Chas B. Wolfson, SASS #11104 Posted December 18, 2019 Posted December 18, 2019 I was thinking that maybe it would be fun to show off our fancy guns for the holiday season going forward. My idea is that one of us every day post up pics of a BBQ or going to the square dance piece for the rest of us to enjoy. With one person posting each day, a new treasure would await us all. To get things started: First year, second gen-1956
Pat Riot Posted December 18, 2019 Posted December 18, 2019 I really don't have any BBQ guns or guns that I can really show off. I may have to remedy that someday...
Chas B. Wolfson, SASS #11104 Posted December 19, 2019 Author Posted December 19, 2019 Alright, how about another. Looking forward to someone else posting some pics tomorrow. Chas
Alpo Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Mine aren't all scratched up, like yours are. But I think the leather makes up for it.
Chas B. Wolfson, SASS #11104 Posted December 19, 2019 Author Posted December 19, 2019 Looks very good! Thanks for posting Chas
Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Sassparilla Kid's Beretta Stampedes. Christmas present to the lad when he was thirteen... "Personalized" by the late Texas Jack. Although not museum quality engraving, "bling-y" enough for CAS work. Note the whimsical sarsaparilla bottles blowing their corks on the bottom of the grips - intended to be visible when holstered. The Kid made the holsters and belt - now showing a bit of wear - when he was fourteen, using patterns donated by Jim Simmons, aka Brazos Jack. Not fast, but fun!
Wallaby Jack, SASS #44062 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 ........ just how tall is yer li'l boy ?
Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 ........ just how tall is yer li'l boy ? Well... that was a bunch o' years ago, but he hit 6' 2" in high school. Mighta added up to an inch by now ~ he's 28. The Kid's all arms and legs. Shoulda called 'im "Condor" for his wingspan.
Wallaby Jack, SASS #44062 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 does he get nosebleeds often ?
Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Only once. But ducks a lot.
Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Mine aren't all scratched up, like yours are. But I think the leather makes up for it. Alpo: Who did your leather? Gorgeous! LL
Alpo Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 That would be Eduardo Grande. He's out of the leather business, and I believe he may even have shuffled off this mortal coil. He sure used to whittle on a cow purty, though, didn't he.
Alpo Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Another view. He also made this one for my Number 3 Russian. I like them oak leaves a whole lot better than the roses that everybody else seems to want to carve.
punxsutawneypete Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 No engraved guns, but here is bling I wear on my hands all the time. The big green stone has an Mayan or Inca face.
evil dogooder Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Ive never been a fan of scratched up guns and wouldn't buy one, but they sure are pretty to look at.
Warden Callaway Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 I don't have anything to compaired to what's been posted but my new Model P Old Model in 38WCF has become my favorite for now. Old well used Colt SAA in 45Colt made in 62 with nickel plated 45Colt made in 71. I like it better with black eagle grips.
Yul Lose Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Ruger Old Armies, consecutive numbers, engraved by Captain Lewis with elk antler grips by Patrick Grashorn.
Capt. R. Hugh Kidnme Posted December 21, 2019 Posted December 21, 2019 Another view. He also made this one for my Number 3 Russian. I like them oak leaves a whole lot better than the roses that everybody else seems to want to carve. Spectacular work. Very nice.
