I have heard stories of the little people. Lots of stories seem to be based on fears and poor vision. I do agree that fossil records are incomplete.

RIA M200
Recently got a RIA M200 .38 Special. A clone of the Colt Police Positive, and made on the old Colt machinery. PillHer really likes it.
The group almost on the X is hers. 6 shots. I bought it for myself. It is hers now.- Thu Apr 04, 2024 7:09 pm
