The Bonnie & Clyde Shotgun

Post Views: 3

This is THE definitive Bonnie & Clyde shotgun.

The historic Browning Auto-5 16-gauge “Whippet” carried by Clyde Barrow is the very shotgun seen in the iconic Bonnie and Clyde photographs, including the famous image of Bonnie Parker playfully pointing the gun at Clyde. Extensively documented through period photographs, witness testimony, forensic evidence, affidavits, and an ATF analysis, this is the actual shotgun recovered from Clyde Barrow’s lap in the Bonnie and Clyde death car following the infamous 1934 ambush in Bienville Parish, Louisiana.

Few artifacts from the Public Enemy Era can match its historical significance. From the Barrow Gang’s crime spree to the photographs that made Bonnie and Clyde international celebrities, this Browning Auto-5 remained at Clyde’s side until the very end.

Known as Clyde Barrow’s personal “Whippet” shotgun, this historic Browning A5 is one of the most important Bonnie and Clyde guns known to exist. Featured in famous Bonnie and Clyde photographs, recovered from the Bonnie and Clyde death car, and supported by extensive documentation, it stands among the most significant Bonnie and Clyde artifacts, historic firearms, and true crime history objects in existence.
