My first eight was purchased in 1969, the week I left the Army. It was my ETS present, a mint, cased, bar in wood Westley Richards. I still have it. I have been buying and shooting eights ever since. Wow, that's fifty five years. Now, I only have one I can pick up and shoot. I think the rest are on their way out, much as I love them. I don't think I have ever sold an eight.
