My neighbor gave this capper to me for Christmas. John insisted I open it now as he is headed back East for the holiday. He made it in 1978.

That’s really nice!  And it’s nice it went to someone that can appreciate it.

That is a really nice piece to get for Christmas. I had one that came with an old percussion Colt, not so pretty as yours, Joe. 
Merry Christmas to all of you. You make my days better all year long.

Are you going to bring it to the January Saturday Schuetzen and Sunday muzzleloader matches in Butte?
