It is so nice to see these classic American pieces of history displayed in an artistic and tactful manner.
I believe any American gun that somebody thinks is worthy of sharing pictures with others who appreciate these old beauties, should present them in an artistic manner and not on a tailgate or laid out across the powerplant of a Maserati or Porsche. .

Wow, if that old guy could talk! Like an old friend said, "We love the old guns because they harbor old men's souls!"

A couple more views from my living room.

While a 12 gauge Lifter rests at the fireplace.

As a side note; The old lifter is leaning against the fireplace, right where she placed it. Next stop, up on a wall. Just a well worn old 12 gauge, but old lifters make great wall art. BTW, last night was one of those 3rd glass nights, where I usually try to just read - not post - but it looks like I didn't cause any major damage ; - ) |

P.S. to the above. This is the room where we watch television. What's not shown, is the coffee table in front of the couch, with a couple of vintage pistolas from the late 1800s.
My wife calls it "playing cowboy". Dinner, a glass of wine, and an old western from the 50s/60s makes a fine evening. |
