    Show us your Guns!

    Order a Milt Sparks now so it will be ready when you get the permit. Don't buy a mass manufactured holster, especially as a left hander, I can say that. Sparks will be a bit more, but they are made SOOOOOOO much better. They are superior in every way from the design to durability to...

    Showoff! Why hats / fedora make the difference

    Good for you Slim. I think you carry it well. All in all we should wear what we are comfortable with. Me personally, I wouldn't ever, ever wear a derby or a homburg. I wouldn't wear a tophat or a boater. I wouldn't wear a super stingy brimmed hat. Likewise I won't wear a real wide brimmed...
