To see footage of Paul Harrell used here both warms my heart and pains our loss, rest in peace Paul "pop tart" Harrell.

I love nerding out over historical data like this. TBH, anything with John Moses Browning hooks me

i remember growing up watching all the old lads using 38super. Honestly it's surprising how unpopular it is today.

Had a friend with a 1911 chambered in 38 Super. I could not miss whatever I aimed that pistol at. Follow on shots were no problem either.
