I reckon the basic kit can set you back £1000. That's before the rifle.

lets be honest about this.......
it is NOT a cheap hobby
heres a list of basicly what you need to get started
tunic and insignia approx 200 quid
trousers 100 quid
cap 40 quid
boots 50-150 quid
belt and buckle 35-50 quid
y-straps 35 quid
zeltbahn 50-100 quid
bread bag 25 quid
mess tin 15 quid
water bottle 35 quid
e-tool and carrier 50 quid
bayonet and frog 60 quid
mauser pouches 50 quid
k98 200-250 quid

think thats about it but you can add to that petrol costs getting to the shows all over the country and general maintenance of your kit it soon adds up
for basic kit alone you are talking in the region of a grand and those are just rough estimates it could be more
if you do 8 shows a year at 20 quid petrrol a time it starts getting costly
