This Sheriff named "Skeeter" didn't happen to be from Texas, did he? There was such a man nick-named "Skeeter" who was a well-known pistol advocate and shooter.
If so, both he and his son were fairly famous gun-writers as well. I don't recall their last name just now... the passing years have a way of "stealing" things like that, but the son was fairly well-known some 20 or 30 years ago.
In fact, his son had a monthly column in Guns & Ammo Magazine for quite-a-while some years back.
I mention this because I'd never heard of a man named "Skeeter" until I read his son's column in Guns & Ammo Magazine. As I recall, "Skeeter" was a Texas Ranger and well-known and respected for his knowledge and ability with large caliber hand-guns... and was quite a rugged individual.
