    Honestly one of the most severely underrated westerns ever made, and a personal favorite of mine. I've watched it many times, it's that good. Tom Selleck, and Alan Rickman were awesome in that movie

    My brother and I named our family mini Australian shepherd “Quigley” when we adopted him and were both about to leave for college to help fill our moms empty nest syndrome. He passed away today at almost 16 years old. Best brother a man could have. Our pup Quigley definitely lived a good life after his namesake. Going to miss you forever bud.❤

    While the movie seemingly took some "liberties" with regards to the accuracy of the Sharps rifle, I have a 45-110 Shiloh Sharps Quigley (Movie gun maker) and can say they will indeed shoot 1 MOA at 200 and in the right hands with he right load knowledge, as well at ranges far past that.
    If anyone is bored with the "black gun cult" and wants a challenge. Take up long range black powder shooting. It will make you relearn everything you thought you knew about ballistics, history and movies.

    The music fits the movie perfectly. Take the music away you loose a lot of the dramatic effect .
