C&Rsenal is now over six years deep into its Primer series, documenting historical small arms in detail. This ambitious project has proven extremely complicated and difficult to undertake, but we’ve managed to deliver a documentary every other week! If you appreciate the series this is your chance to both display that love and help fund the project. Get your C&Rsenal shirt and the purchase goes towards providing even more free online content for yourself and everyone else to enjoy.  This year we’re answering the call for lightweight, breathable, and soft material.  These are our comfiest shirts!

Cycle of Violence

By popular demand, Cycle of Violence has returned with some minor tweaks.  Show your love for both machine guns and cycling in one shirt!

The Strip Club

Previously a patch design, it became a fast favorite among viewers, so Othais turned it into a shirt.  If you missed out on the patch, snag yourself one of these neon beauties!

Pat. 1874

This shirt is for all of you who have been following along with Othais’ patent research and deep dives into revolver history.  Alexandre Fagnus finalized the “modern” lockwork but has remained almost entirely unknown and uncredited.  Well, we’re determined to set matters right.  You can help us research even more about the forgotten origins of the wheel gun by purchasing!

C&Rsenal

This is for the fan who simply wishes to spread the name of C&Rsenal.  Proudly wear it and know that any stain you get on it is technically canon; Othais immediately spilled something on his the day we got them in.

Old Guns

If this shirt becomes the top seller, Othais might cry.  This currently has the lowest time clocked on a graphic for the show, ever.  So buy this shirt and Mae will laugh.

What is C&Rsenal?

For most of you viewing this campaign, you already know who we are and what we do.  But just in case you’ve wandered in fresh: C&Rsenal is a small organization centered on historical firearms.  Our chief project is Primer, which is winding its way through the small arms of World War I in a series of long format video documentaries and demonstrations.

We dig deep into the research and present the clearest picture possible with the help of live fire demonstrations, period images and videos, and animations to show the operation of these machines.  It’s a laborious and expensive process and so we consume a healthy monthly budget. 

Why does C&Rsenal need this money?

Right now our generous patrons have kicked in plenty, so why do we need more?  Well we get into a rhythm with our funding and naturally, to make the best show, we tend to spend it to the penny on improvements or acquiring more research material, manufacturing obsolete cartridges, paying shipping and insurance on loaners, and local travel.

However, we like to try and strive for every possible arm we can.  Things like machine guns or exceedingly rare pieces we cannot have shipped require more travel.  We also can use extra funds for special projects like museum visits where we can pile up photos and videos of prototypes or other scarce artifacts for you to enjoy!  

So when you buy your shirt you’ll be contributing to our endeavor to be the first to bundle every single firearm of the war into one major virtual collection.

OK, but what do I get?

You get a shirt, a very soft shirt.  Pay money, get shirt.  I hope that much is clear!

The price tag reflects a bulk order, so we will start production AFTER the 30 day campaign.  We can’t spend money we don’t have folks and they won’t give it to us until the very end.  From there we order the necessary cotton shirts and begin the quality screen printing and shipments.

What about this color, that size, ladies shirts?

Since this is a bulk order we need at least 25 of each color and size combo to even make an order, 150 for each to be profitable. To simplify, each shirt is offered in one color, as featured in the photos.  The larger shirts are priced to match our extra costs, as they rarely exceed the 150 unit order size.  Ladies shirts have been attempted but have always cost us financially, and so are not being produced for sale.  We’re sorry!

A Note About VAT

Much has happened in the land of shipping and taxes since our last campaign. Previously the value of our product was not subject to VAT (Value Added Tax) in most instances. This may no longer be the case where you live. 

International shipments are sent out DDU – Delivery Duty Unpaid. This means that VAT is due upon receipt of the items and is owed by the recipient (you). Unfortunately, we are not large enough to sort through all the tax calculations for each individual country. Even the EU has different VAT calculations for certain countries. This is not applicable to all international customers, but we did want to make you aware in case there is an amount owed when the package arrives. 

Thank you for your support and understanding!
