I loved tombstone but I also really liked Outlaw Josey Wales. Id have a hard time choosing which one I like better.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Yes Al, Josey Wales was excellent as well. Is also on my favorite list. :)

But, but, Alan Ladd was Shane! He couldn't possibly have it wrong.
Just kidding here. Still, I liked the movie. 8-)

Did you ever notice that Josie used cap and ball Colts but he had a cartridge Sharps with a scope site?

Yes, they appeared to 1860's, and there's a scene where he is changing the cylinders for a reload.
Which not as easy as they made it look.
Now the 1858 is much easier and quicker to change.
But I agree still a good movie.

I don't recall a scene in The Outlaw Josey Wales where he is swapping a cylinder.
I think you are referring to 'Pale Rider' - where he is doing so in the final shootout scene.

I remember that scene. I think he was walking while swapping. Can't remember which movie either.
