But he wasn’t able to get to his BAR while Frank Hamer was pumping rounds at him from his Browning designed Remington Model 8 with the 15 round magazine.

I bought mine more than 20 years ago ... it has held up remarkably well to thousands of 9mm NATO (and equivalent reload) rounds.

I bought my first one in 1968 just after the race riots. I decided a single action would not get it. 6 vs 13 rounds.
