Winchester 1892 in good company.
I have put these items together in the last 20 years even though I have collected for 40 years. I decided to put them together for a photo. I thought some of y'all might want to see it. It is mostly made up of things from an old "Wild West Show".

Very nice, Rangerider! That would make a nice calendar photo.

Great picture. I like the way that handgun hangs in the holster.

Seeing pics of 1892's always makes me want one!
Re: Winchester 1892 in good company.
Great picture, but what is the lever gun hiding around the corner?

7,
I've just got to add my compliments too. Some very nice articles, I like the 1892 especially. Nothing like the genuine stuff from the past to give you that warm, fuzzy feeling!!

Re: Winchester 1892 in good company.
A museum isn't a bad thing, especially if it reflects an age and time where things were better than today. It gives me a fond memory of being on the family ranch back in the good ole' days. I guess reflecting on the past is something I enjoy, or perhaps it is just a sign of getting old(er). I do miss those simple days. Thanks for the picture.rangerider7 wrote:Thanks guys.
