But it would be nice to have a gun that old,and that much history with it.
nathanielrthomas said:The history is nice and all, but sometimes overrated. How much can we actually learn from a civil war pistol? Nothing that hasnt already been learned, right? Its basically just a rich man's conversation piece. If I was her, and no charges were pending, Id be wanting some money. Sure, she doesnt know where or how her father got it, but I bet it wasnt given to him. Im sure he paid something, maybe a lot. He was obviously pretty well off to even have 200 year old pistol laying around in the first place. Id want something in return for giving back the gun. Id at least demand a thorough investigation to prove that it is indeed the same gun...Im not letting go of $50,000 without a fight, period. Especially when no one is in danger or nothing is on the line. I mean hell, they dont even know who stole the darn thing..
Wonder if they still sell .36 caliber ammo? :LOL2:
Sorry in advance...
