Prohibition-Era Mobsters vs. Modern gangsters?

[AWildPatriot]

Basically, who do you think would win in a "war"? The mobsters of the Prohibition-Era such as the guys in the Godfather, Mafia II, etc?
Or do you think the modern bloods + crips would win?

so...were comparing guys who used tommy guns, to guys who now (if were talking about large scale war here) fully automatic rifles and high caliber pistols...

Modern weapons give post-day gangsters an unfair advantage.

Although technically correct it would make more sense to say present-day. Also it depends on the shooting discipline of each individual. Guns made 70 years ago like the tommy gun are still accurate enough to kill someone if you were an accurate shot.

I heard that the recoil in the tommy gun is horrible :O

The present day gang's are more violent. If you go back to when the Russia Mafia was around, they wernt as violent as the current Gang's.
But Back then, They were more respectable and didnt "shot to kill" like current gangs do. But in a war, I would say Present day gangs.

Uh no, he's right. The recoil on a tommy is bad. You can't shoot .45ACP full auto.

modern ones cause they have access to better weapons
