Well........I've never thought of it as anything more than a collection! I buy, sell, build, collect and collaborate (I am a Conversion gunsmith and do work for a well known "drop in" cylinder manufacturer). But, finding like minded souls in these parts (rural TX) is tough......if you ever want to have a "get together" let me know!Hoof Hearted, what's the name of your museum??? I live in Idaho, but if you've got visiting hours I might have to make a trip down there some day LOL. What is the history on the Remie's with the laynard rings, cavalry? Beautiful collection, thanks for posting it!!
