Cant believe i missed this when it came out. Thank you for sharing these with us.

That was the "Dallas Kid", not the "Texas Kid." Read the newspaper article at 6:48.

Good eye. We also saw both names mentioned in sources, but ultimately went with "Texas Kid" because that's how Sweeten wrote about him in the included first-hand writings.

Fistfights, Gun fights, Hell, This was one badass dude!🤠

Excellent collection, I’ve read stories about this sheriff.

[@paleoph6168]

Those .44 Hand Ejectors are sweet!

[@pierrejohnson6264]

Excellent presentation. A true character to study.

[@johndilday1846]

Fabulous.

Back when justice carried a gun, and used it.

Trinidad Texas made him.

He must have been a Freemason as well! Those two Colt 1911 NM pistols have custom grips with Shriner and Scottish Rite masonic symbols on them!

It only takes a few years of being around some of these Texas guys to be able to smell the Texas sized load of bs that strongly resembles these stories. Texas men sure can tell some whoppers 😂😂

[@TheRKFord]

It’s not BS when it’s documented though.

I have seen these pistols many times, they were on display in the lobby of the Palestine Texas PD station for years. He didn't mention the muzzle of one of the .44s is damaged from him enlarging a windshield bullet hole with it to shoot the Dallas Kid through.
