Honoring All Who Stand For Freedom
Millions of Americans have proudly served
America, bravely standing during times of peace and when duty called
during times of war. And many – from the American Revolution to current
day battles in Iraq and Afghanistan – have paid the ultimate sacrifice
for the principles that America stands for – freedom, liberty and
justice for all the citizens of the world.
Today, many of our freedoms are threatened, by
outside enemies or proposed changes from our politicians. When our
victory was secured over Britain, America’s forefathers envisioned our
great country and drafted the essential documents outlining our new
nation’s freedoms: the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. At the heart
of those inspired documents, the Founding Fathers laid a foundation
guaranteeing freedom to every American citizen and limiting the role the
government would play in shaping that freedom.
A
Hand-Engraved Masterpiece
Now America Remembers is proud to introduce
the American Freedom Tribute Revolver. Because stainless steel provides
a most dramatic canvas for the elegant, hand-chiseled decoration, we
chose the Smith & Wesson Model 627 Pro Series revolver in .357 Magnum®
for the American Freedom Tribute. Since short barrel handguns are
currently so popular with collectors, this 4-inch barreled beauty was
selected as the perfect choice to capture the strength and resilience of
American Freedom, and the determination of all our citizens to retain
the freedoms we have enjoyed for more than 200 years.
Each Pro Series Model 627 features chamfered
charge holes for quick loading during competition, a precision crown
muzzle and a bossed mainspring. Each revolver features a smooth double
action with a single action pull, and includes an interchangeable front
sight and an adjustable rear sight in order to provide for quick target
alignment.
This limited production revolver is
custom-engineered for competitive shooting and fires eight shots rather
than the usual six, a new innovation in the world of shooting, hunting
and self-defense firearms – 30% more firepower than a sixshot revolver.
With eight shots of .357 Magnum, it epitomizes power in a compact
firearm.
Each of these museum-quality masterpieces will be
hand-engraved, using the traditional, time-honored hammer and- chisel
technique to complement the lines of this sleek model. Engravers with
years of experience hand-cutting artwork on firearms have been
commissioned specifically for this historic project by America
Remembers. The process by which these Tributes are designed, combining
highly skilled hand-engraving on the frame and barrel with precise laser
engraving on the cylinder, is extensive and cannot be rushed, so please
realize the lead time for this fine engraving could take considerable
time. In addition, each Tribute revolver will be mirror-polished by
experienced firearms polishers.
Impressive 8-Round Cylinder!
Only
250 Available
Only 250 American Freedom Tribute Revolvers
will ever be created and are available exclusively through America
Remembers. Since each firearm is hand-engraved, it will take a number of
months to produce each order. Do not hesitate to make your reservation
now so that you can secure your place in our engravers’ schedule.

licensed firearms dealer of your choice. If you are not completely
satisfied with your Tribute after your personal inspection, you may

It has been more than 200 years since the
Founding Fathers came together with the determination to shape our new
nation and secure our national liberties. Yet today, the proud spirit of
those who serve America, along with the voices of everyday citizens,
remains strong to preserve these fundamental American freedoms for every
future generation.
The American Freedom Tribute Revolver is a truly
unique presentation firearm, honoring the history, heritage and
patriotism that make America great. Display this Tribute, and it will be
a reminder for all Americans to be ever-vigilant in protecting our
freedoms and an encouragement to support today’s ongoing battle to
protect all the freedoms we cherish in our nation.

Complementing the overall design are the 24-karat
gold-plated hammer, trigger, side plate screws, cylinder release and
cylinder release screw, along with the handsome, finger-grooved rosewood
grips.
The right side of the 4” flat barrel features the hand-chiseled word
“Freedom.” The inlaid American flag and bald eagle medallion perfectly
capture the cherished symbols of American freedom. In stunning enamel,
the steely gaze of a majestic bald eagle is vividly captured against the
red, white and blue backdrop of Old Glory.
The Tribute is hand-engraved with ornate, flowing
scrollwork. Laser-engraved on the cylinder are the words, “The Second
Amendment,” “The Right of the People,” and “To Keep and Bear Arms,” with
each letter laser-engraved crisply into the stainless steel. The words
are a potent reminder of the importance of “America’s First Freedom.”
