Not to pick nits, but Bond's PPK was a .32, not a .380.
Imagine how deadly he'd have been with a major caliber like .380!
And let's not forget that Commander Bond went through the first five books and five years of his career using a .25 ACP Beretta 418. Talk about the least effective choice that could be made.

Bond was issued the Walther PPK in 1958's Dr. No. Fleming admitted in an interview at some point that he had no expertise or interest in the technicalities of firearms.

Guess what books got me hooked on reading in the early 60s...
DOH!!!.... :oops:

Maybe I should stop watching movies and read a book now and then.... :mrgreen:

Next you're all going to tell me that my carry .45 won't blow people back 15 feet...say it isn't so!!!! :eek6

Re: "5 ridiculous gun myths everyone believes"

The comments are the usual gang of trolls pointing out that there are exceptions to everything in the article but generally it is correct. It certainly is a perfect description of the insanity that the anti's believe. They love to come up with all sorts of fantastical scenarios and assumptions and then pass it off as reality.
