A Bonnie and Clyde gun? Never mind that it was even more of a favorite of the Law officers who ambushed and killed Bonnie and Clyde, and lots of others as well.
OTOH, it's really too bad old Miller didn't have a BAR or Thompson to guard his still with, instead of a ratty old Savage sawed off shotgun. Even the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court would likely have found himself able to take judicial notice that those were militarily useful weapons, which could contribute to the effectiveness of a well regulated militia.

Bonnie was a highly efficient BAR operator, and it was her primary weapon. Hers had part of the stock sawn off and part of the barrel.

I saw an old Hitler Channel episode on guns, basically, they said the BAR was so highly regarded by the government that someone in the government wouldn’t allow the Army to use them overseas during WW-I because they were afraid the Germans would copy it if they ever captured one.
