Dad loved dogs, the only time I ever saw him cry was when our family dog passed.
He always spoke fondly of the begals he raised and bred, one in particular named Duchess. She had a knack of barking wherever she was when she heard her name called and racing back to him.
Just hours before dad died, he sat up looking out the hospital window and said Duchess was out on the grounds chasing a rabbit. Mom looked out the glass and said she didn't see her. Dad said she's out of sight now but I hear her bawling, she's on the hunt.
I can only infer that this was Duchess's turn to call dad home.

Your grandpa too, great family history, great Americans.

That kills the value. I have a 2nd generation Walker made long ago by Umberti. Like shooting a magnum with 50gr black powder.

Rough day.
The man whom taught me to hunt, fish, never whine and by example; how to honor the women in my life, passed 5 years ago today.
He was old school, tough, unapologetic and worked hard for the family. 92 years young, WWII vet and still sharp as a tack. I think he had a pretty good run

Looking for some percussion and conversion pistols. If you have one of those imitation Patterson, Walker or Dixon Colts, PM me.
I'll look at percussion muskets too.

I told you where the scammer thing came from. And this and other ads may be legit but youre messaged by a scammer who has hacked his profile. Understand?
I believe Josh works nights so he's not able to get with moderators to straighten his account out. I've left a message on his home phone.

I'm sure you're correct. Meanwhile, caution, he's been hacked by a scammer. The hacker reached out to me via a PM and wanted money sent to KY with a phone number I didn't recognize out of CO.
I tried doing business with UggRedBilly akaJosh? Weeks ago so I believe I already had a good 480 number for him in the east valley.

Very interesting. I was recently reading about how the first 1873s were shipped from Colt to the civilian market in Dec 1875
