Engaging poppers with a Select-fire M1 Thompson sure looks cool!

What's with carrying the M1911's in condition three?

That looks like it was up in Colorado somewhere. Looks like a lot of fun too!

that's exlpained in the video comments.


It's got to do with cross-draws..



>ETA:






Pistols will be drawn from holsters. Because AZSA is a costuming sport
and shoulder holsters fit the roles, guns may not be drawn with a round
chambered! The reason is because of potential sweeping with a gun drawn
from a shoulder holster (see rule 7). To be consistent and fair, this
will include all auto-loading pistols drawn from ANY holster. Since it
is difficult to have a revolver in an un-chambered condition they may
not be drawn from a shoulder holster. Revolvers can ONLY be carried and
drawn from hip mounted holsters

It's explained, however... That's how things were done "back then"... C&L wasn't widely subscribed to.

I know old guys who still freak about my carrying a condition-1 1911, they just shake their heads.
