Mark St. Amand loads a reproduction 1861 Colt Navy black powder pistol at the Franklin County League of Sportsmen Club in East Deerfield. His weapons and others like them will be on display Sunday at the Cap and Ball Revolver Shoot.
GREENFIELD -- Mark St. Amand is a longtime fan of historic weapons, particularly of black powder pistols like the 1848 Colt Dragoon. He has in his collection guns that resemble those used by cavalrymen and officers in the Civil War and by cowboys in the old West.
St. Amand's weapons and others like them will be on display Sunday at the Cap and Ball Revolver Shoot being held by the Deerfield Education and Conservation Corp. at the Franklin County League of Sportsmen's Club, 721 River Road in East Deerfield.
The event is free and open to the public.
