| Hard to believe it's been 13 years now since I owned this old "bullet buggy" but it was a good truck. These images were made in 2006, when we located a small portion of one of Confederate General Hindman's 1862 Camps, that had not been hunted to death yet. Dug some bullets, a Bust Dime, and super nice Confederate Lined -I- button. That truck sure brings back old memories, and the link on it goes to a few pictures of the campsite in late fall, early winter. |

| " Our camp was beautifully and pleasantly situated upon a ridge of woodland, with a small stream of good water flowing close by, and was called Camp Pritchard, as a tribute to the memory of that highly esteemed soldier. [Lt. Col. James A. Pritchard] We remained here about a month, when we were roused up one fine, frosty morning, at two o' clock, by the long roll, and ordered to prepare three days' rations, and hold ourselves in readiness to march at daylight." -Private Ephraim McDowell Anderson, Co. G, 2nd Missouri Infantry, First Missouri Brigade, C.S.A. - Camp near Holly Springs, Mississippi - October, 1862 - From the book, " Memoirs Historical And Personal Including the Campaigns of the First Missouri Confederate Brigade" - Edited by Ed Bearss |

| Nice Fully Functional ca. 1860's Allen & Wheelock 7-Shot .22 Caliber Side Hammer Revolver |
|
| Here's a Nice Allen & Wheelock Sidehammer Revolver! It's a little seven-shot .22 but I have actually seen images of soldiers posing with these. It would definitely make a good pocket pistol, as it is super concealable. Mechanical function is fine and there are no detractions to speak of. It displays great ! Best of all, it is NOW $50 Off ! Give it a look. The link at left goes to Firearms !
