![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) Richard Strom has been collecting Cap Guns for a
long time, but focuses mostly on Nichols Cap Guns. |

![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) 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.

![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) 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.

![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) 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.

![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) 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.

![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) 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.
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif)
![](19.jpg)
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) 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.

![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) Here's a pair of 38's with a
set of spurs. They are from the Kusan days.

![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) 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!
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif)
![](44.jpg)
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) More Nichols cars. I didn't even know until
recently that Nichols made cars.
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif)
![](45.jpg)
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) Nichols fire engines. How
come nobody told me?
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif)
![](48.jpg)
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) More trucks.
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif)
![](46.jpg)
![](../graphics/clr_dot.gif) This certainly certifies that Nichols made
them.
