Why do Americans love M 19 1 1? This century-old gun still stands on the sales charts. Especially, a ticket of Junying M 19 1 1 was sold out after its initial listing, and even needed to draw lots to get it.
Americans' love for M 19 1 1 is related to their muscle culture. For example, in American high schools, the most popular boy may be a good-looking nerd, but the hottest guy must be the muscular man on the football team. This preference may be related to the characteristics of advocating force in American culture.
In the American high school caste system, athletes with bumpy muscles have become the top existence. However, we always mistakenly think that the United States is associated with technology, nerds and so on. In fact, Americans are very rude. Dressing, decorating and driving are all rude, and so are the guns used.
M 19 1 1 The caliber of the gun is 1 1.43. Strong braking force, full-size steel gun body, weighing about 1 kg, heavy hand feeling and full muscle feeling.
America's love for big caliber stems from history. 1899, the United States encountered problems in the Philippine war, and the .38 bullets used could not defeat the indigenous soldiers.
So, they began to use the eliminated .45 caliber colt pistol. This incident made Americans realize the importance of big caliber and accepted this trend happily. This attitude of insisting on reasoning with each other still exists.
In World War I, Sergeant Owen York shot and killed six Germans who rushed at him with a 19 1 1, and finally forced the German officers to surrender. During World War II, even if the US military didn't distribute M 19 1 1, it would try to buy one as a last resort.
So M 19 1 1 has a very important historical position in the whole 20th century, which is a cultural factor.
M 19 1 1, as the works of master browning, is of great significance in structural principle itself. At that time, most countries still used rotating wheels and some sleeveless pistols, but Browning combined sleeve, barrel recoil and barrel offset, which was durable, safe and reliable.
Modern pistols are still inseparable from the basic framework of pistols left by Browning a hundred years ago. So M 19 1 1 is detached in design, and it is not necessarily backward now. It is indeed a single-action firing, and its range and accuracy are not excellent, but it is not a thing. In the face of feelings, such small details can be ignored.
Sometimes I feel that M 19 1 1 is like a wild horse. Although the maneuverability and acceleration are not good, it is just like that. Sports cars with the same price can basically do it, but Americans are rough representatives in their hearts. what can I do?
