An old gun

Last week I sold something via craigslist, and the buyer turned out to be a good guy.

I always have some trepidation about selling things that way because you never know who you’re going to encounter. I guess when you hear the doorbell ring you put yourself in “code orange” just to be safe. But this time, as soon as I saw who was at the door I knew I wouldn’t have a problem.

He was an EMT, evidenced by his clothing and badge, and I knew I’d be fine. 🙂

He was a very nice guy. We talked for quite a while about all manner of subjects. In the course of discussion I mentioned “Oh, up around Eagle Peak Shooting range“, which was followed with the “You a gun guy?” question, “Yup” and so merry talk of guns ensued. I also loved his comment of “You gotta love gun folk.” 🙂

He told me about this old gun that he had. I said I’d Google it later as it sounded interesting. To my pleasant surprise later that day he took some pictures and sent it to me, along with an entry from the 2003 Standard Catalog of Firearms. He graciously granted me permission to share it here.

Nifty little gun!
