So the pistol is pretty cool. So are the markings on the side. If I know anything about design and gun makers, that stippling cannot be random.
Actually, with those thick and thin bars it looks like Morse Code. Here's anfound in the Maxim 9 manual.
Here's the Morse of it before I got bored translating:
... .. .-.. . -. -.-. . .-. ... .- .-. . .-.. . --. .- .-.. -.-.-- ... .. -... .- .-. -....- -. -.. -... .- .-. -....- -. -.. -... .- .-. -... .... .. .-. .- -- -....- .--. .... .. .-. .- -- -....- .--. .... .. .-. .- -- --. .- -- . -.-. .... -. --. .-. --. .- -- . -.-. .... -. --. .- ..-. --. .... - - .... . -. --- .. ... . ..-. --. .... - - .... . -. --- .. ... . ..-. --. .... --- .-- .-.. --- ..- -.. .... --- .-- .-.. --- ..- -.. .... --- .-- -- .- -.-- .. -- -. .. -. . ----. -- -- .. .- -- .. -.-- .- -- ...- -.-. . --..
There are definitely some mistakes that I made, especially in the beginning because some of it doesn't make sense. But here's what I got from the Morse Code(spaces added for clarity):
SILENCERS ARE LEGAL! SIBAR-NDBAR-NDBARBHIRAM-PHIRAM-PHIRAM GAME CHNGR GAME CHNGA FGHT THE NOISE FGHT THE NOISE FG HOW LOUD HOW LOUD HOW MAY IM NINE 9 MM I AM I YAMVCEZ
So either I'm imperfect or SilencerCo decided to spend $1000s of dollars to cut jibberish into steel molds. I'm thinking I just made a mistake on translating the Morse for any part that doesn't make sense. Does anyone feel like doing a better job at translating? I really just don't care enough. Neat though to see how passionate they are about their message that they would make the grips into their soapbox.
