Richard Strom has been collecting Cap Guns for a
long time, but focuses mostly on Nichols Cap Guns. |

Above we see two different styles of the same
basic holster motif. The first one is a single (for righthanded kids) and the
second is a double (for ambidextrous kids like me). Notice the badges on the
holster pockets. And...you had plenty of extra ammo in case the shootout got
rough.
Maybe if you had your shirt
untucked, you would require a "Concealed Handgun License" for this Cap Gun
arrangement. This must be a rare box and poster.
This set reminds me of the sets that Uncle Talley
gave my couson John Yocom and me for Christmas one year. Except that our guns
were Stallion 41-40's. I wish I had them back, but I did what every other kid
would do. I played with them until they were worn out.
This is a Nichols-Kusan gold plated Stallion 45.
It's a late model for sure because you will note that it has the medallion
"built" into the grips.
Here is the other side of
this Cap Gun. I can't see whether or not the bullets are the "built-in" type or
actually come out.
Ahhhhhhhhh.............Now I
see! The bullets are of the built-in variety. The other variety with the
ejectable bullets is actually more valuable, but it probably evens out since
this one is gold plated.
Here's a pair of 38's with a
set of spurs. They are from the Kusan days.
Most of you didn't know that Nichols also dabbled
in metal cars and trucks. In my opinion, a waste of good talent. Besides, there
were other brands that were of higher quality. I personally have never owned
one. Probably never will. But they are real collectors items!
More Nichols cars. I didn't even know until
recently that Nichols made cars.
Nichols fire engines. How
come nobody told me?
More trucks.
This certainly certifies that Nichols made
them.
