A scruffy looking man on a bicycle just came into the shop and proceeded to reach into his front pocket and draw out a loaded Taurus .38spl revolver. When he looked up he was staring at my S&W 340PD .357mag pointing directly at his chest. He was surprised and asked if I was going to shoot him. I said I was thinking about it. He wanted to pawn his revolver but wanted too much. I reprimanded him telling him he should expect to be shot whenever he draws a handgun unannounced and that in the future he should bring it into the shop unloaded in a bag if he intends to display it. I can't tell you how many times this has happened to me and how stupid some folks can be.
Welcome from way down here in Florida where everyone has alligators, bikini models and palm trees in their yards. Well, at least according to the postcards. :D
Someone on another forum was confused by my use of the word "replica" in the photos. These are firing black powder cap & ball revolvers that replicate the original Colts, Remington & LePage. NOT dummy guns. Sorry for any confusion.
