I'm waiting to get a package from Purdy Gear in the next week. She's making me a fancy rig that will be forever known as the Dakota Doc rig on her website. I made some conchos from Mexican 5 Peso silver coins (30 grams of 90% silver) and she's putting them on the belt and the three holsters. It should be a fine and dandy looking outfit.

I like the engraving on the bowie knife. I am partial to that scroll with punch dot background. Nice job! I'd like to do something like that on the guard and bolsters. Maybe flower rosettes on the large rivets. I think the pins are too small to do anything with them.

For those of you that haven't been around Cowboy Action Shooting you are missing out on the most fun you can possibly have. I used to ride a stick horse and shoot Mattell Fanners when I was a kid. Now I get to shoot real Colt Peacemakers. It's a hoot!
