Cramer, Committee on Committees, PLANS Committee on Judiciary, Supreme Court Decisions, Public Works 1st (St. Petersburg) Dist., Florida & My RESPONSE is a quotation from You and Your USA (DOD, Nov. 24, '54) on the subject of the Bill of Rights: KITS "The amendment resulted from the fear that Congress might disarm the State militias. The Constitution assures that this right to maintain State militias will remain with the States and that Congress cannot take it away. "The Supreme Court has permitted some regulations of this right to 'keep and bear arms.' For example, an Illinois law that prohibited groups of men to associate together as a military organization, or to drill and/or parade with arms in cities and towns, was upheld by the Court as not violating this amendment. The Court also upheld a provision of the National Firearms Act that made it illegal to transport an unregistered sawed·off shotgun in interstate commerce. The Court held that there was no evidence that posses· sion or use of a sawed·off shotgun had any reasonable relationship to the preservation or efficiency of a well·regulated militia. "This right to 'keep and bear arms' does not apply to concealed weapons. Therefore, State laws that make it a crime to carry a concealed weapon without a permit do not violate this amendment. Gunberth "The Court has also held that this right applies only to citizens and may be denied Model No. to aliens." 5CF·11 Congressman Glenn Cunningham, Comm.: Interior & Insular; PO & Civ. Ser. 2nd Dist.. Nebraska My VIEW OF THIS amendment is that the people shall have the right to bear arms to defend their homes and that the people shall have the right to organize for the purpose Complete Working Plans of preserving law and peace through a collection of citizens authorized to act as police­ and Ready-Cut Kits men or militia, in the form of the National Guard. As time has passed since the framing ... for these Gunberth* Cabinets and of this Second Amendment, circumstances have changed and the carrying of arms has 20 other models are NOW AVAILABLE TO YOU! become less necessary for self·protection and for shooting game. Because it is a basic tenet of our Federal Government that fields not covered hy Federal law shall he left to the States and cities, the States and cities have drawn up the necessary laws and ordi· nances to control the carrying of arms, acting always in the public interest, yet mindful of the desires by many citizens to use firearms for other than defending their homes or preserving law and order. Just so long as State and local ordinances do not allow indiscriminate bearing of arms by persons whose purposes are contrary to law and order, I do not feel that Congress or any other branch of the Federal Govt. should encroach upon this field. Congressman Francis E. Dorn, Comm.: Merchant Marine & Fish 12th (Brooklyn) Dist., N.Y. UNDER OUR American system, I believe an adequate Reserve for our ground forces can only be maintained under the traditions and community organization of the ational Guard, not through an enlisted reserve; and under the conditions of modern warfare, the National Guard, especially the Air Guard, is once more becoming the first line of home defense, as were the militiamen in colonial days. With the threat of aerial attack, by bombers and airborne forces, each community, each region, must have its own antiaircraft, its air defense units, ready nearhy. ConCJressman Samuel L.

  • M1917 Colt Revolver and M1917 Smith & Wesson Revolver
    M1917 Colt Revolver and M1917 Smith & Wesson Revolver M1917 Colt M1917 Smith & Wesson As production of the semi-automatic M1911 Colt Pistol was unable to satisfy demand for sidearms to equip the quickly expanding army in 1917, double action, six-shot revolver was speedily developed by two manufacturers, Colt and Smith & Wesson, chambered in the same caliber rimless ammunition intended for the M1911, .45 ACP (Automatic Colt Pistol). More akin to the traditional service revolver the M1911 replaced, these heavy revolvers were manufactured to supplement the pistol issues along with the iconic automatic. Both revolvers were similar, with left opening hinged cylinders and extractors for spent casings. So the rounds would properly headspace in the bore, and also so the extractor could grip the rimless cartridges for ejection, however, it was necessary to provide “half-moon” clips into which 3 .45 ACP cartridges were loaded. A woven ammunition pouch was provided to carry 18 rounds in 6 clips contained in three pockets. The pistol was carried in a russet leather holster with securing flap fastened on the waistbelt with the ammunition pouch. A lanyard fastened to a ring screwed into the buttplate of the stock. Pistol belt with revolver (S. & W.) and accoutrements. Cylinder open to show ejector and half moon clip with cartridges, and cartridge without clip. Half moon clip without cartridges. Revolvers are traditionally steadier on the aim (if fired single action, cocking the hammer each shot, rather than firing double action). More recovery of aim and sight picture is required when firing double action, as is found from firing repeatedly, semi automatically with the M1911 pistol.
