I saw and photographed a REAL "One of the Thousand" in Lima Peru, at a museum. It was given to the President of Peru back in the day, and was just put in with a bunch of other junk guns in a glass case...

Here are two photos, SHOT THROUGH THE GLASS, AND, NO CAMERAS WERE ALLOWED IN THE MUSEUM, CAUSED A SECURITY GUY HASSLE, BUT I GOT THE SHOTS!!!

I decided to do a separate posting for these images so more folks can see one of these original "One of a Thousand" 1873s!!!
