Take a shot at Al Capone's gun

The silver-plated Colt .38 Special Al Capone bought in 1939 is for sale for USD 95,000 (Rs 43 lakh). Dealer Gary Zimet, who lists the revolver on www.MomentsInTime.com, said the historic pistol was inherited by Scarface's


brother, Ralph 'Bottles' Capone, who got his nickname because he distributed beverages in Chicago.






While his brother Ralph may have been involved in a few of his brother's vices and was also convicted of tax evasion, he never became an infamous mobster.
