OCM Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 That's Dillinger's real 38 Super that was taken off him at his arrest in Tucson, the cops engraved it. I don't own it, was outbid by , I think, Mr. Depp .I tried. Don't make 20 mil a picture if that was the case here. Really don't know .He was carrying this and a Colt auto 45 at the same time. Double holster. Colt is still out there somewhere, we've tried to locate it. The engraving misspelled his name, then the engraver tried to correct it- A good eye can see this !

OCM Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) More photos of it.... Gun has full history on it, including the gun store in Fort Worth that H.S. Lebman also did some trading. Gun was purchased on his way to Tuscon, from the Chicago/St Paul area, had just come out of St Louis with a new 34 Hudson too. AND his famous squeeze, the Indian beauty Billie Frechette . I knew someone that actually met her in the 60s, up in Wisconsin. " He was a nice guy, bought me things" sorta stuff.

OCM Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 My pals & I have had many long conversations over a couple beers about what it was like for John & Billie. ( mainly John) . It wasn't uncommon that she stayed with the family on the farm, while John was off working. She was very well liked by the Dillinger family.Always wondered if they went target practicing with a Thompson. My wife has no interest in my Thompsons, just don't get it- Haaaa.
