Adolph Vancinghand, SASS #28923 Posted April 19, 2018 Posted April 19, 2018 My choice for any "wheelgun only" barbecues. Leather tooling by the Almighty himself (sewn together by Andrews Leather).
Adolph Vancinghand, SASS #28923 Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 The flap holster? Absolutely. Loxodonta Africana hide makes for mighty durable gunleather.
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 My wife tells me I'm taking BBQ and Cowboy too far. Not sure what she means by that.

I also take note of the court gun, don't know if I own one or not. HOWEVER I do own a Church gun which no one else has mentioned. I've owned that one for many years. None of those would be confused with CAS guns. kR Tell us about your Church Gun. I’d always understood they would be a smaller caliber, pocket pistol type. Seamus
Tall Tale Todd Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 Cold Lake, I think you've taken BBQ and Cowboy EXACTLY the right distance.
Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 Ate at Stubb's barbeque in Austin two weeks ago and saw no guns. So far my only Texas bbq experience.

Red, In as much as I was born in Austin (a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away), I can assure you that there's a WORLD of difference between "Austin" and "Texas" these days. And besides, BBQ guns have always been a "private affair" kind of thing...not so much in public! Just in case, I'm turning my flame retardant mode to "ON"... "Ad"

Adolph Vancinghand, SASS #28923 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 ...except Austin is on the Colorado. See? I really DID grow up there! "Cali on the Colorado"? "Ad"

Trigger Mike Posted April 24, 2018 Author Posted April 24, 2018 My prom night gun is a double barrel coach gun with rabbit ears. A TTN 12 gauge. I like the one i heard recently where the father throws the shells at the boy picking up his daughter for a date and says, "they travel much faster at you if you bring her home late"
Smuteye John SASS#24774 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Didn't do guns on my nieces' proms. Didn't need to since both boys had already been out with the family on a family range trip. Not only had they seen the adults shoot but they'd seen the girls shoot, too. Their Momma shooting clothes pins at 25 yards with an M-1 Carbine seem to make the most impression for some reason. Knife "sharpening" (it was already sharp) complete with the old 'shave the hair off the back of your hand' test combined with a lingering look in the eye did the trick. A couple light passes over the bench stone right as they come in and then pull out the leather strop and work the blade while they perch on other end of the couch seems to work.

Lost Trail Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 I’ve been to BBQ’s in TX, MT, CO, ID where folks wear guns. I’ve done it myself. BUT, as soon as alcohol gets introduced, firearms should get put away. I have left parties, BBQ’s and even hunting camps where people started drinking then wanted to fondle firearms.
Festus G Lonetree Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 If we're gonna BBQ up some bear, I'm bringing my S&W 629-5 .44 mag .
