If you're going to fight Comanche, you can never have enough Texas Rangers. What year are these supposed to be?
I like the guys from Jack Hays' era with revolvers. |

Old Glory also has 1846 era Texas Rangers in their Mexican American War range, mounted and on foot. So bear that in mind when getting an order together. Since I'm a firm believer in as much variety as possible in irregular units, you can also check out Knuckleduster, for a "not Lonesome Dove" feel, and Gringos40 for some excellent figures also.
The more Texas Rangers, the better. |

I'm guessing they are for the 1870s and beyond considering the number of lever action rifles, but I am sure they would do as "Yellow Boy" rifles from the 60s as well. |

Well, a firm mantra in my skirmish games is "They are who I say they are, and their weapons are what I say they are."
At even 25/28mm scale, I see little difference between various long arms, whether a musket, carbine or Remington. With the current trend of mixing weapons in a blister or bag, it's very expensive, and impractical, to isolate and present on the table exactly the "correct" weapons. |
