After President McKinley's assassination in 1901, close associates noted that the Colonel always had a large handgun within reach—in his coat pocket, at his side, never far from his hand. He didn't carry guns as accessories. He carried them as philosophy. A man prepared for anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eKnown to historians as the Bull Moose Revolver, this single action was ordered on October 10, 1912—just four days before an assassin’s bullet lodged itself in Roosevelt’s chest during a campaign speech in Milwaukee.
