Texas Ranger
Tribute Revolver
There is a saying
in Texas:
"One Riot,
One Ranger."
History is filled with accounts of legendary Texas Rangers who brought
law and order to towns torn by blood feuds, and Rangers who fought bravely
against bands of outlaws and Indian war parties to protect the citizens
of Texas. Time and again, they proved that one person in the right could
triumph over even the greatest odds.
Capt. Leander
McNelly:
"There
are only two kinds of people for us - outlaws and law-abiding. Treat
these law-abiding folks with all respect, regardless of color or
size. Don't enter a house unless the man invites you in. Don't take
a an ear of corn or melon unless he tells you to. If his dog barks
at you, get away from it. Don't shoot it. Let them know we're their
friends sent down to help them."
The backstrap
of the pistol features the inscription,
"They Knew Their Duty and They Did It."
On the recoil
shield is the official logo of the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and
Museum in Waco, Texas, which houses a spectacular collection of
Texas Ranger artifacts and is dedicated to preserving the Texas
Ranger heritage for future generations.
The cylinder
features portraits of six legendary Texas Rangers......Maj. John
Jones, Capt. Leander McNelly, Sgt. John B. Armstrong, Capt. Bill
McDonald, Capt. Dan Roberts, Sgt. James B. Gillett.
A display case

 The
Texas Ranger Dragoon
Edition Sold Out Thank You
A
museum-quality firearm for your collection that is both elegant and
historically significant. Firsts are rare. The historic Texas Ranger
Dragoon is the rarest of the rare.
It is from the first inscribed Samuel Colt presentation revolver of
which we have any record. It was presented by Samuel Colt to one of
his most celebrated contemporaries, Major Ben McCulloch, a Texas Ranger
whose frontier exploits during the mid-years of the 19th century have
passed into legend.
An
ardent supporter of Colt's "repeaters," McCulloch was widely
regarded as one of the two most fearless men on the Texas frontier.
The other was Ranger Jack Hays, another great Colt enthusiast.
With the presentation of the "McCulloch Dragoon," Samuel
Colt initiated a lifelong tradition that made his name synonymous
with fine firearms throughout the 19th century. He had presented firearms
to illustrious contemporaries before, accompanied by letters, but
none had ever borne personal inscriptions, so far as we know.
This
much is certain: the earliest surviving inscribed presentation Colt
is Ben McCulloch's Transition Dragoon, serial number 1337. Ranger
McCulloch carried his cherished Colt for the remaining 13 years of
his life. During the Civil War it was with him. At the Battle of Pea
Ridge, he died from a sniper's bullet. Then it mysteriously vanished
- only to reappear 13 years later in Texas.
The left grip
features a sterling silver medallion,
inscribed with the Texas Ranger motto:
Free as the breeze
Swift as a mustang
Tough as a cactus

7 1/2"

Texas Rangers
Tribute Rifle
Edition Sold Out
Thank You
Texas Rangers have served Texans since the earliest days, and the
history of the Rangers is legendary. Stories of their courage and
daring are world-renowned. In 1823, famed Texan Stephen F. Austin
proposed to employ "rangers" to protect settlers from hostile
Indians and the criminal element. Today, 175 years later, the Rangers
continue to protect the citizens of Texas.
Working in cooperation with the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum
in Waco, Texas, America Remembers proudly announces the Texas Rangers
175th Anniversary Tribute Rifle. For the Tribute, we selected the
classic Model 94 Winchester rifle in caliber .30-30, a rifle that

for this issue by America Remembers. From the gold and nickel embellished
receiver on the blackened background to the handsome laser-carved
