Larry Wilson

Some sad, bad news about Larry Wilson, the expert on rare 19th century Colts and the author of the beautiful books on them and other rare pieces. The article reports he was sentenced to a year in jail for defrauding a client, and word of some shakey appraisals is sending shockwaves thru the collector community. (The very high end collector community, where a gun's price may be in 6 digits).
