Always tell who has never owned a Dan Wesson Revolver.
Funny how the toughest, most accurate winning double action production revolver ever in the hardest wear and tear competition thought up just gets ignored.
But for fellers like me who just kept buying those versatile barrel swappers it worked out for the best.

Dude!o_O In her prime, at her absolute best, Katherine Hepburn wasn't even a zit on Maureens alabaster butt!!!:rofl: More like a Rolls Royce Phantom II vs a Yugo! Dear Lord! You think you know a guy and then he comes up with something like that!

Thought about purchasing either a 357 DW Pistol Pack, or the Python, in the mid 70's. Lived in Detroit and couldn't find any in the LGS, I frequented.. Internet shopping wasn't invented back then. Ran across a new 6" Royal Blue Python and purchased that for the princely sum of $369, IIRC.

Less than one week after the Python purchase, I bought my Browning HP. IIRC, paid about the same amount for it. Those were my first handgun purchases.

2 Items.

1. In my younger years, Lauren Hutton and Ann Margaret.
2. Not a Python, but a local auction has a an older 6-shot 357 7-1/2' Redhawk on the block that has caught my eye. The last/only one I have ever seen had $750 asking price 3 years ago.

the Dan's are getting that same way too.
i recall seeing the 357-6" guns all over the place for 300 bucks, and a 44 wasn't far off that price depending on the barrel and finish.
i totally regret swapping out the couple of semi-duplicates i had when i did, it seems like if i had waited just 1 year i could have doubled my money.
as it is,,, a barrel is close to 300 bucks now.

I almost stepped in it ..........Rooster Cogburn I immediately went to True Grit which featured Kim Darby .......

The above of course reflects on my pup like nature here ....... Raquel Welch , also well out of my age group ........also not in the same class ....... Unfortunately most of my correct age group panting after women only did 3-4 films and dropped out of sight leaving me with just an affinity for older women .

Kate Hepburn did about as much for me Glenn Close .... Murine O'Hare on the other hand even late in her career ...... Yep .

Maryanne , no contest ......but I met her once at a dinner party , she was just folks .

Wanted to be a Dodge guy but Ford's seem to follow me home .

Blue and walnut , though SS and a nice ebony tipped maple wouldn't be bad .

Why is jeweling dieing out ? Wouldn't a jeweled blued bolt just be an electric off set in a SS action ? It'd look like black fish scales if a whole frame were done then blued . Not in the same class with color case but unique .

Ann Margaret...wow! One of kind there. And Ursula Andress- put together naturally in a way women today pay hundreds of thousand$ to imitate. Classics!

Isn't it great that we can all have differing opinions? And not a bit of it really matters! I've been up close to Glenn Close, Sigourny Weaver and Loretta Swit. Ick! Those makeup people in Hollyweird can work miracles. Whats it matter? It doesn't.

Yeah funny that . When I was in with the air racing crowd I met a lot of people that really it would have been ok for them to be a little bit full of themselves . They had titles , and world records , sometimes several records , some of them were just rockstars in their own right . They were for the most part just folks , Joanne Ostrud wandered into my hanger one afternoon and asked if there was someplace cool she could lay down for a couple of hours and get cooled off before she went on to Everett Washington from Phoenix . 4 hr in the heat just beat her up ....little bitty thing about 100# , outside loop record holder . Bob Hoover was exactly like his videos . RAdm David Griggs , the astronaut that rigged the butterfly net deal on the space shuttle to catch the satellite , was a really nice guy to and his other wasn't bad looking either .
Debbie Geary was a doll in every sense except the stuffed shirt , she married the president of Ballanca Aircraft after flying airshows for them for 10 years or so and continued to do so even after the company faded away .

Give me soft red auburn with a southern , Aussi or Scott lilt that sounds like a big hit of bourbon and I'm a mess .

My first Love was a little Redhead with Big Brown eyes and all the temper that Redhair evokes. Had a figure that would have put 1976-Dolly Parton to shame. She once broke one of My ribs with Her elbow, for swiveling My head to watch a waitress.
Still talk to Her occasionally.

Maureen O'Hara definitely had better legs then Katherine Hepburn. Hard to say who had a more fiery temper.

I admit that I am an admirer of Maureen O'Haras, not just because she was in a lot of movies I loved, but because she had class, integrity, faith and took a beating from jerks like John Ford, (incredible director, loathsome human being), and her first husband and still came out on top. She got treated like crap for a long time, what we'd definitely refer to as "abusive actions" and she had the steel in her backbone to deal with it and not turn to drink, drugs, etc. or to cower. As far as looks, yeah, sorry if my attempt at humor fell flat and offended anyone, but Ms Hepburn never lit my candles even a little. That aside, the lady could act! "The African Queen" is a movie I can watch repeatedly, just like "The Quiet Man" or "Rio Grande". OTOH, I can also watch "Star Crash" or Capt Kronos- Vampire Hunter" just to look at Caroline Munro. The movies are awful, but Caroline was another Ursula Andress type.

Actually, when you get into discussions like this it all comes down to sheer opinion, kinda like those who like plastic and stainless steel and those who like walnut and blued steel. To each their own and the heck with anyone else!

Yep opinion is what makes us all individuals and makes America Great... as long as the destroyers move on.
I see a Dan Wesson and the fever hits. Old Military flintlocks also.
