How about an internet "gun game"?
« on: December 03, 2022, 12:50:04 PM »
  Game is look through the net and find a photo of a famous handgun (s).

  I'll start the game out..  Gen George S. Patton's revolvers.  We have heard of his Colt .45, but few know he had a .357 magnum also.  I saw both years ago..when the Patton Tank Museum was located at Ft Knox.

  A news reporter once asked about Patton's pearl handled revolver..  Here is Gen Patton's reply.

     Patton: "They're ivory. Only a pimp from a cheap New Orleans whorehouse would carry a pearl-handled pistol."

The 357 was his killing gun.

99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.

A boxed set of dueling pistols owned by Thomas Jefferson, if the link works.

Great choice, Ulav8r..
     I had to use the gray slide bar at the bottom of the page, but it gives us a good, closeup look at the guns.  Thomas Dealtry was a London gun maker.
