Re: Chapter 4: Storm Clouds Rising
In reply to Katy Devon (msg #38):
The shopkeep raises an eyebrow at her obvious knowledge of firearms. "Well, ain't you full of surprises, miss? Alright. I think I have a few pistols that might suit your fancy." He moves over to a display case as she picks out clothing. The selections aren't fancy, but they get the job done. While she selects, the shopkeep pulls out pistols from the case, naming them as he goes along.
"Here we have the famous Colt Peacemaker, single action...a Smith & Wesson Model 3 Schofield, also single action...Remington Model 1876, single action...Star & Barr Alamo, double-action, if you're feeling patriotic...but if you're going to go the patriot route, then I recommend this, the LeMat Grapeshot Revolver, Model 1877. Single action, but it holds 9 .44 caliber shots instead of your standard six, and has this lower barrel here that holds a 16-gauge shotgun shell in case of emergencies. And it's made right here in the CSA...none of that Union crap here, this is the real deal. A fine firearm, and it can be yours, little lady, if the price is right."
[[OOC: I'm picturing the scene in The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly with Tuco shopping for a new gun...anyone else getting that image?]]
