Come and Take It - Artillery Edition T-Shirt - From Gonzales to the Modern Battlefield - The Spirit of Defiance Lives On.

From Gonzales to the Modern Battlefield — The Spirit of Defiance Lives On.

The phrase “Come and Take It” has echoed through nearly two centuries of American grit — from the cannons of Gonzales to the black rifles of today. This exclusive Powder & Lead design pays homage to that legacy with a modern twist: a bold M4 howitzer standing front and center, crowned by a lone star — the same emblem of defiance that started a revolution.

Printed on a premium, soft yet durable tee, this design captures the unbroken thread of independence and self-reliance that defines every generation of Americans who refuse to be disarmed, dismissed, or dictated to. The cannon may have changed, but the message hasn’t — Come and Take It.

Design Story

The design reimagines the historic 1835 Gonzales flag — the first flag of the Texas Revolution — through the lens of modern firepower. Instead of the small bronze cannon, the M4 howitzer symbolizes the unmatched precision, might, and readiness of today’s defenders. The single star above is more than decoration — it’s the eternal mark of resolve. Below, the words “Come and Take It” appear in bold military-stencil lettering, reminding anyone who sees it that the spirit of resistance remains alive and well.

It’s the same challenge, updated for a new age: a salute to those who stand their ground and honor the generations who did the same.
