John Taffin

Milt Morrison says John is improving every time he visits him. He said that John is still using the walker but is getting around much better and that he has much more stamina than when I was there.

Last week Jason Cloessner, Bobby Tyler, Brian Pearce and Milt Morrison met with John and presented him with the Number 1 John Taffin Commemorative sixgun that Ruger is making for Lipseys. The first guns will be stainless ... the blued ones will be coming later. Serial Numbers begin with the initials "JT." It is my understanding they will come with a Barranti holster. The sixguns are in .45 Colt and come with a .45 ACP cylinder.

I will post it. The announcement should be in Lipsey's website. In fact, you might ask them if they are taking orders if you are interested.

I'm certainly glad I feel better than I look! I been getting away from the Walker and using the cane and my legs are getting stronger and stronger.

Wonderful!

John tells me that it is his understanding that the holster will cost extra and serial numbered to each individual sixgun.

Glad you’re on the mend, Mr Taffin.

That’s a good looking sixgun as well. I’ve always been a fan of the shorter and longer barrels on SA’s but that seems like a good one. I have a flat top 4t convertible in blued steel and I’ve kicked myself for not picking up a stainless one when they were more readily available. Look g forward to hearing about availability.
