I like to watch the movies and look up the actors, was watching an Audie Murphy and there was an old man in it who was born in 1879. Heck my grandpa was born in 1880. Was that Audiei Murphy movie, Tumbleweed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't tell me it's 1868 and you're packin a saa M1873... And why are there so many Italians type cast as N/A's? Please don't tie your horse up with a rein.... See what I mean? Was watching an episode of Big Valley once and some dude was carrying a side ejection Marlin 336, which didn't come into existence until the 1940s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lots of actors today still making movies at that age & more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most TV Westerns took a lot of creative license, most consumers just wanted drama with horses and cowboys. A recent Laramie episode had prison guards in 1881 carrying Krags. Always amazes me to see a cowboy make camp. He's only got light saddle bags, no pack animal... But he'll always have a coffee pot, frying pan, cans of food, spirits, etc. Sometimes he'd even whip out a coffee grinder for fresh roast. Nothing for the horse.

I just thought it was cool that I’m watching a movie with a guy who grew up along side civil war vets and was also not long outside of the 1872 winter campaign against the apaches. But you always got something to say to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
