THIS GUN WILL EVOKE IMAGES OF THE FAMOUS VILIANS SUCH AS BONNIE AND CLYDE AND JOHN DILLENGER AND PRETTY BOY FLOYD ALONG WITH THE LAWMEN WHO SENT THEM STRAIGHT TO HELL. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS PISTOL WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THE GREAT DEPRESSION WHEN FEW WERE MADE AND THEY WERE BOUGHT BY THOSE WITH A GOOD REASON TO BUY ONE AND THE MONEY TO DO IT WITH.
