Wildland Firefighter Edition - Limit 25 Per State

Product details
Historical Armory is proud to pay tribute each year to the American Firefighter. This year our theme is "Wildland Firefighters." Through the years, our rifles have delighted firefighters with a high quality keepsake and helped departments raise desperately needed funds through local fundraising efforts. With our personalization program, our rifles have marked the years of service of a retiring firefighter, and sadly, honored the loss of others in the line of duty. Of all the editions we make, the annual Firefighter Edition is a project we always pour our hearts into. What comes from our efforts is a picture of how we and all Americans see you, The Authentic American Hero.
Wildfires are undoubtedly one of nature's most dangerous and unpredictable events, incinerating thousands of acres of America's forests, grasslands, and backcountry every year. When sparked by lightning far from populated areas, wildfires are often allowed to burn without interference as an essential element in maintaining healthy forest ecosystems. In other cases, a carelessly discarded cigarette butt or smoldering campfire can erupt into a roaring conflagration that threatens lives, land, and property in America's wild places. When that happens, highly-skilled wildland firefighters are the first and last line of defense against the menacing flames. Utilizing a variety of specialized equipment and tactics including chainsaws, Pulaski fire tools, drip torches, helicopters, and air tankers, wildland firefighters work tirelessly to contain wildfires and protect communities across America, all while enduring tremendous personal risk.
