Outlaws & Presidents: Natalie’s look at famous Smith & Wessons

Natalie Foster from Girls Guide to Guns at the NRA National Firearms Museum offices with Charter Arms serial number 1

Fairfax, Virginia – When Girls Guide to Guns CEO Natalie Foster swung by NRA Headquarters last month, we thought she might appreciate more of a ‘behind the scenes’ look at the building. One of her favorite stops was inside the National Firearms Museum offices. That’s where she experience a first hand look at two very special guns.

First was Jesse James’ Schofield model Smith & Wesson. After Natalie gushed over Jesse, we brought out Teddy.

President Theodore Roosevelt, to be accurate.

“He was my childhood hero,” said Supica.

The safety hammerless Smith & Wesson Roosevelt offered to a prominent family related to Spanish royalty during his trip down the River of Doubt.

Oh, and a quick thanks to Natalie for allowing us to share her video of the experience here on NRAblog.
