    Which one? Not here but yes the Colt .38-40 Bisley is...

    Also have a hard-used "sporterized" Krag w/ an original Weaver 2x post scope hacked onto it plus his horse scabbard .. Not super valuable, in decent shape but very cool/they were pretty poor folks and still shoots great. It sure shot a lot of animals out on the hard-core E. Plains.

    ETA: Sent this pic to Sheriff Maketa as I can assure you no way in hell would my Great Granddad have put up w/ what's going on! He left MO/tough job to come live in CO and be poor but free.
