    On the topic of Yellowstone, Kevin Costner said in an interview that the Winchester that he carries and uses on the show is actually his Father's gun that was handed down to him! I'm not sure how old it actually is, but he did say he got in trouble at school for trying to take it to show and tell! He said it still has some scratches on the butt stock from when he dragged it down the street on the way to school. Loved this video, I really love to see the original firearms with the original black powder.

When it gets passed on to John I know he will care for it well also,and something tells me when it's your grandson Davies turn to care for it will also get a good home.

    Hey Hickok I have been working on testing the safety notch on the Colt Single Action Army. From originals to Modern replicas. Using CAD I did destructive testing. I learned that it takes anywhere between 850 to almost 1000 ft lbs to cause a failure. that is a conservative number. being that we modeled a fairly low grade steel, that wasn't even hardened. In the past I have found that the CAD programs are within 3 to 5% of real life. the weak link is the trigger pin/ screw. It's the most common failure point. While going threw all the military testing documents. It showed there was no failure of the safety notch. The only failure they had relating, was a half cock notch broke. but it was listed as a clear and obvious manufacturing defect. Also the story of the man putting his saddle on and the stirrup hitting his hammer. We discovered that he had the hammer resting on the primer. It was not in the safety notch. I'm still looking for any record of a failure of the safety notch. I haven't found any yet. I will continue to carry five and always advise other people to do so. you can never be too safe. Thought you might find this interesting.

    "1883" is an excellent series and I thoroughly enjoyed your 1883 shooting presentation. My choices would have been the S&W Scholfield for a pistol and a Henry Rifle for my long gun. Can't beat a short barreled 12 ga regardless of the make. Why the Scholfield - easier to load fast since it is a top break and throws all six (or five) empties at once and you can quickly load it. That speed could come in handy in 1883. Also I like the Henry's tube feed better than the Winchester's loading gate. Personal preference as you said.

      Does the Henry rifle have a side loading gate? That's why I would prefer a Winchester 73 (which is also a good movie)

    Black powder is beautiful. Its smoke, its smell, the tongue of fire when shooting at night. I used this gunpowder a lot when hunting in MT.

    When the 1847 Walker came out,it cost $24, about 3 months pay. Now we can buy one for around $420, 1-4 days pay for many .

    Very nice video these kind of firearm are some of my most favorite ones to see it makes me want to shoot but I have to wait for a while to shoot a rifle or shotgun because I had neck surgery 2 months ago and I’m trying to recover

    In 1883, I would have picked a Beretta CX4 storm or an FN PS90 to use in CQB.
    A solid AR with a ACOG for a primary rifle & my trusty Glock 23 MOS for a sidearm.
    Those were all around in 1883, right?
    This is a fun video.
    It's cool to see how my collection might have looked in the 1800's & it's even cooler to see these guns that are well over 100 years old still able to ring that steel.

    I watched 1883 and do agree it was much better than I expected. Tim Mcgraw, and Faith Hill were better actors than I expected.
    Just saw you were born July 11th 1950, I was born the 19th same year in TX, smiling. Might be something about Guns, Harleys, and the southern way.
