Which is was JWB said after killing Lincoln.

Which is was JWB said after killing Lincoln.
Or was it before/during the killing of Lincoln?


My dad's got a Ruger Blackhawk .44. I don't like these older grips. They're uncomfortable and hurt your hands.

It's a hand cannon?

Correct me if im wrong but the term hand cannon is used to describe guns greater than(?) or equal to .50 caliber?

Or was it before/during the killing of Lincoln?
It was after he killed him. Why would he yell it before or during the murder? "Hey, let's just go ahead and give away my position!! YOLO"

it's really just slang for any pistol/revolver that shoots a high-powered round
because then you'd be saying a .460 S&W or a .357 Maximum revolver isn't handcannon status

Well, 11 or so millimeters really is bordering on the level of cannon.

The handle may be vintage, but somebody finally agrees with me.

Well, he did shoot the president in the head and them jump from a two story height before saying it, so...

EDIT: I mean, he was going to give away his postition anyway.

Also, after looking at it again, the inscription is "Sic Semper Tyrannis".
Isn't that what John Wilkes Booth yelled when he assassinated Abraham Lincoln?
