Slow news day, Micky? So did you read the article 3 years ago? Or did you have to wait until I posted it? Yes, I did read it back then. IIRC it was talked about here. I don't believe they can prove who bought or owned the rifle. Last I saw it was or was going to be displayed at the park service center. |

I read it when it first appeared. -- Web based forums are like subscribing to 10 different newspapers and having to visit 10 different news stands to pickup each one. Email list-server groups and USENET are like having all of those newspapers delivered to your door every morning. |

The lady park ranger that stumbled upon it while in the field (desert), working for meager wages, and the fact that the rifle is older that the state of Nevada (1864 -- Lincoln wanted the electoral votes :-) ) There was a interview video of the park ranger. She was proud of what happened. Hell, I'd be proud, too |
