I learned my lesson years ago. I bought a .45 colt new frontier 5 1/2" like new for $250s from a pawn shop. I enjoyed shooting it a couple times. I then researched it and found out audie murphy had bought it new! I thought I just won the lotto! I put it in the safe and never shot it again. Then I got married, a few years later it disappered when she ran off. I wish now I had shot the hell out of it!
