Origin
Alphonse Gabriel "Al" Capone was an American gangster during the 1920s at the height of the Prohibition. Today he is the most recognized name in organized crime and his legacy as a mob boss is legendary.
These Tommy guns were wielded by Capone's men during the events of the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre in 1929, where they shot and killed seven members of a rival gang. Due to their impressive firepower, it is believed Capone lent these guns to his men specificly for the job. They were collected from officials after his arrest and replaced with replicas.
They were seen and used to a terrifying effect in the Warehouse 13 episode, "Endless Terror"
Effects
When held, the guns unleash a wild strom of bullets when the trigger is so much as touched. The guns don't stop until either the round is empty or all targets are dead. Noted not to work when seperated and, in fact, will not fire at all. Accompanying the guns is a pair of ammo belts that, if worn at the same time, provide the guns with infinite amunition.
