The Firearm Blog recently posted a great piece on an experimental fully automatic 1911 developed by Colt in the 1930′s. But even better, at least to my taste, was a snapshot of John Dillinger’s 1911, chambered in .38 Super, that he’d converted to fully automatic himself.
I’ve made no bones about being a John Dillinger fan. (And Johnny Depp can go to hell for that one.) In fact, about sixty percent of the reason I’m currently building up a Springfield GI 1911 as my carry gun is because it was the preferred handgun for Dillinger, Pretty Boy Floyd, and the like. I’ll cop to being a little more whimsical than is entirely seemly when it comes to guns.
By the way, if the combination of this monster pistol and John Dillinger’s other, ahem, endowments, don’t put a rest to the whole canard about men trying to make up for inadequate penis size with huge handguns, I don’t know what will.
Don’t call me “Pretty Boy.”
Sorry, Choc.
Apology accepted, but don’t be lettin’ it happen again.
Now, you do know Johnny D. never actually used the gadget pictured for anything other than amusement, right? Among other problems, the magazine was empty before you could do anything with it.
Have to admit that it looks cool, though.
I was just hoping this wasn’t the one he slept with under his pillow.
