[QUOTE="mrray13, post: 532195, member: 540942"] i believe ur right about the rise and fall of the .38 super. i seem to remember something about it when my mother (yep, my mommy) was in law enforcement. at the time they were issued .38 special revolvers, unless they wanted to purchase their own, in which case most bought .357's. this is the early to mid eighties, and gang's such as the bloods and the crypts 50 brownie points for someone OTHER then phoneman who can tell me why the early taurus auto's looked(and were almost internally)EXACTLY like the beretta's..... the pro shooting crowd picked up on the .38 super (most reload, duhh) because of it's stability and relatively light recoil. also, the fact most .38 super's were on the 1911 frame made parts abundent.. ur correct about 30/06 sir... i'm still looking up the 30/30.. any takers on the 9mm parabellum?? what firearm in history made the most signifigant use out of the parabellum? (no,it isn't the tec 9 or a glock) ok..hehe.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/peace.gif.2db28b618ed8d1964ebbe2f5021d2c39.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
