I am talking individual pieces not models.
My next votes would be:
General Loan's S&W Model 40
Genral Patton's Registered Magnum
"South Vietnamese sources state that Lém commanded a Viet Cong death squad, which on that day had murdered South Vietnamese National Police officers, or in their stead, the police officers' families; these sources said that Lém was captured near the site of a ditch holding as many as thirty-four bound and shot bodies of police and their relatives, some of whom were the families of General Nguyễn's deputy and close friend, and six of whom were Nguyễn's godchildren."
Fishslayer, you must not have been around during the Vietnam war. General Loan executing the VC assassin was the picture that probably changed the political and popular tone of the entire VN conflict.
