It had belonged to a SASS guy and was all slicked up and had the free spinning pawl. It was a pleasure to shoot.

Several ferrymen were shot and the tolls stolen over those years, and the trail from there up to Groveland was notorious as a haunt of highwaymen. No one was safe taking that road alone. I guess all the graffiti is somewhat of an improvement.c w swansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02735507642689652780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533651942397782565.post-51162595197471880402019-12-31T12:26:00.780-08:002019-12-31T12:26:00.780-08:00Nicely done, Rob, that is in fact the place.

I own a Sauer & Sohn .45LC SAA pattern revolver that I purchased in a pawn shop in the late 1980s. It is an excellent firearm, despite some light abuse by a previous owner, and one of the most accurate wheelguns I've ever fired. I consider the modern .45LC of the finest "man-stopper" rounds ever created. It hits like a truck without the nasty over-penetration tendencies of magnums. In the "velocity vs mass" debate, I will go for mass every time -- at least in handgun calibers.Jar(egg)headhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05830698118105774225noreply@blogger.com
