I've seen it. Interesting that gun was developed by a convict serving time.

Williams did NOT develop the M1 Carbine while in prison. He developed his idea for a short-stroke tappet piston while in prison. Winchester hired him to complete a carbine designe first begun by John Browning's half-brother. Williams was out of prison while working for Winchester. |

Comes around regularly on TCM. Wish there were no commercials. You might try the Turner site and see if you can buy a copy there. I think they must own the rights.

Williams also spent a considerable amount of time at Aberdeen Proving Ground while working for Winchester, which is where my dad met him. Dad has a set of files (gun files, like for filing metal) that once belonged to Williams.

It's not on any format you can buy - vhs or dvd. I'll have to keep watching the schedule for it. It's been awhile since I've seen it. |
