Thanks Old Fuff..!
Will do.
I had kind of forgotten about them, so I appreciate the mention.
My mom and dad and I visited Dixie Gun works in 1963.
As we were about to walk in, Mr. Kirkland was pulling up in a roughly 1935 Packard Limosine, Chaufer Driven.
We paused, and I walked over, and not knowing who he was, I said "That is one nice Packard you have there..." ( I was ten ) and he says, "Thank you...do you know old Cars then?" And I said, "Only that I like them, and I can tell a Packard from a Buick from a Pierce Arrow from a Chrysler, from a Nash, from Hupmobile, from Marmon, from a..."
And he was laughing good naturedly, amused, and looking over to my parents.
He asked them if it would be alright for me to come with him for a spin, and they said sure, so...we went for a drive in the Packard, and you know, those are like powerful electric Streecars for smooth...it was sure fun.
Mr. Kirkland was ( and I hope is still around to continue to be! ) a true Gentleman and a good sport...very good people.
I met his son a few years ago at a Gun Show here...seemed like a fine fellow also...we had a nice conversation.
P.S.
I checked their listings, and, indeed, they carry extra Cylinders for the Uberti Remingtons...looks good!
