: It's about the only way around those pesky gun laws. Also, I'm a diehard believer that Indy would have carried the Colt 1911
: instead of a weenie 9mm, even though the Hi-Power is a GREAT firearm. They are close cousins, having both been designed by John Browning.

Since the Browning was unavailable to the public in 1936, he would have carried a Colt.

Not that this matters, but there is a Makarov air pistol which is an exact copy of the Russian pistol, even made by the same company. It uses a CO2 capsule in a magazine which loads just like the real thing. You cant tell the difference by looking at them.
