bank robbery

[Flintlock Whiskey]

That's all we need to have them going after our BP guns

Just wait for it:
Headline:
A branch of the First National Bank of Kentucky was held up by a man in buck skins wielding a flintlock rifle. There are renewed calls in congress for the banning of all rifles capable of firing more than one shot every 30 seconds.
Film at 11:00.

Just what we need is another reason to make it harder on us good guys. They never let a bad situation go to waste, so they say.
Wait, kinda looks like A Baldwin in cognitoe

 

[Story]

No wonder he's rocking such a heavy disguise, what with the shame of driving that rollerskate of a getaway car.

Also, dude better start eating some salads or the inevitable heart attack will kill him quicker than police bullets.

I'm pretty sure it's George Costansa. He had to move back home after Sinfeld ended. I wonder if there's a reward.

Fetterman uses a shotgun...

sorry, my bad

 

[Horse]

I bet he won't rob Popeyes!

Or complain about cold frys

 

[Urban Coyote]

Just be thankful he didn't have an aftermarket 30 round magazine for his revolver. I'm sure U.S. Rep.Shelia Jackson Lee has seen one before. After all, she told us of the AR-15 she'd seen that weighed more than 4 packing boxes and shot those big ol' 50 caliber bullets.

Yum Popeye's chicken, way better than robbing a bank.

 

[brushblind]

No, you just described John Fetterman!

I refer to him as Shrek but the character makes better sense!

Where did he get the caps

 

[Nor Cal Mikie]

How can folks here tell by a fuzzy picture it is either a Pietta or Uberti and them the model?

Folks see what they want to see.

That's NOTHING. Black Dude if SF just robbed a Mickey D's of 2 Big Macks with NO GUN.
What this world coming to? Big Macks got to be worth something.

just AMAZED at the STUPIDITY of some folks. Reminds me of some of our politicians. (DUH???)

 

[Nor Cal Mikie]

What was the movie not too far back when two brothers robbed a Texas Bank around noon on a Friday??? Good flick. (Jeff Bridges)

 

[JimFlint]

I doubt he could have fired it, I mean where would he have found percussion caps!

 

[FishDFly]

I don't know anything about what cap & ball revolvers are suitable for cartridge conversion but I'd question whether a brass frame gun would be a good choice, but then robbing a bank ain't too bright.

Amen.

Stole them from his Father's hoarded stash.

This is a sad event. In many cases it is legal for a felon to purchase an ml or C&B firearm. We all know they shoot and can be effectively used for illegal things like robbery. We have a local gun shop with a display case of C&B revolvers which he actually calls his "felons department". I don't like that but it is legal. OTOH, in some cases a felon cannot use even a so-called non-firearm. I have an acquaintance (former friend) who was convicted on seven Federal firearms charges. His sentence prohibits him from using or even having "anything that can fire a projectile". This means he cannot have a bow and arrows, slingshot, C&B pistol, anything.
