Sutlers: Below are links to merchants (sutlers) that sell uniforms, etc. for people interested in the Civil War Period of American history.  There are many sutlers to choose from, but a word of caution.  Just because a sutler has it for sell, does not always mean it is an authentic reproduction.  The sutlers listed below sell quality authentic reproductions at a fair price.  Even then, it is a good idea to do some research before you purchase an item.

Regimental Quartermaster / One of the big outfitters, Carry almost everything
