The front barrel band on the left side has an integral sling loop, and it is all one piece with the bayonet mount that encloses a section of the barrel like a shroud. That makes it substantially more powerful than the .45 ACP, and it had more than enough oomph to penetrate World War II Japanese helmets and body armor plates. This rifle hits all the details right of an original Inland (with a few well-thought-out additions) without the cost of being a piece of history. It was relatively crisp and 6.25 pounds in weight.

Shipping and handling cost me more than the pouch. You'll find anecdotal evidence on both sides of the stopping power argument, and many of the negative reviews come out of the Korean War, where our troops were engaging Chinese troops hundreds of yards away, wearing quilted uniforms and/or tough leather vests, often in extreme cold (which I suspect affected the velocity of the round).
