"Bonnie and Clyde loved their shotguns. Clyde shortened the barrel of his Browning A-5 by 6 inches to make it easy to conceal and get to — he called the gun his “Whippit” because he could easily “whip it out” — and the sight of Clyde whipping it out terrified hundreds of bank customers in the ‘30s.
Clyde and his shotgun wouldn’t have frightened good ol’ Joe. The veep would have cracked a gaffe and Clyde would have fallen down laughing until the sheriff arrived."
