I'm currently deployed to Afghanistan and I'm trying to come up with a nice BP pistol to commemorate our deployment for Soldiers to buy if they want one. I'm thinking a model 1848 Dragoon would be fitting since were a Cavalry unit (5-1 CAV and 1st Cavalry Regiment is known as the 1st Regiment of Dragoons) I would like to find a pistol and accessory set in a wooded box that we could have some engraving done on. I'm willing to out sourse the engraving and box if need be but it would be better if I can find somewhere that does it all. Does any one know of a good place to look for something like this? The cost needs to be on the lower side so Soldiers can afford them and the engraving will naturally cost extra as well. What brands would be good quality at a lower price? Thanks, Mike
Here you go.. From an old vet let me say thank you. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Sho...=SBC;MMcat104792580;cat104701680;cat104503680
And then there is this from Dixie Gun Works... http://www.dixiegunworks.com/product_info.php?products_id=16018 Probably not extremely fancy but not too bad. And I too would like to thank you and your comrades for your service
Thanks, Thats exactly what I'm looking for.I speak for all of us here when I say there's no need to thank us for what we do but you're welcome all the same. Mike
I would suggest that you call Dixie. They might be willing/able to arrange for engraving, a plate on box, or some such.
