Lucky Lead Pepper Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Hard to call just one a favorite. I guess my top 5 would be: The Searchers, Rio Bravo, Hondo, Fort Apache, and She Wore a Yellow Ribbon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 I was working in the Cimarron/Texas Jack tent at Mule Camp some years ago, and John Wayne's birthday was on one of the shoot days. We had a Chiappa big-loop '92 on the table, and I thought for sure it would draw some interest as a result, but nobody paid any attention. I think my favorite is True Grit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
