The best thing that happened as far as shooters/reenactors are concerned is the use of repros. When the CW re-enacting first got started before 1960, they used original guns, rifle muskets, revolvers, etc. Which meant that antiques got beat up and altered (how about a Remington 1858 with S&W adjustable sights!?!). Then Val Forgett of Navy Arms got the Italians to build repro percussion revolvers and we were off to the races.
