Followed me right out of the store

Post by Vaquero » Tue Jun 01, 2021 10:18 pm

Well, this afternoon we got off werk a little early because of the weather.
Was killing time waiting for a haircut appointment.
Stopped by the local Gander Outdoors, a place I hardly ever visit.
Not much for ammo except Shotgun shells.
Quite a few rifles, no Henrys except a single 12 ga.

Looking at the handguns, they had quite a few used ones.
Saw this guy, and it just didn't want to stay there any longer and followed me home.
45 colt 1873 by Pietta.

Didn't get a chance to try it out, as when I got home the grandson was here.
In the next day or so I will sling a little lead and let ya know what I think.

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.......

I must say, I really like the sign on top of the box.

Only one firearm related sticker on it now, but most don't even know what that one is.
Then the Gadsden flag tag on the front.
This one will go on the bench or the safe most likely.

Randy, I have the exact Pietta revolver except my grips are a checkered plastic type. You're going to really like that one. Nice find.

Good find. I try to walk faster so things can't follow me home as much as they used to.
