A Man and his Rifle...

Here's the infamous .454 levergun, back when it was new, and I was much younger:

Great looking photo Buck! You look like one serious hombre...... Do you still have the rifle?

How's this for "serious...?"

I was security officer at Old Trail town for a couple seasons.

The rifle now resides in Alaska...

If more men loved and cherished their wives as much as I love bacon the world would be a much better place.

OK. Just a newbie here, so I have to ask . . .

. . . what's the "infamous .454 levergun". . .?

I'll get a jigger of iced Jack and set back awhile, if there's a story to hear... :wink:

It's a long story, but bears re-telling, I reckon.

I'll see what I can do.

Better get a BIG jug of Jack...
