Lt. Gen. Ridgley Gaither's Colt Model 1908 Pocket Hammerless Pistol

From 2014-2018, I was the Firearms Specialist for the NRA Museums. This was filmed while I worked in that capacity.


From the NRA National Firearms Museum in Fairfax, Virginia, Firearms Specialist Logan Metesh examines a Colt 1908 Pocket Hammerless, a common gun issued to Lieutenant General Ridgely Gaither used to subdue the enemy and silence a 20mm gun during World War II. Originally aired on the Sportsman Channel 06/01/15.
