Roosevelt's Guns

I just listened to an excellent Dan Carlin podcast that talked a lot about Teddy Roosevelt. Very interesting man, he packed a lot into 60 years. Here are some of the guns he owned in his lifetime.

This pistol was recovered from the USS Maine, sunk in Havana harbor, he carried it up San Juan Hill.

Kept this one on his nightstand at the White House.

Colt M1902 Stocked Semi

An AH Fox bird gun.

Winchester 1894 with suppressor he used to kill varmits. Suppressed so he wouldn't bother the DuPont and Tiffany families that lived nearby.

An 1886 Winchester rifle known as the tennis match gun because he used winnings from a tennis match to purchase the gun.
