I found this story while going through the backlog of entries over at Grinding.be. Apparently James Madison and James Monroe were passing around Space pistols back in the beginning eras of the United States.
"Given pride of place in an unassuming museum on the East Coast of America is a pair of 200-year-old duelling pistols shrouded in mystery.
The intricately decorated guns were said to have been forged from the iron of a fallen meteorite.
Over time, they passed into the hands of Madison's successor - James Monroe - and are now on display at a museum dedicated to him."
Of course the reason this story has come up, is if you continue reading the above article, you find out that the idea that they are crafted from fallen meteorite has supposedly been debunked. Or at least the notion that these particular pistols were. The article also mentions that the design on it isn't even silver, it's aluminum. Very cheap for a gift between Heads of State like this.
It just doesn't add up why the Argentine president would gloss so glowingly on these pistols, and then have them end up as functioning cheap pistols. No. The only logical answer is that these are not the pistols that were given to Madison and later passed on to Monroe. These are replicas that were made while the pistols were put into real actual use. I wouldn't be shocked if the pistols are still in possession of whoever Monroe later enlisted to help acquire Florida. And you will see why later on.To cast further doubt on this case, the name of the Machine that they used to show the Pistols the museum has in it's possession as fakes, is Isis.
Isis:
"Isis is a goddess in Ancient Egyptian mythology and is celebrated as the ideal mother and wife, patron of nature and magic; friend of slaves, sinners, artisans, the downtrodden, as well as listening to the prayers of the wealthy, the maiden, the aristocrat and emperor.[1]"
Bold added for emphasis. I highly doubt it's a coincidence that Isis has become associated with these Pistols. Particularly given that she is occasionally in league with Emperor's(Presidents).
Now look at this:
"James Monroe (April 28, 1758 – July 4, 1831) was the fifth President of the United States (1817-1825). His administration was marked by the acquisition of Florida (1819)"
Of course that begs the question...what do Egyptian Space Pistols have to do with acquiring Florida?
70 years Later this washed up on Florida shores:
"The St. Augustine Monster is the name given to a large unidentified carcass, originally postulated to be the remains of a gigantic octopus, that washed ashore on the United States coast near St. Augustine, Florida, in 1896."
Was James Monroe fighting Cthulhu?

Thanks for writing this.
Very interesting. Incidentally, aluminum was a rare and valuable metal in the early 19th Century (the Washington Monument is capped with it); in fact, at the time it was more considered more valuable than silver. If the pistols are decorated with aluminum rather than silver, than they were a valuable gift indeed.
