1866. The Reno Brothers/Gang. I'm getting more mileage out of my Western outlaws and lawmen reference books than I thought I would.

Pffft, no chance here. I just saw a few episodes of "The Rifleman" earlier this year . . . for the first time ever.

However it was also an act of war committed against a military target so may not properly qualify as a train robbery per se. _________________ "I won't insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said." - William Buckley, Jr. "...steam, artillery and revolvers give to civilized man an irresistible power." -Perry Collins |

Well the story goes that Both Chuck and the Duke used Win model '92's.
This made the actor look bigger so Ill guess a '92 cartridge. D: 32-20. _________________ "Remove one freedom per generation and soon you will have no freedom and no one would have noticed."......Carl Marx "Let us Cross the river and sit in the shade of the trees" .....Stonewall Jackson T.
