During the Korean War Jeff became involved with the training of Nationalist Chinese irregulars, some of whom were rather small and a bit intimidated at the thought of using a 45-caliber machine pistol. Here he demonstrates that two M-3 “Grease-Guns”
can be managed quite easily at once — with fair effectiveness at short range.
(Some may note that at that time Jeff had not yet promulgated Rule III.) #greasegun

Random Quote:

“In the larger sense, however, the personal ownership of firearms is only secondarily a matter of defense against the criminal. Note the following from Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants.”
