[QUOTE="WTJ, post: 2358132, member: 6661"] 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. [/QUOTE]
