Ronnies111, I was 8 or 9 at the time and I didn't know who he was. I was just a fan of westerns (still am) and my grandpa thought it would be cool to take me. I had his autograph for a long time but haven't seen it in years.

It's cool that some people as us remember those who laid the fondation of pistol sports. Without them the sport whold not be where it is today
