Went to the John Dillinger museum
For a project I had to do for my History of Crime class, I had to visit the John Dillinger Museum in Indiana. It had pretty much everything on the man and his gang and anyone associated. I was more interested in the guns. I saw the entire case that contained most of the guns of the gang, though the full auto pistol was in a separate case and at the entrance, there was one 1921 Tommy buy with a 30 round magazine for some reason. I didn't see the modified Winchester that Homer used. They didn't really labeled all the guns with their exact names, like putting down "Colt .45" or "Tommy Gun". They did however mislabeled the drum mag as a drum clip. There was also a glass case full of toys that were out at the time and one of the toy was this very realistic cap gun of the 1903 Colt pistol with white colored grips. I wished I could take pictures but they said no flash photography.
