The book is something of a cult classic in the gun culture. Indeed, the very term gun culture has many of its origins in this book. I believe you can still obtain copies from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuratepress.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Accurate Press<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One of the firearms that Henry and his father bought before the onset of the Gun Control Act of 1968 was a 20mm Solothurn S18-1000. While it is now considered a destructive device, back then you could get it through the mail. Imagine that!<\/p>\n<p>Ian from Forgotten Weapons recently had the change to fire one of these anti-tank rifles at the James Julia auction house in Maine. I&#8217;ll let him continue the story of the Solothurn.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" scrolling=\"no\" seamless=\"seamless\" src=\"https:\/\/www.full30.com\/embed\/b5865d95d6bf3f96aa264626f04021e8\" width=\"560\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\nIf anyone knows what has become of John Ross, I&#8217;d love to know.
