LOL! IMHO, you win the internet today!
Agreed on the width problem. This type of weapon is a last defense type IMO. Even a 9 would have some stout recoil in this ugly and horribly designed package.
What can it do that a concealed Glock 9mm can't do?
Gene Barry used one in the old BAT MASTERSON western series on TV.
Andrew Jackson nailed one of his political rivals with a sword cane. He would laugh today at our political world today where the candidates fence with words instead of swords and guns.
***They had the best toys back then, to politically incorrect nowadays.***
Back then boys were still being raised to be men and looked back at our Frontier days as being the model of what Americans are.
Then Bobby Kennedy got murdered and the National Media began an effort to feminize the kids and turned away from our wild and wooly Western past to a more effete model for our youth.
Let’s hope no elementary school student nibbles a PopTart into the shape of a smart phone.
I had a belt buckle as well - but it was western themed.
Not sure what it was called.
I had a Diamond Back DB9. Lost it in a flood. That thing has a kick to it even while shooting Blazer Brass target loads.
Of course. As Trump says it just shows how messed up DC is that both parties in Congress agree corporate taxes are too high, but won’t do anything because they don’t want the other side to get any credit. The Pubs run Congress. They could pass a bi-partisan bill and put it on Obama’s desk, but they don’t. Trump’s tax plan calls for cutting corporate taxes and a one time amnesty to bring overseas money back here.
There’s also a larger national security concern when it comes to companies like Boeing moving their manufacturing overseas. I’ve frequently asked the phony “real conservatives” if it matters to them whether Boeing manufactures it’s planes in the USA or China. They generally just evade the issue, or say the solution is to get enact an entire agenda of cutting taxes, legal reform and eliminating government regulations. Since all that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon, the reality is they don’t care. (See my tagline)
Sorry, replied to wrong post!
Yeah, mine was too. The one in the picture is marked Agent Zero. I think they originally sold it as part of a western set in the late 50’s and brought back repackaged and stamped Agent Zero in the spy craze of the 60s.
Sounds like you are NOT a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment; if there was a pen gun on the market I would buy one
You pay your money and you take your chances.
My father trusted his life with a Tokarev he took from a dink in a steamy clime. He said it was a good sidearm, but ran out of that funky ammo. 7.62X29? Similiar ballistics to a .357.
So he went to a Browning P-35.
But you’re right about old military pieces for personal defense. Old technology, could be mild steel that can’t handle modern loads
