I love the old ones far more than any of the new versions. We can mass produce anything today, but there were real craftsmen in the early days that did some amazing things with what they had to work with.

Thank you for the photos!

I like em all but really dig that pepperbox.
Modern guns don’t really wow me. They’re going to make a million _______ fill in the blank tomorrow. But they’ll never make any of those again. They were all hand forged and fitted not made by a machine.

I'll echo the 3 comments above, they are works of art or true craftsmanship, BUT they don't take happy sticks.. It is cool to see the yesteryear in firearms though.. Thanks for that..
