Welcome home

For those who don't know, Burke and Wills are kinda like an aussie Lewis and Clark.

A pistol owned by one of Australia's most famous explorers and lost for 150 years has returned home to a small town in north-east Victoria.
The revolver belonging to Robert O'Hara Burke, famous for leading the ill-fated Burke and Wills expedition, was bought at an auction in Ireland last year by a tiny museum in Beechworth

This would have to be one of the most iconic firearms in Australia especially considering that it's history has be verified.
I'm pretty worried that it's insides are going to be mutilated though :(
