Interested reading....I looked in my copy of "The Texas Rangers a Century of Frontier Defense" by Walter Prescott Webb written in 1935 and under the topic of "Frank Hamer: Modern Texas Ranger" read the following: From notes taken during a two hour interview dated July 4th, 1934.....

I am trying to research a Heiser Model #126 shoulder holster. Any information you could provide (dates manufactured, what handgun it was made for, etc.) would be appreciated. Also, if you have a ball value I would appreciate your input.

Thank you,

Appreciate all the replies. My grandson already shoots a NEF with M4 style stock in .243 and handles the recoil pretty well. My grandaughter will break the bank shooting a 10/22 with shortened stock. They have a Topper Jr. 20 gauge deluxe and my grandson's NEF has a 20 gauge barrel. What I was think...
