Nickname?

When I was just a yonker my dad's sister, my Aunt Dorothy, was called Dot by all her relatives and friends, us kids had to call the adults by proper names so she was always Aunt dorothy to me. Chris

I'm sorry Hopalong...

Mr. Taffin gave us a clue in his response, but I've yet to reaserch it. Hate to admit that I have no I-dear.

Dot Taffin

Dot Taffin, John Taffin's wife, I think he calls her Diamond Dot. There are several pictures of her in the book Sixguns and probably more in other books. Unless I'm off base he was indicating her name is spelled with a capital D not a small d and he was reprimanding us all for not reading "Guns" and "American Handgunner" more often. By the way I think it was John Taffins birthday today, Happy Birthday Mr. Taffin. If I'm wrong on either answer  please forgive my mistake. Chris

Sounds like...

...Diamond Dot confiscated a Tactical Solutions .22 from Mr. Taffin, nothing about Marlin rifles. Sorry if we are not much help, Hopalong.  Not trying to be flippant.

Diamond Dot

   I've been reading John Taffins stuff for years at least his Guns and Handgunner writings. He has a way of making the reader feel like they are part of his world and I can tell you that Diamond Dot is a BIG part of his world! I have a great and supportive wife but I sure wish she could spend a little time with Diamond Dot!
