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". 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 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.

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.
