Dunno who thought it was badass, but the story that I remember from MANY years back was that the Chinese used the full-auto Broomhandle Mauser that way, probably pre and WW2 time frame. HGW |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I can't argue with your point, Mark. All I can do is imagine someone completely unschooled in gun use getting input from someone only slightly more involved as to how to put that feared recoil to best use. Granted "looking badass" is likely the prime motive but who first decided that holding a gun sideways was badass rather than just silly and why did he think so?
