I grew up reading Skeeters exploits and adventures. Though time and circumstance, I've been able to meet a few that knew him "in the day". While I didn't get the chance to know Skeeter myself, reading every one of his writings and listening to stories about him; I think he would have wanted and would have pestered S&W in his writings for what I feel he would called his favorite handgun: A 5" Mountain Gun wearing his proprietary "Roper" style stocks with a Performance Center action job.
I think S&W missed a bigun' on there!
My 4" MG (629-4) wearing a set of Kurak's round to square butt Coke style conversions and a Verne Trester 3lb single action job is as close as I can come.
BTW: A great story with a very illustrative writing style, by the way!!!!
