Packin' Padre

Fr. Erik Richtsteig of Orthometer shows off his newly acquired Springfield Model 1861 repilca. Nice, albeit a Yankee rifle (for standard CSA issue, see 1853 Enfield). Nice duds, too, Father.

You'll have to head over to Fr. Richtsteig's blog to see the other photo, which will have the gun-grabbers peeing themselves.


UPDATE (27 August)
Fr. Richtsteig is sponsoring a caption contest for the photo above. First prize is a Mass offered for your intention. Have at it.
