New here.....

Post by mtsheron » Thu Oct 31, 2019 7:13 am

Hello. New here from NC and looking to purchase a Mares Leg in .45 Colt. I love the nostalgia of that weapon and am a big Steve McQueen fan and especially his Wanted: Dead or Alive series.

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.......

Welcome to the forum from CT. Glad you joined us. I just watched the entire series of Wanted: DOL last year. Every episode was a morality play, which characterizes most of the Western genre. I look forward to reading about your adventures with the .45 Mares Leg.

Welcome from Nebraska! I've never even held a mares leg. It will be interesting to hear your story with it.
