Christmas Present -- Found my lost 2nd Gen Peacemaker!
Folks:
While digging through the detritus in a spare bedroom, found many things -- most of which I did not need. Discovered a bunch of empty gun rugs, except for one that seemed rather heavy.
In it was a .357 2nd Generation Peacemaker, 5 1/2 inch barrel. I remember picking it up from the gunsmith (SASS shootist Big Whiskey) several months ago after he fixed what a Big Name Gunsmith had done to it. Its partner is a 2nd Gen .38 Special, same barrel length. Both have checkered faux ivory Colt grips.
When I start shooting cowboy style again next year, it will be at my side.
Happy Holidays,
Scribe

that I had hurriedly hidden in a "safe place" for more than 6 months. Also, I thought I'd lost a USFA single-action but it was hidden in the dark corner of the safe the whole time!

Nope, you have good company
I have "lost" more than one gun over the years, only to find it in a gun rug in some corner of the safe or some other place.

I've found a few small handguns in the late fall, early winter. I'll pull a heavy coat from the closet I haven't worn in awhile an d will find some sort of small auto mor more likely a J frame hiding in a pocket! Better than finding a $5 bill in a clean pair of pants!
Lost a Desert Eagle .41 Mag once. NM
