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.

No, me and my bride are going on 45 years. Lucky in love, married to the most perfect woman I have ever met.
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 ; - ) |

Civil War Springfield altered to shotgun.jpg Civil War Springfield altered to shotgun 02.jpg Winchester only "won the west" in the movies and on TV. This was the conclusion at a Remington Society seminar years ago where Schuyler, Hartley & Graham shipping records being discussed showed thousands of these converted Springfields being shipped west for every Winchester, Remington or Colt. |
