    Frank died at the age of 72 leaving his wife Annie Ralston James and his son. He had been living on the James farm for a few years with Frank giving tours for 25 cents. I do hope that they had a comfortable life. When you think today how valuable anything is that can be proved belonged to Frank or Jessy James.

    Hi David I too have a Jesse James gun. The gun was documented by the man who set up the Jesse James Museum in Kearney Missouri all the provenance is in the Jesse James Museum archives. It's a 32 Caliber boot gun he got when he was in Quantrell Raiders during the Civil War I have never taken the grips off the gun I'd like to talk to you when you can I'll tell you the whole story then

    • @davidbaumann8683
      @davidbaumann8683 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Let me guess what type of boot pistol you have. I'd guess it's a Smith and Wesson number 2 , 32cal rim fire with a tip up barrel. Go ahead and get a screw driver and take the grips off. It's pretty easy. Hope you find something under there. Anyway on your pistol, to confirm it could have belonged to Jesse you need to identify what the pistol is then check the seril number with the factory archives to see what year the gun was manufactured.

      I've still got it. The purpose of this videos was to try to find information about it before I bought it in 2002. And I have. The originl person that put it up for auction in 2002 died before the gun was ever auctioned off and the auction house that auctioned it off dropped the ball when the revolver finally did come up for auction and said the blood stains on the grips were rust. It's a long story that I won't go into detail on youtube but I still have the gun and would like to sale it. I'm getting older now and have had it for 22 years, I'd like to sale it before I pass. Make me a resonable offer and it could be the main attraction in your Mr. Roy Jenks letter collection. call me at four 0 five eight 1 six 1340.

      It's funny isn't it how people are proud to be a 6th cousin of Jess's nowdays isn't it. When I talked to Jesse Jame's great grand son about this revolver on the History Channel years ago, he told me he didn't even know he was related to Jesse James until after his 18 birthday and when he was in the military. The real family members kept quit about it not wanting anyone to know they were related to him like it was a bad thing. Kinda like being related to Adolph Hitler, you kept your mouth shut. Now Jesse is Famous and everybody wants to be related to him at this day and time. I think the Adolph Hitler relitives are still being quit. Jesse robbed and killed a few people were Aldolph Hitler did it in the millions.

    • @davidbaumann8683
      @davidbaumann8683 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Think on this and let it sink in. The serial numbers most larger arms mahnufacturing companies put on their guns was for the company to keep track on how many they produced and that was all it was used for. The cheaper smaller companies didn't even bother to serial number their guns. A law wasn't put in effect until around 1960 requiring companies to serial number all guns. So back in the day no one kept track of serial numbers. You identified a gun by marking it or putting your name on it to know yours from another one that looked just like it. As far as bad guys grinding off serial numbers today usually means the gun is stolen and mabe used in another crime were a murder was commited and the only thing the police have is a bullet recovered from a body. Todays data bases can tie a gun used and recovered during a gas station robery in one state to a murder case in another state 20 years ago. Back in the day, serial numbers didn't mean anything, today the serial number is everthing for tracking down a gun.

      I'm beginning to think you don't know much about old guns. If the gun was well maintained threw it's lifetime, which this gun was. They are better made than the new ones. If you buy the good guns ,a Cold, Winchester, Smith & Wesson . Not the H & R's or Iver Johnston's. Get a old name brand gun or borrow one from somebody and shoot it then start making opinions . I even deer hunt with my old Winchesters, The 1873's and 1866's, my 50-70 Sharps, 1873 Springfield's in 45-70. Mind you none of my guns are wall hangers. They all function just as good as they did when new. I can wait until my grand kids get old enough to help ingeront old PaPa as you called me shoot the shit out of Jesse's revolver.

      I disagree with your opinion, I believe I have more brains than money. Why spend 700 to 1500 dollars on a modern repro gun when I have the real deal that was made to last forever and just shoot the shit out of it. Every body knows the manufactures 100 years ago took pride in what they produced and if it was taken care of correctly since it's manufacturing, it will work the same today. It's a whole lot funner to shoot a piece of history and just look at it. With me if I collected old model A cars, I'd drive them. My old guns will be around long after I'm gone. You go ahead and buy the modern repro guns and have fun shooting them. But when you get a little older and wiser you will stop and think. You know, for just a little bit more money that what this repro gun cost, I could have gotten the real deal and really have something I'd be proud of to pass on to my grand children and we both can shoot the shit out of it.

    History has left out that Jesse James faked his death and moved to Texas. Upon his death, his post mortem examination showed he died from complications of pnumonia. He had two bullet wounds that matched up to the two wounds Jesse James received at the end of the Civil War. Jesse James became good friends with Brushy Bill Roberts Aka Billy the kid, and passed away shortly after Billy the kid in 1950.

If you'd watched the video well enough I said I didn't find out about the documentation for over a year after he died. Only 3 of his closest friends knew about it and they were given instructions not to tell me because he was trying to get the gun back. The family tossed it in the trash because it was just clutter to them. The man was very wealthy and all the hundreds of antique colt and winchesters and other high dollar guns was just chump change to the family. The reason of this video is to find the person that put it in the auction in 2002. I contacted the auction house my self and since I wasn't the person that was the high bidder for the pistol and the fact that they weren't computerized in 2002 they couldn't help me or wouldn't.
