I think I went through 3 or 4 napkins wiping the drool.

Same Here. Cool old guns though.BrentD wrote:Some neat firearms. The TR rifles and pistols are definitely pretty cool. But I have NEVER understood the interest in the firearms of actors. I guess I'm not much interested in fantasy, though I liked the movies as entertainment just fine, the actual firearms used in the movies are, however, of zero interest as they no interesting history outside of Hollywoodphilia.
Barack said in one of his books that he owned a 1911. Editors & political staff edited that out of the book before publication.AJMD429 wrote:I saw all the ones from previous presidents; where's the one belonging to our current Great Leader...?

The Cartwrights, Quigley, etc. Little Joe's and Lucas McCain's guns were almost characters of their own! Who wouldn't recognize Josh Randell's (or Zoe's) Mare's Leg? Probably as quickly as the actor was recognized.
Sometimes the details of their prop guns are interesting. Either way, if it interests someone in firearms who would not other wise be interested....that's good, right.
Wouldn't you like to own the carbine Audie Murphy carried in the movie where he played....Audit Murphy?![]()
I am definitely not interested in guns that actors owned that were not prominent in media. Who cares if some has-been, B-lister is bankrupt (from drugs or wives) and wants to sell his "collection"?
I did too, until I looked at one closely. They are fakes.vancelw wrote:I have mixed emotions about that...
