p.s.
I voluntarily surrendered the .41 to the Santa Fe Police department a few years later... young officer knocked at my door after my call, I had her all laid out chamber exposed as empty for him, bandolier, ammo, and nice box all nice and clean. He asked if I might rather sell her through the want ads. I replied, "No sir, I'd rather she did not ever appear again on these streets."
Asked for a receipt, and he gave me a hand-written one.
