Section 19: Hunting & Fishing Subject: Colt Ad Msg# 1076067

It was 1929, and law enforcement needed a more powerful round than the .38spl for penetrating auto bodies of "motor robbers". Colt responded with the .38 Super round. As for advertising the new package, I doubt seriously if the shooting public would respond to shooting automobiles vs wild game.
