Republican gear? - Flavivs Aetivs - 12-05-2013 Vermaat said its hard to order from them cause he doesn't know English well. Maybe it had been a while. Thanks for the info Jay. Website selling Republican gear? - Alexand96 - 12-05-2013 I'm rather surprised that no one mentioned Erik Konig - http://replik-online.de/en/index.html I've never dealt with him, so cannot give any review, but it definitely appears as though he has Republican gear. Website selling Republican gear? - agrimensor - 12-05-2013 Ben, Jean- Luc of AERa will be a good source. http://www.roman-reenactor.com/aera%20main%20page.html or http://www.replik-online.de/de/index2.html Website selling Republican gear? - jvrjenivs - 12-05-2013 Erik Konig makes wonderful stuf but might take a long waiting time at the moment. I never had any problems with doing bussiness with Armillum, his English is okay. Ferran Garetta speak little English, but is happy to help you in English. Website selling Republican gear? - ParthianBow - 12-11-2013 Thanks for all the replies! I know Ferran - he made an amazing hastatus bronze breast and back plate for me. Jose on Armillum speaks English fine - but he's got twin babies and a new bakery, so is rather busy - that's ptob why he takes a while to reply! Will check out the other sites - thanks! Website selling Republican gear? - deepeeka - 12-11-2013 Sir, It is a suggestion. You may delete this post, if it offends any rules or policies of RAT. What I am suggesting is that the Roman Army talk is now a mature place and has a large following. We should create a small market where manufacturers can show and sell products direct to members, at reduced prices. The RAT can control these sales, and get a cut on these, which would be beneficial for the forum. Again, this is only a suggestion. Gagan Website selling Republican gear? - Flavivs Aetivs - 12-11-2013 After several rather recent occurrences, I can say we will not be opening up a section of the marketplace for Vendors or Indian manufacturers to sell their goods. I'm sorry. Thanks, MMFA |
