Highwaymen - Gun Shop

Buying guns the same way you'd buy any other hardware😅 You really could do that back then?😮

The salesman is Steve Vernon he walked my wife down the aisle,good friend of ours

At the 54 second mark, the top image of the page he's looking at depicts a German G43. These were not invented until 1943.

My dream shop.

No one is mentioning it so I will. This is real HQ video👍👍

" Carter " lol.

I remember when you could walk in to a gun shop and purchase as many guns as you wanted, provided you had the money. Nowadays, if you try that, they flag you as an anarchist or terrorist.

Now that’s a gun shop

Regarding the Colt Monitor:
No, no,no.
Colt made 125
90 went to the FBI
11 to the Treasury Department.
The remaining ones (24) went to prisons and banks etc.

Ain’t no way you would find one in a little town Gun store.

why do i think of terminator 1?

This movie is fantastic and well made.
One mistake -- only one that I seen . When they cops are collecting evidence at the scene of a murder theyre collecting spent casings in a plastic spackle bucket. In 1934 plastic spackle buckets didnt exist.

“I’d like to have a look at that Thompson sub machine gun…”
Well, you won’t hear THAT in a gun shop today.

The 30/30 is the only one he handles because “I need one gun that won’t jam.”
I believe that was intended to be an inside joke but his face didn’t give much away.

I love this movie but I think I just saw a continuity mistake in that the BAR is already on the counter in one of the shots, I'm sure someone else may have noticed that but I just felt like typing I guess. Also wow this was a short lived time period when you could buy machine guns quite easily if you had the dough but way way less "non sporting" weaponry than today.

Clyde Barrow's gun of choice was a BAR

I kept waiting for him to ask to see next: “Phased plasma rifle in the 40 kilowatt range.”

Great movie, I'd do questionable things for a BAR

For years I was indifferent about the 2nd, ohh I supported it, but just didnt care. Then all the mass shootings started happening and I actually thought the left made better arguments. All the righties claiming they needed their guns to stand against government tyranny seemed silly to me. Then Covid happened and they locked us down, people lost damn near everything, they started using the Fed systems to maintain political power, they wanted to hire 87,000 or whatever IRS agents. Im now as hardened on the 2nd amendment as anyone.
