[Ansteorra] Rapier Buckler Question

[Jhan Knebel]

http://www.swordworks.org/sca/clothing/Shields.html

Don Dore wrote an article that still holds true today. There is no official
minimum or maximum in Ansteorra, however most people don't make anything
bigger than the maximum size allowed at Gulf Wars. (And truth be told, when
fighting in kingdom and in tournaments, few people fight with anything that
large)
