The men wore iron helmets and very high boots.

Each trooper seems to have been armed with a matchlock musket and a bayonet, and wore a collar of bandoliers. There were, however, twelve men in each troop not thus armed, but carrying halberds and pistols. These same twelve probably also carried hand grenades.

By an order dated February 21st, 1687, Dragoons were ordered to have "snaphanse musquets, strapt, with bright barrels of three foote eight inches long, cartouche boxes, bayonets, granado pouches, bucketts, and hammer-hatchetts."

The following is from a contemporary MS. belonging to the Regiment:—

To 133 ells of Linning for 38 Dragoon shirts.
45 ditto for necks.
48½ ells musline.
8" sylks.
8 hatchets.
48 suit of furrage & caps.
210 ells whyte and bleu lining for Dragoon frocks.
48 cocades.
48 shoe buckels."

From a Coloured Drawing in the British Museum, dated 1742.
