Just for fun, these photos from about 1980. With Ruger 5" Super Blackhawk, and a .45 Colt Bisley:





No, and not made by Matthew Brady.

And, some forty years later:

Nice. Looks like Ansel Adams...shades of gray. :lol:

At the time I was writing a gun article for a small outdoor publication and photos had to be black and white, so most of my photos were with B&W film. Small, and now defunct publication, The Tennessee Sportsman."

"The Tennessee Sportsman", I remember that publication.

When I was a kid in Memphis we did most of our shooting behind what is now the Memphis Police Academy off of Highway 51. I grew up in Frayser.

"From the last Century" sounds ominous...

Is that a different hat? What, they don't last 40 some odd years???

Great pictures, by the way...

My everyday hats don't seem to last so long. Rain, snow, and sun take their toll.
