And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Now THATS a rifle ! Octagonal barrel (possibly a take-down ?), the 1886 Winchester was a classic lever gun. I wonder if the artisan that detailed it is still alive, that is a large amount of meticulous work.
I've become a fan of straight walled cartridges. No incipient head separation. Fewer feeding problems less worry about bullet alignment. And a large wound channel. I love my. 375 Winchester, and should I ever think that's not enough, the. 458 win. Mag will fill in the gaps! Try one, the new. 350 Winchester sounds like a winner!
