One of my all time favorite old west photos.A great picture of three cattle rustlers who roved New Mexico in the 1870's indulge in a ritual favered by many gunfighters. Sitting for a formal studio portrait with weapons in open.

I think those are the Richards Transition Model 1860 Colts if I'm not mistaken.

A work in progress.
