My 3.5" Modified 1934 production 38/44 Outdoorsman with stag stocks
The fellow who owned it was a law enforcement officer who desperately wanted the new 3.5" Registered Magnum, but it was too expensive so he modified this one. Luckily he did not ream out the chambers!

Hard Working Team
This team was my deer hunting go-to for several years, and was responsible for my very first handgun whitetail. This is a 6" M25-9 .45 Colt, paired with a Rigid belt knife.

Interesting thing about this gun. I really wanted to use it with a hard-hitting heavy cast bullet, something in the 300 gr. range, and it had promising accuracy with the first load I worked up. Problem was, at 50 yards with the rear sight buried, it was shooting about 8 inches high. So, I went online to the Cast Boolits forum and posted a request for help. In short order, I got a reply from none other than John Taffin himself, suggesting that I either, 1.) have a gunsmith build up the front sight, or 2.) switch to a lighter bullet. Well, I wasn't too anxious to alter my all-original .45, so I started messing around with lighter bullets. Eventually, I found a load using a 225 gr. JHP that printed exactly at point of aim, at 50 yards with the sight still buried. That combo has accounted for a substantial amount of venison.

"You talkin' tuh me?"
3/4" barrel, 22 magnum, 5-shot folding revolver, and a miniature switchblade knife I bought in Italy about 30 years ago.
I didn't just "pick them up", I bought them!

Here are pictures of my black powder Uberti replica Colt Walker revolver, 9" barrel, 44 caliber, along with a holster I made for it.
I purchased the switchblade knife in Italy. It has a 7" blade and is 15" long over all.

The 1892 silver half dollar coin was given to me in 1960 by my paternal grandmother. She got it at that year's Columbus Exposition celebrating the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America.
