I was able pick up a couple of Ranger 1's today!

OV told me to buy these when Uncle_Lee said he was "thinning the herd"

I want to thank Uncle_Lee for the opportunity to care for his "girls"

There are some others but I thought these 2 need their own post!  ;)

Congratulations to you. You have a real treasure there. Now we need to see some holsters that are worthy of them ...  8)

   Your a good man there Rick , I just know Unc has some regrets but as they say you can't take them with you , I'm going to try to the best of my ability . Ha ,Ha .  They are certainly beautiful pieces , I consider the best of NAA can do with revolvers . Now you need a coming out party . ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
TO ARMS , TO ARMS the liberal socialists are coming . Load and prime your weapons . Don't shoot till you see their UN patches or the Obama bumper stickers , literally . And shoot any politician that says he wants to help you or us .

You are VERY welcome.
Fondle them so  they will be happy.
Keep them close together. They get lonesome if you don't. :)

Thanks OV,  I blamed you when I came through the door yesterday with 8 NAA boxes in my arms! Actually, I'm married to a saint of a woman... she doesn't even take a second look when I come home with new guns!
I show them to her and I'll get "oh thats pretty" or "who do you plan on killing with that?" lol!!
She did like the Ranger 1's  :)
Hey! Be careful with who you tell to have a "coming out party"! You never know what you might get!  I am from California! lol!!   ;)

Congrats Rick! Those are some fine revolvers you got from Uncle Lee, they're like the "Holy Grail" of mini's.

That?s awesome Rick. I?m guessing if they belonged to uncle_lee that they may be sequential serial numbers?

  Rick a hundred years from now those two will bring many thousands of , maybe Bitcons by then ,greenbacks ,a true one of a kind set of limited productions , WOW !!! Whoever ends up with them I hope they realize just what they have ,better leave a note with them . Most people these days would only sell them for perhaps a few hundred buckaroos if not knowledgeable . Unc sure knew what he was ordering at the time . I want a long rifle cylinder made for my lonely one , I was told by someone at NAA they had one made for themselves ,gee I wonder who that might have been .Ha ,Ha . Home game advantages sorta . Ha,Ha .  ;) ;)

I?m wondering..Could Rick be stocking up on minis so he?ll have a new grand prize for his next contest! ;D

Thank you Rogue! I only wish I had the amount of knowledge about guns that Uncle_Lee has in one finger!

Now I'm saving shoe boxes!  ;)

I will make sure the linage is respected. Uncle_Lee sent a signed receipt with each gun  :)

lol! NAA would need to "step up" on a collaboration with me for that!  ;)  Imagine, a NAA/DGL engraved Mini and a custom Holster!
The Forum would "wake up" like it did when the Ranger II was announced! lol!! (maybe?)  ;)

Noted...  ;)  A "give away" like that would be a huge responsibility and I'm sure would make as many enemies as friends.

I think I'll stick to the small stuff! Things I can afford to give everyone  ;)

Smiles are free OV!   

You taunted me into buying so many guns!  If you ever decide to quit hoarding that material for grips and make it into something useable we might be able to do some horse trading! lol!!

  Theres a great thought Rick I know darn well I'll never get around to using all these pieces of beauty .(I'm real particular about what I hoard) Ha ,Ha .  Thickness is my rule of thumb just to give more options on what to make and how to shape them .Funny how much I have ,didn't realize till I sat back and starting looking these pieces over . I'm a nut I figure for thinking I was going to complete all I had in mind . Just like you making holsters though its great fun and rewarding when you finish a new piece , my problem is I can't get rid of anything I make , its a disease , maybe the virus ,Ha ,Ha ,Ha . Soon we'll talk . ;) ;)

Belated welcome to the Two Ranger One's  Owners Club. It's a very small and exclusive club. Club Motto-" So nice we bought it twice!"
It's too bad that our friends cant be here with us today

Thank You heyjoe!  ;)

I may look like an "owner" and have possession of them but... I always think they're Uncle_Lee's and I'm caring for them in perpetuity  ;)

But they will start showing up in photos!  ;D

Those Rangers are nice. I can see how one gets addicted to collecting these!
