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.
Well Gorges, you could always pick up an old one for a good price. There are a lot of them available that are in great condition for not a ton of money. Not the one in the picture, though. That looks like a Smith & Wesson Safety Hammerless 4th model. I'm thinking one like that would sell for over $1000 to a collector. You could probably pick up a Hopkins & Allen Safety Police for about $200. I got one from a guy at work who was going to take it to a "buy back" program for $50. Check out Gunbroker.com.....
I wish they still made affordable break-opens.
