Kirk,

Thank you for relating that to us. A further confirmation of what a marvelous human being and great president, President Reagan was.

Kirk:

What a great story. Are there pictures of that gun around for people to see. It sounds like it was magnificent.

President Reagan will be missed forever. I'm lucky to have lived during his time in office.

Wolf is the only one with a picture now. I had an album of all the fancy guns Wolf had made this gun included, and left it in our show room for people to look at, and about 9 years ago someone really liked what they saw and took it home with them. I am going to try and talk Wolf out of borrowing his picture and make a copy of it and find someone smarter than me to get it on the Net. I see Lee Stone knows how to do it, I am going to need some help. Thanks Kirk

It is sad that we cant call upon his wisdom in times like these.One wonders how he would have handled things. I just hope we can still grow em like that, someone who actually beleives in America. Rest in peace Mr. President. thanks for the memories.

Kirk, thank you for the post.

Maybe they will have the rifle at the library. I pass by there on my way to Camarillo when I visit my inlaws.
