These are my "antiques", best priming tools I've used:

I remember when I saw those in a sporting goods store in Reno, NV. It was $12. My wife said we couldn't afford it at the time. This was in the early 1970s. Never forgot them. The next time we went to Reno, they were all gone.

Hmmm. What happened to my gold banner?

Hey Coots, you bought that at the super shoot didn't you?
He had a couple other items there to I think.

Hey Joe, how you all doing?

Actually I bought it from Jim Carmichael at his residence. We used to visit back and forth at the Supershoot at the end of the day. Couple drinks maybe.... He kept inviting me to stop by Tennessee on my way to Florida. Finally did, his house was awesome, mounts from 40 safaris to Africa, bought this from him. His gun safe was larger than Cabelas. He took me to visit Terry Leonard's shop while there. Damn. Well worth the trip. Jim's a great guy and was a Real shooter and writer. Probably the ONLY writer with HOF points in SR BR.

Memorable experience...great guy.
