I used to shoot guns with my exfiance. Handguns mostly...if I recall correctly a 45 revolver, a 9 mm automatic and he had a few high power rifles too but they were too loud for me!
Hmmm...you KNOW, I JUST saw a show on the making of Scorcese's "Gangs of New York", have you seen it, Zoo? If not, then DO rent it.
Any way, in it the clothing designer spoke of the difficulty in dressing the WOMEN of the lower classes, as all we tend to see in portraits and such are the flouncy rich women's dress of the mid-late 1800's.
So what she did was took really BASIC skirts, with fitted tops (flowy sleeves on some) and leather vests...all kinds of variations. NO hoops and such.
I could see a woman gunslinger in something a tad more rustic than petticoats!
