You are not alone! A couple of years ago, after my Mother passed away, I was going through some of her possessions, when I stumbled onto these. She had saved them all these years, I thought they were long gone! Funny thing, I have owned every one of these in full size, either original or replica. The subconscious is a wonderful thing!

Is that from Johnny West? That's just reminded me. I agree about the message, those toys and films I watched has influenced me life and choices in things. Probably why I am drawn to the FL.

Now that you mention it, the Winchester and the Sharps are Johnny West. The rest was some cavalry trooper, can't remember who made it?

I here ya. AR platform can be fun but it will never replace nice walnut and blued steel, preferabley old wood. I new an orthopedic surgeon that voiced it by saying pretty guns shoot better.

Might have been! I must have gotten him right at the end of my toy playing days, when I discovered girls, since the firearms are in such good condition and I have no real recollection of him. Darn those girls, they ruin everything!

Here's the little Model 60 I posted a couple of months ago - now with new "Secret Service" grips and a 'new to me' Bianchi #56 paddle holster:

Sorry for the late reply on the 45 post with the mammoth ivory grips. I have not been well. The Fossill Mammoth Ivory Grips are made by my supplier of the ivory I make my jewelry from. I have not felt good enough to make my own and he also has them in Mammoth Tooth and Fossil Brain Coral. He is Charles at fineturnage.com thanks for the comments!

This is my second Model 12, I already have a 16 Gauge. And yes, I know now I will have to start looking for a 20.....

This one is a little strange, as it has a barrel that is riot/trench length, but has rifle sights on it. I mean real sights, like you find on a Model 70. Smooth bore, Cylinder marked. Gonna have to research it a bit more when I get it home.

Early 'shotgun only' deer gun? Model for export to Europe for driven boar? Interesting. You'll need to write to Winchester.
