"BadBob" Meldrum SA

[Hair Trigger Jim]

Yeah, and the engraving pattern doesn't appear to be quite the same.  I do like both Meldrum versions, the old and the new.

Definitely a nice pistol.  I like pearls, too, have it on a pair of Colts and a Thunderer which I intend to have engraved.

My question is for Abilene, 
  In his quest Missourijack said, he spoke to Charlie Hanson @ EMF.

In 2007, I met a Charlie Hanson (IIRC) in the Cimarron Booth, at the Orlando Fl Shot Show.
I had on order a then new offering Uberti's 2nd model Richards thru Cimarron. I spoke to
  Charlie Hanson there.
So, coincidence ? or has Charlie Hanson move on to Pietta and EMF ? (Not outside the realm of happenstance I suppose)
Or, is my memory rusty also Not outside the realm of happenstance.

 just curious 

By the way, V. nice gun and interesting thread, Missourijack..thanks for posting

Hi Major, you are thinking of Charles Hudson.  Close but no ceegar.     

[Major 2]

Then my mind is still a steel trap !

   somewhat sprung and a tad rusty, non the less still harbors
lots of trivia.
Some of which is tainted.

Thanks

I remember "Bad Bob" from the Roy Bean film and Stacy Keach's hilarious performance as the character. Not the historic Bob,but I wonder if his moniker was inspired by him. His name was Bob. And he was Bad

Bad Bob: [shoots a horse] Cook him for me. Smother him in onions.
[he bites into a raw onion, then drinks hot coffee straight from the pot]
Nick the Grub (Jackson gang: How do you want your horse?
Bad Bob: Blue.  (From IMDB.com)

Sometimes I do the Bad Bob hands shimmy before saying the starting line.
