Let Freedom Ring Again.
Five years after Lexington and Concord, the British Army began its Southern Campaign, starting in South Carolina. But it was on October 7, 1780, that British Major Patrick Ferguson, a favorite of Cornwallis’, met his match on a rocky ledge in the Battle of Kings Mountain. It was “that turn of the tide of success which terminated the Revolutionary War,” Thomas Jefferson would later write. Over one thousand militiamen, not Continental soldiers, but average hunters, farmers, and woodsmen, came together to oust the British military in a decisive battle that turned the tide of the Revolutionary War.
In honor of these true American Patriots, Cimarron Firearms introduced the 250th Commemorative Frontier Rifle.

Cimarron’s beautifully figured maple stock is adorned with a left-side brass plate featuring the Liberty Bell “Let Freedom Ring.” The brass patch box features a Betsy Ross flag, two galloper cannons, crossed sabers, and “1776 – 2026” inscribed. The overall length of the percussion rifle is 54 ¾ inches, with a 29-inch barrel, and it weighs just over 7 pounds. The elegant 250th Commemorative Frontier Rifle is available in .45 or .50 caliber for an MSRP of $2,592.00.

“The Overmountain Men and the Battle of King’s Mountain were the crucial turning point in the Revolutionary War. These patriots were not soldiers, but a militia force comprised of frontiersmen from the Watauga and other areas that would become Tennessee, Virginia, and the Carolinas,” Mike Harvey, founder and president of Cimarron Firearms, commented. “The Overmountain Men used guerrilla tactics to surround and overwhelm Major Patrick Ferguson’s Loyalist force. It was the last time Cornwallis could count on Loyalists to fill his ranks. The Overmountain Men were not soldiers but fought purely for their independence and freedom from tyranny.”
