re: #249 William Barnett-Lewis

Well… if rifled & if using a Minnie type hollow base bullet, one could put a round into the face of balaclava boy at a greater distance than expected. It would work as an ambush on occasion ala the US made “Liberator” pistol to obtain a proper firearm that is no longer of use to the person it was issued to…

If the user is well trained. But an old Mosin-Nagat or a war-trophy Mauser would be a much better choice. Lighter, faster firing, and much more accurate.
