Episode 009: The C96!
Added 2015-09-29 17:40:31 +0000 UTCAt this point, closing on episode 10, I can say we would not have been able to float the show without the rapidly growing support from you, our patrons.
Thank you everyone for believing in this project!

2015-10-01 18:34:44 +0000 UTCIt is true that the Bittner isn't what we think of as a true auto loader but we felt it was fair to mention as part of the mad dash in pistol development of the time. I believe Ian was just on Handgun Radio talking about these guns this week. <a href="http://handgunradio.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://handgunradio.com</a>
