I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

I should have snatched the one similar to that I found for $150...
Not nearly as pretty, and maybe not the same model, but beside the engraving, it looked like the same model. It was VERY rough though. Lots of rust, very minor surface rust, but it covered an easy 60%, and the cylinder was loose.

I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillement of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause, and lies exhausted on the field of battle... Victorious.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
