A short story of two very different broomhandles

Very nice comparison and write up, thanks for taking the time to post that. They've always reminded me of puzzle toys.

I, too, like the Broomhandle. These are all in 9x19mm...makes them easy to shoot and load for.

Asians as a whole are only 5% of US population and I think only Chinese really care about the Broomhandles but as mentioned there is only so many to go around. I don't think a new Broomhandle had been made since 1939 and most I find in my travels are well worn.

I did know an Armenian or two that were really in to getting a Broomhandle I do think these guns got around and do have a mystique like the Luger.

I knew about the connection to China with Broomhandles but not about being called box cannons. Getting OT but I'd like to find a RHKP Royal Hong Kong Police model 10 S&W eventually. I saw a Colt revolver so marked before a long time ago too.
