EXCEPTIONAL THREE-GUN SET FROM LEGENDARY TEXAS RANGER JOAQUIN JACKSON

Description:
HERE IS A REMARKABLE AND HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT THREE-GUN SET, ACQUIRED DIRECTLY FROM FAMED TEXAS RANGER JOAQUIN JACKSON — ONE OF THE MOST CELEBRATED LAWMEN IN MODERN RANGER HISTORY. EACH FIREARM IN THIS COLLECTION CARRIES DIRECT PROVENANCE TO JACKSON AND REPRESENTS A PERSONAL FAVORITE FROM HIS STORIED CAREER.

THIS MODEL 94 CARBINE WAS CUSTOMIZED BY JACKSON HIMSELF FOR USE AS HIS SO-CALLED “CAR GUN.” COMPACT, RUGGED, AND INSTANTLY DEPLOYABLE, IT WAS CONFIGURED TO MEET THE DEMANDS OF FAST, CLOSE-QUARTERS RESPONSE BOTH IN AND OUT OF A VEHICLE — A TRUSTED COMPANION FOR A MAN WHO UNDERSTOOD THE VALUE OF READINESS.

AMONG JACKSON’S MOST FAVORED HANDGUNS, THE COLT LIGHTWEIGHT COMMANDER IN .45 ACP SERVED HIM IN BOTH UNIFORMED AND PLAINCLOTHES ASSIGNMENTS. WITH ITS BALANCE OF STOPPING POWER AND PORTABILITY, IT WAS A CONSTANT FIXTURE ON HIS HIP DURING YEARS OF FIELD WORK.

PERHAPS THE MOST PERSONAL OF THE THREE IS AN EARLY S-FRAME 4-INCH .44 MAGNUM, CARRIED IN A HANDMADE RIG BY RETIRED U.S. CUSTOMS AGENT TOM THREEPERSONS, CRAFTED BY EL PASO SADDLERY. THE RIG FEATURES TWENTY-FOUR CARTRIDGE LOOPS AND IS PAIRED WITH A BOHLIN STYLE SILVER RANGER BUCKLE SET AND S.D. MYERS HOLSTER. JACKSON OFTEN REMARKED THAT THE .44 MAGNUM WAS HIS CHOICE “WHEN HUNTING MEN FROM HORSEBACK,” THE 24-ROUND CAPACITY “ENOUGH TO KEEP A MAN IN BUSINESS, DEPENDING ON THE ODDS.”

PROVENANCE & DOCUMENTATION
THE ATTACHED PHOTOGRAPH PROVIDED BY CURRENT OWNER SHOWS JACKSON WEARING THIS EXACT RIG, CARRYING EITHER THIS WINCHESTER MODEL 94 OR ONE VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL. THE DIRECT CHAIN OF OWNERSHIP FROM JACKSON TO THE CURRENT CONSIGNOR ENSURES IRONCLAD PROVENANCE — A CRITICAL FACTOR FOR COLLECTORS OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND WESTERN HISTORY. REFRERENCE WILL BE PROVIDED UPON REQUEST.
