Corb Lund Priceless Antique Pistol Shoots Startled Owner

Inspect the silver inlay and the finely engraved steel,
rich carved ivory grips with checkered lines that you can feel.
You'll find it premature who call the calibre obsolete
when olden-time design and modern treacherousness meet.
It's a curio that's slipped between our current laws as read.
Priceless as an artifact but leaves you just as dead.
Craftsmanship like this is not displayed much anymore
and there ain't too many gangsters shooting Russian .44

To think a learned chronicler like you would be the one
whose eye for detail failed to see him reaching for your gun.
But you must be the first in 90 years to meet his death
by way of antique archaic blackpowder pistol's breath.
Despite your recent injuries you must admit that still,
it remains an elegant and stylish way to kill.
Yes despite my injuries, good sir, I cannot lie -
it remains an elegant and stylish way to die.
