He had one or more of his personal Model 58's remarked .41 Keith, and he was one of the first to recognize the poor bullet quality and diameter as being central to the police round's lack of accuracy and bore leading. Tom died early from, I believe, cancer.

He was a real Texas cop.
Mr. Ferguson died from lung cancer.(he was a heavy chain smoker)
