Why no-one makes .38 specials anymore?
The answer is simple, tootsie.

The truth is, time moved past us. Both us, the ruined, hard-boiled detectives, as well as those revolvers we used.
We ...we are not just needed anymore.
In a world with constant informational surveillance, as well as goons with bullet-proof jackets, automatic weapons and hard-hooking drugs... we are just obsolete.

Now, that doesn't mean we are not useful ,us detectives, or our .38 special revolvers. No, we are just as effective as we used to be. It's just that nowdays there are so many other, more advanced models available that we ...well, we just get left in the margins.

Oh, don't get me wrong, tootsie. I will work you hard in the way you have longed for, if you give me a chance. But I wonder if the time has gone past our way of life? In this interconnected world, is there anymore space for ...just two ships, meeting in the night... or for an old-fashioned romance?
