With my luck, he'd do the bucket swan dive while in posession of my revolver and I'd play heck getin' it back.

Teddy's social media reputation isn't very good. Apparently, many folks online don't like him for his out spoken opinions on politics. He's been banned from a lot of forums and his posts removed.

But, no one disputes he's one of the best Smith & Wesson revolversmiths in the world.
I have heard good things from people who have sent him some of their guns. Nothing wrong with being old...if they can still do their work.

When you get to be that old...you are entitled to have your opinion.
