Mr Egan said his display, matching his guns with those carried by the famous names of the Wild West, created a lot of interest at the show held at the weekend in Greerton Hall.
"Everyone has a bit of cowboy in them," he said
He was reluctant to go into detail about the value of the weapons, saying it depended on the market at the time and the condition of the firearms. However, all his guns were in working order.
The guns on display spanned the years 1851-1878 and included weapons gathered during his five trips to the US in which he went to all the Colt shows and visited historic battle sites such as Little Big Horn where General Custer fought his last battle and The Alamo. Mr Egan said he found visiting Little Big Horn moving.
His trips included staying with friends in Kansas and helping them out on the farm, along with visits to famous towns such as Tombstone.
