How the heck did that ever get started? I mean what idiot ever thought that holding the pistol that way was cool? I guess the same one who thought up ebonics (there is now a real movement in the English departments of major universities to study ebonics as if it were a real language). Hey, too each their own I guess.
that's for real? dam i thought that was a joke. well who ever thought that one up has been smoking to much crack.
I always kinda assumed that the whole side-way shooting thing got started from hardcore gang wannabe's running away while shooting. You know - real tuff like :roll:. Here is a funny article about the gag.
LOL that pic has been around for years , you ought to see his 50 cal pistol one . I forgot the link to his home page dang it .
Funny thing is I remember meeting willie bubbits at SHOT back in the early days of the Steyr M series. he told me and another guy that some Italion movie studio had ordered M series guns with the dove tail cut into the slide on the top and the flat sides just so they could mount sites like that for a movie. He thought it was pretty funny. BTW, Birdman also makes real firearms accessories and is a really decent guy.
That is one of my favorite pics. I actually saw some gangstas at the gun show and they kept holding their guns sideways!!!
