    I live in an open carry state if, or when I'm carrying which happens to be rare when not on my property, unless I must make a trip to questionable areas of a larger city, you'll know it.

    The tube on the guy's back appears to be the US variant of the Swedish AT4, a single-use and disposable anti-tank weapon. It's been used. He's carrying around a doorstop.
    I've put the giant revolver on the list of things that would be a heck of a lot of fun to make.

    The guy doesn't even l know how to wear those Jackass holsters, Yeah. that tube is just for show, unless he has something broken down inside of it.
    That giant revolver is cool though

    In all seriousness though (I have no idea if those previous two pics were of Texans), these clips from the 2019 church shooting in Tarrant County are probably the best example of the benefits of Texas carry laws.

    We'll I hope no one is watching me walk. They would think I have several guns on me. My right foot does not feel good. Sometimes my back is out of wack. I will not list the rest of the issues. At various times, depending on what I have been working on, I walk like all of those mentioned.

    So you are never sure if I am carrying ... or not. In addition that.....Name:  Old People.png

    Not throwing wet towel on anyone's project; building a revolver on that scale would involve some even bigger tooling and fixtures. And that's pattern of 1858 Remington, fired by percussion cap over loose black powder, of round ball or conical bullet in .45 caliber.
    Worn out tonight, resisting urge to calculate bore diameter of the model. Certainly more than a big orange.
    Sincerely,
