Does anybody remember the name of the company (I think in TX) that made a replica of the Sharps Pepperbox. I have always thought that that was one of the neatest little guns after seeing it in the series Yancy Deringer. I think he had about 20 of the things on him at any given time. The Indian just had the double barrel sawed off 10Ga under his blanket.:bigsmyl2:

You're probably thinking about the HJS Frontier Four Derringer (http://unblinkingeye.com/Guns/HJS/hjs.html) made by HJS Industries of Brownsville, TX.

I think that HJS also made a couple of other 4 shot derringer models and there was also another Sharps Pepperbox reproduction that was made for Browning by Miroku of Japan.

Thanks Doug, for some reason I have this yearning to own one of these things.
