I remember reading years ago that the Astronauts had pistols aboard on the Apollo missions. The idea, as I recall, was not to repel moonmen or space invaders, but as a final option in case of some dark and desperate (but very human) eventuality.
Supposedly, the pistols were .45 cal 1911's.
This is going back 30 years or more. I can't find anything about this now. Does anyone remember what I'm talking about, or perhaps have any information about it?
