This is not mine but I got to handle it and take pictures. The feller said he has documentation where it was manufactured in 1918, issued in WWI and again in WWII then was a sheriff's issued piece in Oklahoma. He put a hundred rounds through it this morning. He carries it open in an old leather western holster.

I got my golf ball shooter today.
Saw my first at an outdoor range in South Tx this winter. With a blank, it shoots that ball over 500 yards. Got to find a source for 5.56 blanks now. I had 6, thinking I need a couple hundred and a whole lot more golf balls. [emoji12]
I’ll do a plywood penetration test after finding more blanks for grins and to see how bad a$$ it really is.
