Here's mine. It was passed down through my father's family and finally given to me by my father.

My great grandfather picked it up from a dead Yankee after a battle during the Civil War. He fought with Co. B, 40th Georgia Inf.

It's all original except for the barrel wedge which I bought from a gun dealer in Los Angeles. The original ".44 Spec."
