Default The gun that started the whole thing....

Gentlemen, There is a story behind the guns that we showed at Baton Rouge. My great grandfather on my dad's side was a judge here in Texas. He carried this little gun with him to court every day, but he didn't wear it in a holster, he carried it in a leather glove. Now, I know that sounds a bit odd, but nobody ever gave it second look or thought anything of it. So, there is no leather to go with this little BBQ gun, just some great stories of 'Judge' who is somewhat of a legend in our family, and although I never met him, I know that he was quite a character!

And the story of the BBQ - Judge was quite a social creature. Well, I guess that anyone who was an elected official in those days was part of 'the boys club', and judge was not to be outdone. He had numerous BBQ's at our family's ranch in Central TX. That BBQ was the theme for our display at Baton Rouge.

Without further ado, here is the Judge's gun.
