Percussion Pistols and Revolvers: History, Performance and Practical UseIn the early transition from the long lived flintlock system, handgun development closely paralleled that of the long arms. With the advent of the revolving pistols, however; came patents that created monopolies in revolver production and the through bored cylinder necessary for self contained metallic cartridges. The caplock revolvers took on a separate evolution and remained state of the art long after the widespread appearance of cartridge firing
In the early transition from the long-lived flintlock system, handgun development closely paralleled that of the long arms. With the advent of the revolving pistols, however; came patents that created monopolies in revolver production and the through-bored cylinder necessary for self-contained metallic cartridges. The caplock revolvers took on a separate evolution and remained state of the art long after the widespread appearance of cartridge firing rifles and shotguns. They rode in the holsters of of explorers and adventurers across the world and granted safe conduct in the back-alleys of the Industrial West right up until the last quarter of the 19th Century. Handguns possess a mystique distinctly different from that of other firearms. They are tools of personal empowerment-chosen by their owners to provide independence and freedom of movement. In the ambitious, optimistic early years of western industrial civilization they were the emblem of liberty and equality and the bane of repressive governments and social movements. Largely because of the traditions that emerged in the time of the caplock pistols and revolvers, they remain so in the early years of the 21st Century.Binding Type: Hardcover

Nice price and good quality
Size: Large, Color: P1553-navy
I really like the zipper feature on this shirt. It looks sharp on, and is sized accurately. The fabric is comfortable and wrinkle resistant. It is nicely priced for the quality of the shirt. I was well pleased with it.

Perfect for Business Casual
Size: X-Large, Color: P1553-purple
The shirt was a huge hit at my husband’s job. Perfect color in the logo for the company. He immediately asked me where I ordered the shirt from. I suspect his colleagues will be ordering as well.
Shirt quality and comfort are ideal in our July Tennessee weather. He loved the overall fit since it was perfect for his broad shoulders.

Nice shirts
Size: Medium, Color: P1553-blue Green
I've bought a number of these shirts and overall like them a lot. They fit well, look sharp and wear well through many washings. As a tall guy, I'm glad they have sufficient length to tuck into pants.
