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.
I've never handled a Colt Bisley, but I just don't think you can beat a Ruger Bisley grip frame for comfort and function. If you ever get a chance to fire one do it. I think you'll see what I mean.
BTW, I wonder if that's one of Elmer Keith's guns. It's not his famous No. 5 revolver but it might have been another in his collection.
I'll say. It's one of the most Bisley-engraved revolvers I've seen in a long time.
ReplyDeleteJudging by the Mexican national symbol on the grips, I'd say it's El Bisley.
