More from Fragman1919A4
In a short five years WORLD WAR ONE also called the Great War (great used to mean big, not cool)
Will have been over for a century!
These are some of the pistols of the era:
Top is the Mauser C96 commercial Broomhandle pistol, the first successful self loading (semi automatic) pistol.
It remained in production for 40 years. It was also the first successful rimless cartridge firing pistol, and the first of the new "large caliber" military pistols. The wood stock behind it converts from a holster to a detachable shoulder stock. This one is in the original 7.63mm Mauser cartridge. This pistol was available in more forms than any other semi automatic pistol. Barrel lengths, frame, hammer, safety options, etc, made it one of the most customisable pistols ever.
To the right, the Pistole 08, or Luger Pistol. This one is an interwar commercial gun, but many private purchase guns were carried by officers of several nations. It is chambered for the 9mm luger cartridge. Original wooden toggle on the magazine is a nice thing to have for guns of this era.
Finally, the venerable Webley mark 6 revolver. Originally chambered in .455 Webley cartridge, this one has had the rear of the cylinder cut to accept 45 acp. Original hard rubber grips and a proper lanyard. This gun was made in 1916.

Yes, this is a Chinese contract gun. I am not sure when or who imported it. The bore looks like a sewer pipe. I am planning to send it off to be relined to original caliber.
It came with a chinese stock holster combo, and the typical chinese leather sam brown style holster. Any importers marks seemed to have been obliterated long ago.

gonna have it relined. And the pitted grip strap frames are common on chinese guns, just like the rotted bores.
Wait till you see what I laid away today..... Five very cool somethings.
One is one of the chinese rework 9mm detachable mag models, and one of the others is a rebarreled 9mm standards.

That is correct. We (Republic of China, the good China the Red White Blue) was under some really shitty treaty that prevents us to have actual submachine guns that we had to adapt the Broomstick for that role. Funny thing was the mobsters still got their hands on the Tommies.
These Broomstick was so effective (for their era of post WWI) that the Japanese actually collected them since the first series of Nambu (Japanese Luger) had a lot of problem (I am not bashing the Japanese, just stating fact that no one ever get it right off the bat). Much to the officers' dismay.

I meant Junior, and it says he also carried a Webly 'WG' Army model for 19 years in in two movies http://indianajones.wikia.com/wiki/.....'s_pistol
i saw the pilot, but worked nights and never got to see any more. I will have to order the set. When Temple of Doom came out, all I heard about was the kid. I dont go to movies to watch kids, so I never saw it. I suppose when I get the whole set I will enjoy it. Cuz its Indy, and Indy rocks.
While it's not as strong as the first or third movies, Temple of Doom is very much worth a watch. Short Round is far from annoying, he's great and while Willie can be a teensy bit annoying, the humor is still pretty funny. It's totally worth it to see Amrish Puri as Mola Ram.
At some point, yes "He also made use of a Colt New Service Revolver, and an Inglis-made Browning Hi-Power 9mm Automatic Pistol, on some of his adventures[1]."

I just thought that it would fit the character; one continuity has him being born in German, leaving with his family after the Great War, ending up in Chicago, joining the US Navy, and finally calling shots to land on the western half of Omaha Beach. I will probably be writing something about that shortly.
