When I was a kid about 8-9, I got to ride the Tweetsie Railroad in its opening year 1957.
I never forgotten the experience
It was and still is a is a family owned and operated Western themed RR between Boone and Blowing Rock, North Carolina.

Thank you for a fine review and sharing the history of the gun itself.

An attempted assassination was made on President Franklin Roosevelt in Miami, Florida, on the evening of Feb. 15, 1933.
Italian immigrant Giuseppe Zangara approached and fired five shots intended for the president.
 Zangara missed his target and hit mayor Anton Cermak of Chicago and four bystanders instead. 
The mayor died of his wounds 19 days later.
Zangara used a five-shot .32 caliber United States Revolver Company pistol.

My grandfather, grandmother, and my Mom & Dad were in attendance as Roosevelt just had given a short speech. Two of bystanders were near my folks.

Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin of Israel attended a peace rally in Tel Aviv’s Kings Square on Nov. 4, 1995.
 Yigal Amir, a young far-right Israeli Jew shot Rabin twice, once in the arm and once in the back. Rabin died hours later in a nearby hospital.
Amir used a Beretta 84F semi-automatic pistol loaded with a mix of regular and hollow point bullets.
 Amir claimed that the prime minister wanted “to give our country to the Arabs.”

I just clicked on your link in the previous post, and then copied the URL at the top of the video.  That address did have .com in it.

Cool gun, too, thanks!  Dark History!  I'd say so!!  :o

Thanks Abilene. Yeah, the history on this one is a little dark but family history nonetheless.  ;)

Edit: still not understanding how to consistently embed the video here. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't and I get my links from the same place everytime.  ::)

Hi

Will Ghormley's patterns currently specify 9-10 Ounce leather.  I did a 6-7 ounce holster of the Lawdog holster and it was too floppy and I couldn't draw from it.

Later
