Wolf & Klar "Engraved" Colt SAA Seen On TV

[Wyatt Burp]

Last night I watched a new show about museums (forgot the name) and it highlighted a 1930 Colt SAA .45 that belonged to a Texas Ranger Captain from the 50's named Alfred Y. Allee Sr. I froze the picture and there was a great closeup of the unmistaken W&K pawnshop engraving. It also sported silver mexican stocks ornamented with a Texas emblem, ruby eye, and all the usual berries and engraving typical of these. The show was in Texas and the "expert" didn't mention W&K but did have the sense to tell the host they would not shoot it when the guy wanted to. Anyone else see that show and remember the name?

Re: Alfred Allee, Texas Ranger

That's interesting. There's a A.Y. Allee Jr. "Our" A.Y. Allee was his dad and apparently was a very tough guy with a short temper. But not, it seems, as much so as his trigger happy grandfather. Thanks, Merrill.

There are several generations of Allee Rangers; A Y Jr and A Y are buried in Carrizo Springs, Texas. See Joaquin Jackson's "One Ranger" & "One Ranger Returns" for some recent events involving both generations.

Their father / grandfather was killed in Crystal City, Texas, after he had killed another man in a dispute.

He was killed by the son of the man he had just killed.
