I have a new grail gun,,,
But I don't think it will be easy to find.
It was a nice day today so I went to the range,,,
I was shooting away and a gentleman set up next to me.
He pulled a wooden case out of a cloth bag,,,
Inside it was a pair of dueling pistols,,,
Or so I thought.
I had heard about these and seen pictures,,,
But this is the first one I have seen up close and personal.
Remington Rolling Block pistol made by Uberti.
And this man had a boxed pair of them.
We need a jealousy smiley face.
His were chambered in .357 Magnum,,,
I Googled them and found they were also chambered in .22 LR, 22 Magnum, and 22 Hornet.
He kindly allowed me to fire a few rounds,,,
I shot 3 rounds of .357 and 3 rounds of .38 Special.
They were heavy but easy to aim,,,
Even with the .357 rounds the recoil was not bad at all.
The pistols were absolutely beautiful,,,
Especially in the presentation case he had for them.
I remember reading about these several years back,,,
I made a half-hearted attempt at finding one,,,
But they were long discontinued,,,
So I shelved the search.
I asked him if he would be interested in selling them,,,
But they were part of his father's collection.
I need these guns like I need a hole in the head,,,
But having actually fired one I am now lusting heavily.
It never ends,,,
There is always,,,
Just one more gun.
Trouble is,,,
I would want a pair.
