The Mystery of James Bond's Long-Barrel .45 Car Gun
This video delves into the mystery of James Bond's 'long-barrel .45' car gun, analyzing Ian Fleming's literary descriptions against actual firearm capabilities. Candidates like the Colt Army Special, Single Action Army, and M1911 are examined. The 'safety catch' detail strongly suggests the M1911 was Fleming's intended, albeit perhaps anachronistic, choice for Bond.
