In fact, the ammunition is a little hard to come by, accuracy is horrible (due to a very heavy trigger) but has a minimal number of parts (making it easy to service). \u00a0 The design of the gun is very unique as you can see in the video. \u00a0Take down can not really be described like any other gun.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>In general, this is a good gun for the History buffs. \u00a0If you are interested in historical weapons that left a foot hole in the history books, you may want to consider a Tokarev model. \u00a0They make good conversational pieces and are an interesting gun to have in a collection.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{youtube}hZ6r4byWDy4{\/youtube}<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Click the READ MORE below to read our article on the M57.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":13,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-254","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.civiliantacticalweapons.com\/wpctw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/254","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.civiliantacticalweapons.com\/wpctw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.civiliantacticalweapons.com\/wpctw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.civiliantacticalweapons.com\/wpctw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.civiliantacticalweapons.com\/wpctw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=254"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.civiliantacticalweapons.com\/wpctw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/254\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.civiliantacticalweapons.com\/wpctw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=254"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
