after president john kenndy was killed is when all the mail order guns were done away with..i too as a boy could buy a gun and ammo you could even by dynamite as a kid...when i was 10 i traded a older gent my daddys pocket watch that had chimes in it for a top break 38 smith and wesson ...2 nd time i shot this gun one half of of the breach area broke off the old gent had brazed and put shoe polish on it to hide the brazing...i shot it sum with a rubber band to hold it together..i finally sold the trigger spring out of it for 50 cents and the gun was lost in history...charlie
