[jack 8thVirginia]

1862 Richmond Jefferson Davis Tribute Rifle-Limited Edition Only 300 Made! The blued barrel is beautifully complemented by hand-polished walnut stocks and 24-karat gold decoration. The right side of the stock features an illustration of two crossed Confederate flags (the familiar Confederate battle flag and the Third National flag) laser-etched into the walnut. Both flags are hand-painted in brilliant red, white and blue. The left side of the stock features a laser-etched quote from Jefferson Davis: “The principle for which we contend is bound to reassert itself, though it may be at another time and in another form.” A series of commemorative phrases are written along the blued barrel: “President Jefferson Finis Davis,” “1861 – 150th Anniversary of the War for Southern Independence – 1865,” and “Deo Vindice,” the motto of the Confederacy, meaning “God Will Vindicate.” The blued lock plate features a portrait of Jefferson Davis from the well-known photo by Mathew Brady and is decorated by elegant, ornamental scrollwork. Stamped into the plate to the left of the hammer is “1862,” a busy production year for the original Richmond rifle. To the right of the hammer is the legend: “C.S. Richmond, VA.” This gun is still for sale from America Remembers • Ashland, VA 23005 • Their Price: $2195.00. I am open to REASONABLE offers!
