Old West: History Guns & Gear Volume 2

Guns tell stories, and those associated with the Wild West surely have thrilling tales to tell.
This edition explores the guns of the time, including some unusual samples like the Army’s last flintlock pistol. Inside is plenty of other stories about ammo, accessories, the frontier lifestyle and even saloons — the tales and history that give the historical West its mystique.
Half the fun of old guns comes from the stories of how they arrived in the here and now. Ever wonder about arms of Native Americans? Their weaponry sure made an impression on General Custer. The guns themselves tell part of the story, but if you really want to get in touch with the times, you’ll want to read about where off-duty warriors and cowboys spent their leisure time and hard-earned cash.
The original guns are nostalgic — and often priceless. No worries, inside are stories on modern reproductions that give the originals a run for their money. In this volume, we’ll explore modern takes on old classics like the Dixie Gun Works Remington New Model Army, Uberti Hombre, Beretta Stampede, the Taurus Lightning/Thunderbolt, Chiappa Spencer Carbine and Pedersoli Springfield 1873 Trapdoor just to name a few.
So, get this book, sit back, pour a whiskey (but not the frontier stuff — it was rotgut terrible), and enjoy a taste of the Old West.
