First










Second










Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

Rob, you wouldn't know what to do with a plain gun. I thought about starting a tread " Post your most ornate gun". Then I realized I wouldn't stand a chance.
Very cool!   Thanks for posting these.     Jim
