It's really only the M1A that gets me. The other guns are stainless, or otherwise unsympathetic.


What would cause the front of a 1911 slide to pop off like that? The slide coming back too hard, too fast?

For whatever reason, I can only see the picture of the Anaconda. Are there others?

Ah, found it embedded.

What's the story behind that one?

By it being at James Julia, I'm going to guess it's the 45Colt Elmer Keith blew up when he first started working on his heavy loads.  IIRC, he was using 3F black powder and 45-70 bullets.

makes sense now. I did immediately notice the corrosion on the cylinder and was thinking 'blood' but black powder is a better fit.

That's the one.
Blew it up, sparking the creation that would be the .44 Magnum.

I guess you could say that.  More accurately, it drove him to the more modern 44 special, which was better suited to such hot rodding.  From *there* he developed what would become the 44mag.
