Salve!
I am planning of buying my first armour . What do you guys think, would this be a "okay" mail shirt for a late roman?
http://www.armae.com/surmesure/16promotionscadre.htm
It has semi-long sleeves, 8mm diameter riveted rings (I know it is not very "roman" to have all the rings riveted, but it`s durable for sure :wink: !) and it seems to be galvanized (is it possible to get the excessive shine away by vinegar etc?). So what do you people think? Would it be accurate enough for example for a 4th c. roman soldier?
