It's really kind of hard to support your local hobby shop when the nearest hobby shop that's worth the name is a 150 mile roundtrip.

.44 British Bulldog pistol
The whole thing started when a lawyer named Charles Guiteau became incensed when his application to be the U. S. ambassador to France was denied
So after stalking the President, he finally shot him twice. However, Garfield did not die from the bullet wound as so much as he did from the doctors who treated him. He lived several months after with what turn out to be death by infection and blood poisoning.
Now back to model railroad.[^]

no confusion possible. 44 mag didn't show up until the mid 50s. The Winchester rifle was non-starter due to size and the 38 spl was 20th century inovation. Proces of elimination
