Did anyone else notice that on the pistol draw the slides were racked as part of the draw?  This is a reported possible root of the Gangsta Hold....  somehow it seems suitable here.

I guess requiring the chamber to be empty on the draw was a safety issue?

Hell, give me a Tommy Gun and I'll dress as flapper (leg shaving will require a 50 round drum) ;D. The zoot shooters are a hoot. I would love to be able to play in this league.

I wanted a Tommy Gun for years...just because they looked so good and has such a rich heritage..

I fired a full auto modle at Knob Creek and was disappointed to find it fired from an open bolt.  I just don't think that is a "clean" design.

But maybe only the full auto versions fire from an open bolt?  Does anyone know if the modern semi-auto ones still fire from an open bolt?

I hope so....or I'll start longing for one again....

Our beloved Michael Bane had a zoot suit shoot here last summer with some pics in the archives...

Where's alf, he's a natural zoot suit shooter, with Fedora...I think his last avatar, listening to the Cherry Poppin Daddy's, Squirrel Nut Zippers, one of those "new" flapper bands.....
