Join us for a presentation & refreshments with Chuck Truitt on Famous Guns of the Old West.
The 19th Century was the beginning of the United States connecting two oceans within one continent. This expansion West was the beginning of a journey into a frontier that was occupied by indigenous peoples for thousands of years. The early pioneers faced the natural elements, dangerous animals, sickness, seemingly unpassable landscape, and the fierce resistance of the natives.
The early European guns brought West provided initial protection, but the iconic 19th Century American firearms provided a moderate leveling of the West. For a few dollars, anyone could protect themselves with lethal effort.
To hold in your hand a piece of the Wild West history is iconic and an awesome feeling. Therefore, enjoy and take in this brief presentation of the “Famous Guns of the Old West” and feel for yourself the iconic moment of an 1800’s pioneer venture.
