During the summer some high school cheerleaders were running a car wash in a parking lot at a local restaurant. I was on my way groundhog hunting and even though my truck wasn't all that dirty I pulled in to help the kids out. I guess someone saw my holstered 1860 Army sitting in the back and said something to the two State Police officers that had just pulled into the parking lot to eat at the restaurant.
One came over, the other wasn't all that interested and asked me about the revolver. He saw my orange hat so he knew that I was going hunting, real friendly. But when he saw my revolver he said, "What is that"? He pulled it out, asking permission first, and looked at it, admiring it. I told him all about it and how it loads, he then called his buddy over and he started admiring it and asking about it. They then put it back in its holster and said "good luck hunting' and walked away. Great stuff, friendly guys and real interested in black powder hunting, both were bow hunters. I really love this state as the police here are very knowledgeable about firearms and know their job.
Just thought I would share that with you all.
