My Gadsden Flag
« on: August 13, 2009, 08:41:40 PM »
Okay, this is a little play on history.

Here is "my" Gadsden flag. 




Yes, I own a PPK/s manufactured in Gadsden.
And before someone thinks I don't realize where the real Gadsden flag comes from it's named after a revolutionary war hero, Col. Gadsden.

 Wasn't the town named for the same guy ? He operated through that area.

alfsauve,  That's pretty cool.

Could have been.   According to the history he operated in SC.   I'll check.

Ah, got it.

The town was named for JAMES Gadsden, grandson of Christopher for whom the flag is named.

Click "quote" and you will see it says "Glock".
I assume that is because either Eric is prejudiced against "lowland " Germans, or else he supports the "Austrin" school of economics.
Of course it COULD just be that he is a peckerhead.  ;D
