Longarm #401
Author: Tabor Evans
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 110156119X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 163
Book Description
Longarm tries a little moonlighting… As a personal favor, U.S. Deputy Marshal Custis Long arrives in Good Hope, Arizona, to help his boss’s old friend, a former Texas Ranger named Don Carter. But Carter is a proud, obstinate son of a gun, not likely to accept help—though he’s happy to give it, especially to the down-and-out. So Longarm poses as a drifter named Custis Short, who’s willing to work for food, and Carter takes him in. Longarm quickly learns that the former Texas Ranger has a gold claim—and even though local big shot Kyle Burgen already owns half the county, he wants Carter’s mine as well. When Burgen’s raiders come in the night with guns and torches, Longarm’s waiting to cut them down to size…

Firearms of the Texas Rangers
Author: Doug Dukes
Publisher: University of North Texas Press
ISBN: 157441819X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 645
Book Description
From their founding in the 1820s up to the modern age, the Texas Rangers have shown the ability to adapt and survive. Part of that survival depended on their use of firearms. The evolving technology of these weapons often determined the effectiveness of these early day Rangers. John Coffee “Jack” Hays and Samuel Walker would leave their mark on the Rangers by incorporating new technology which allowed them to alter tactics when confronting their adversaries. The Frontier Battalion was created at about the same time as the Colt Peacemaker and the Winchester 73—these were the guns that “won the West.” Firearms of the Texas Rangers, with more than 180 photographs, tells the history of the Texas Rangers primarily through the use of their firearms. Author Doug Dukes narrates famous episodes in Ranger history, including Jack Hays and the Paterson, the Walker Colt, the McCulloch Colt Revolver (smuggled through the Union blockade during the Civil War), and the Frontier Battalion and their use of the Colt Peacemaker and Winchester and Sharps carbines. Readers will delight in learning of Frank Hamer’s marksmanship with his Colt Single Action Army and his Remington, along with Captain J.W. McCormick and his two .45 Colt pistols, complete with photos. Whether it was a Ranger in 1844 with his Paterson on patrol for Indians north of San Antonio, or a Ranger in 2016 with his LaRue 7.62 rifle working the Rio Grande looking for smugglers and terrorists, the technology may have changed, but the gritty job of the Rangers has not.
