BarryinIN Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 From when guns were not only socially acceptable, but cool. Sammy Davis Jr doing fast draw and gun spinning onstage:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6aNzFYHyz8Think about what you are watching here. The crowd was not only watching an entertainer handling a gun onstage, but one of the Rat Pack- the coolest of the cool. They not only accepted it, they loved it.Impressive to me is that he is spinning a 7-1/2" barreled gun there. I have done some SA spinning when I was younger and more foolish, and while the shorter barreled ones practically want to spin, a 7-1/2" SAA handled like a brick to me in comparison. Sammy was a small guy, almost tiny, and that 7-1/2" SAA would be like a Casull or BFR in average hands but he makes it look effortless.And Sammy on The Rifleman episode "Two Ounces of Tin":http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddFqDq8LyKI&feature=related Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
