When I was 19-20 I had a friend who was an old Montana cowboy. In winter, he always wore a red mackinaw cap with earflaps and a red yarn ball on top. I asked him why he didn't wear a cowboy hat and he says "Hell boy, that's summer gear. Seen too many frostbit ears under them things!"

Bud had an old birdshead 455 that had been cut for ACP's, a bullet mould and an ancient reloading press. His loads weren't hot but they shot right to that old Webley's sights and some of the best sixgun fun I ever had was helping that old gent burn them up. I have wanted wanted one ever since.
