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.
A labor of love. Was in local gun store yesterday and an older gentleman was picking up his Drilling that they had put a scope on..... Talked to the store owner and he said don't ask. He could not tell the customer no, he buys 2-3 guns a month on average there. At least it was not as detailed as this beauty.
That is a freakin' work of art! I am a better man for having seen it. TY brother.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that's even a patchbox, just an inlaid work of art.
ReplyDeleteJust the inlay (silver?) in the stock is worthy of being in a museum!
ReplyDeleteThe photography is top notch, too.
Even the tools used to make it are works of art.
ReplyDeleteNo words can do that justice...
