Similar situation here; I occasionally remind her grace (SWMBO) when I'm losing the argument-actually a skillful disengâgement on my part after 36 years- that "I'll do until MR WONDERFUL comes along".:nope: She'll brighten up when her baby comes home for Christmas from her new two weekold job-meantime, thank heavens for Skype: the panacea to empty-nest-syndrome!

Why keep my powder dry and the nipples tight! just like Wild Bill:sunny: This particular gem is an actual 1855 cased '51 Colt's Navy with English style partitions lined with old green baize and contains a small original Colt pistol flask, Colt .36 caliber double cavity bullet mould, original tin of Eley caps, and a nipple wrench. The wood case is not original but the action is still tight. I have two other cased Colt's Navy's. Unfortunately the finish is 'partially' restored which is a negative against the asking price and there is no provenance as a combat weapon.

Tranquilizer gun? I'm sure her look of surprise will end swiftly when she realizes you just put a dart in her tush.:O:

Army or Navy don't make much difference to me, BUT it is still a nice piece and probably would bring a fairly good price at auction. If I had it I sure would not want to sell it.

That is a QB57 Air Rifle.
Probably the next model to disappear from the market.
Much like the QB6 and the BAM B3.
I have the QB6 and still searching for that AK-47 looking Bam B3.
:yep:
