To: The Duke
His "gun rig" was sold recently

Cartridge belt and holster

He carried a .38 in movies in 5½" I believe.

I favor my Colt circa 1898 7½" 44-40 with an ultra-rare Colt circa 1876 nickle-plated brass quick detachable skeleton shoulder stock.

A museum item, but BATF "antique legal" and a real attention grabber at the firing ranges.

Great for deer.

Good "Duke" audio .wav for you: http://www.mamarocks.com/whyiloveher.wav

http://www.mamarocks.com/whyiloveher.wav

Duke narrates "America, Why I Love Her" to the BG music of an orchestra performing "America the Beautiful"

Good for email:

<EMBED SRC="http://www.mamarocks.com/whyiloveher.wav" SAFEHTML AUTOSTART="true" HIDDEN="true" VOLUME="100" LOOP="30" AUTOLOAD="faster"><NOEMBED> <BGSOUND SRC="http://www.mamarocks.com/whyiloveher.wav"></NOEMBED>

Using both the "EMBED" & "BGSOUND" for BG sound somehow helps the music load faster and also work well on Netscape and AOL programs.

Also putting it also at the very beginning AND the end of emails and webpages also helps the entire page load quicker; my more advanced code friends cannot explain why, but who cares.

I use this on one of my WebSites and often on my emails.

Sound quality could be better, but I have not found this version anywhere that is exactly the same yet.



FILL YOUR HANDS YOU SOB!

Gotta Ride!

I was told it was a 38-40. Until a year ago, I thought the 38-40 had the traditional Caliber-Blackpowder load. Not so. It's the only cartridge that had reversed the numbers. A 38-40 is a blackpowder load of 38 grains[or the modern equivalent] with a .40 caliber bullet.

Here's one of my favorites from the Duke. "Laugh In" had a segment where Henry Gibson would come on stage and deliver a short funny poem while holding a large flower. He would start with "A poem. By Henry Gibson." One show they did the same set up, only the Duke came out. I think he even had the large flower. He then recited this;
