Liberals are a curious mix of communism and fascism, they want to destroy you but want to use your own money to do it.
I'd rather be CALLED a fascist then BE a liberal. |

Great thread. Some really nice pieces here. Wish I got into revolvers much earlier in life. Recently picked up my first. Fun to shoot, easy to reload, the visual and mechanical steam-punk aspect of it I guess is very pleasing. I'm inclined to trade-in an infrequently used semi-auto for one, but I've never had great success getting a decent return around here... Just need to save up I guess
