"It's Important that somebody remembers" | The Story of the Liberty Cap, a symbol of freedom for 3000 years


Listen Later

Of all of the interesting headgear associated with the American Revolution, one of the simplest forms was the "Liberty Cap." 

Today we dive into the Muzzle Blasts Archives to bring you this article from the NMLRA Bicentennial series. With the 250th Anniversary of the United States in full swing around the country, we thought it appropriate to share the story of a forgotten little red cap from the front lines of our war for independence. 

In conjunction with this podcast, the NMLRA youtube channel has a new video walking you through the steps of making your own Liberty Cap so that you may erect your own liberty pole proudly exclaiming your freedom, just as the founders did years ago.

Muzzle Blasts Podcast

A special thanks this week to the guys at Primitive Pursuit for sponsoring the podcast! Primitive Pursuit was founded in 2017 to  be an outlet for learning experiences as a traditional bowhunter.

We couldn't have this conversation, the podcast, or anything here at the NMLRA without the support of our members. Everything we do is made possible because of their generosity. Thank you.
