Winfield M1876 Centennial Shorty Silencer
WINFIELD M1876 CENTENNIAL SHORTY SILENCER. (See also, WINFIELD, RIFLES) Once the rifle is reduced in size, a suppressor attachment makes the Winfield M1876 both dynamic and quiet. It's well suited for hunting multiple creatures in a small area with speed and subtlety, but requires some deft handling.

We're out of food. In case I die, tell my sister Jo Barnes that I'm sorry. I never thought I was until I stared death in the face with a parched throat and empty stomach. Wish I at least knew what I was dying for.
By way of explanation, I work for William Carter's gun show. On my third performance, two ruffians who knew Carter came charging in with guns blazing and we all ran for cover. Didn't see my shooting partner, but Will says that if he ain't here, he's dead. Frankly, death in exchange for not being in this metal box is getting more tempting with each breath. Not sure what Will had this box for, but there was a couple Centennial rifles and a skeleton inside, so I'm too scared to ask. Took the rifle, of course
Not sure what we're waiting for. It seems like we'd stand a good chance in a fight: three of us against two of them. But Will said he'd shoot me if I so much as talked, even attached a silencer to his rifle so that he could do it without giving away his location.
I'm near out of the ink I had tucked away. I want to know what these two were so angry about that they'd wait us out for two whole nights. We heard them patrolling above us just an hour or three ago.

Will says to get ready to sneak out all quiet-like and see if we can catch them by surprise. That being said, I take back my apology, Jo, you thieving sack of cattle shit.
