According to Ramsey's book, he obtained the M1918 BARs from the National Guard Armory in Enid and in Illinois. The Colt Monitor was not very prevalent as there were something over 100 built. Hamer armed his team of Deputies with the Colt Monitor after Hinton discovered that the .45 ACP round from the Thompson did not penetrate the car bodies of the time. Hamer used a .35 Remington Model 8. This lack of penetration also contributed to the use of the .38 Super at the time, until the arrival of the .357 Magnum.
You are correct about the historical accuracy.
Has there ever been a "based on a true story" movie where the actual participants were as attractive as the actors chosen to play them? Bonnie Parker... Faye Dunaway. Not a difficult decision, IMHO.
Well, Amelia Earhart could give Hilary Swank a run for the money in that regard, I suppose.

It was Ok, but was slow. Part 2 is tonight. Rather watch this than what wife watches, Betrayal,etc.
Would like to see it but not on anything we can get with an antenna. Not worth the $50.00+ a month for a once in a blue moon show that might be interesting. Maybe it will eventually end up on dvd.
It'll be on couchtuner by next week.
Tonight should be better.
What is couchtuner
it was decent, I like historical type events and I like to see the old cars/clothes, etc...
It didn't get rave reviews online and I didn't watch the '76 movie...but so far so good.
