Bring back this show. I miss it very much. Rock On Colt !!!
Those are two great guy's.
The Dukes Colt is in good hands.
even if you dont aprove of firearms, i highly advise visiting the museum. the history, the artistry and the serious amount of craftsmenship is very well worth it. they even have a movie section. 2 firearms there, they had engraving so well done, they set up magnifying glass' so you could see the amount of care and detail that was involved.
does anyone remember at knotts beery farm in the 70s ,they had the john wayne theatre where they had all the guns from his films,always wonder what happened to them when they changed it to something else don't remember.
My understanding is that the last SAA revolver that John Wayne used in The Shootist was a Hawes Sauer Western Marshall gun? Can you please confirm that?
Hey guys,great gun as always.
I wonder why Wayne carried his gun so far back and kind of sloppy?He had a particular style of carry that he used in most of his cowboy movies but I'm not sure if he did it for the look or the function.
Also,I was reading an old American Rifleman fom the 60s and it had a list of gun museums and it said that Disneyland had a gun museum in Frontierland?If so,whatever happened to it?
i Think not the 1873 model Colt have any crossbolt on it.
when you show those guns you should wear a spacesuit to ridiculous
Awful fitting of the grips.
