Would you like a copy of the radio broadcast from
February 12th & 19th 2005 from the 1030 -110 BBC Radio Four in the United Kingdom?

Chuck and Arnold Palmer were good friends, so it was not surprising when Chuck gave Arnold Palmer a rifle from the TV Series " The Rifleman "  See where one of the original rifle is today.  Do you know how many rifles there were?  Was it 2 or 3 or more original rifles?   Anybody who might have any information on any of the original rifles or a story to share - Please feel free to contact
