NRA lobbying & purchase of legislators at the state & federal level unleashed a veritable flood of high power guns that civilians didn't have in the 1920's - 1950's.<br /><br />2.

Movies/TV shows emphasized the razzle dazzle of these guns via paid product placement. There is no sex appeal to the old 38 revolver.TRENT HALLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16667657921108793036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-351324813740947143.post-49749929996063267322018-06-07T21:11:11.977-04:002018-06-07T21:11:11.977-04:00Worry not.
