That's why I get a tickle when ever I read about a 1911 with the serial number removed " it was made for the OSS agents in occupied countries "
. Plus ( and I've read all of the books ) Flemimg was not a gun person, he once had Mr. Bond carrying his PPK in a Berns Martin shoulder holster { for those who don't know the Berns Martin holster, it only works with revolvers }.
