Salvador Vargas of Chihuahua, Mexico, looks at a Winchester rifle, reportedly once owned by the Kid, during a stop at the Billy the Kid Museum in Fort Sumner. According to the museum, 25,000 people tour the collections here each year. (Mike Sandoval/For the Albuquerque Journal) FORT SUMNER – Did Billy have a gun? July 14 marked the 140th anniversary of the night Lincoln County Sheriff Pat Garrett killed outlaw Billy the Kid in a darkened room of a house in Old Fort Sumner, New Mexico. That’s a fact.
