Our arsenal included, as shown in the following photo...On left-Original Walter Cooper Sharps, circ. 1877, in 40-90 bottleneck; next, Shiloh Sharps in 45-70 (a project gun my brother picked up at auction after it had been in a fire for $12.00), next an original Winchester 1886 made in 1887, marked "Browning Bros, Ogden, Utah Territory" The 1886 is in 40-65 caliber and sports a rare single set trigger. The Colt SAA is a 38-40 shipped to St. Louis in 1911. The picture is also in front of a sandstone rock in a pass area not far from Musselshell MT. If you look close you will see the names scratched in the sandstone dating back to 1901.

This photo is the result of his second shot, the first being a ranging shot that some would call a miss.
