“This Is My Rifle” — U.S. Marine Corps Service Rifles 250th Anniversary Edition T-Shirt — Honor. Heritage. The Brotherhood of the Rifle.

Honor. Heritage. The Brotherhood of the Rifle.

Few words capture the Marine Corps ethos more completely than this:
“This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine.”

It’s more than a line from a creed — it’s a statement of discipline, precision, and devotion that defines every Marine from boot camp to the battlefield. The “This Is My Rifle” 250th Anniversary Edition T-Shirt from Powder & Lead pays tribute to that legacy, commemorating two and a half centuries of United States Marine Corps service rifles — from flintlock muskets to the cutting-edge precision of the modern M27 IAR.

Across the front, an artfully detailed lineup of rifles tells the full story of Marine Corps evolution. Each weapon represents a chapter of American history — the smoothbore Springfield of the Revolution, the Krag and Springfield bolt-actions of the early 20th century, the battle-tested Garand and M14, and the AR-platform rifles that define today’s Corps. Above them, the iconic creed stands in bold black text, crisp and unmistakable.

This isn’t just a shirt — it’s a timeline of grit, craftsmanship, and the unbreakable bond between a Marine and his weapon.

The quote — immortalized in Marine boot camp and made legendary in Marine culture — connects every generation who has ever taken the oath and shouldered a rifle. It’s not nostalgia — it’s identity. It’s pride.
