Was in Franklinton last weekend for my uncles funeral. He seved for three presidents and left some petty cool heirlooms to my cousin. Thought I would share here. And now, for your viewing pleasure.

His service pistol. USP in .357 Sig


His fun gun. A vaquero in .45


Retirement gift #1
A Colt Mark IV 1911. The other side is engraved with his name. Couple of folders


Retirement gift #2. Apparently, this is his original USSS service pistol from when he was assigned to Bush Sr. Story unconfirmed. They engraved it with the USSS symbol and his name on the box.



A couple of long riffles. I forget the make and model because I was too busy practicing my quick draw with the Vaquero.

Lots of stories went to the grave I’m sure. Cool collection for your relative.

Those are very nice and well kept. I'd take any of them if they are looking for homes.

Care to give us your uncles Bio, stories?
Spinoff thread would be great.

Well, it was a bona fide "assault rifle" in 1863.
