I love vintage ads.

So firing from the hip was really a thing?

Yup. It lacked the shoulder thingy that goes up, so it's not so bad.
Hip-shooting full auto long guns goes 'way back. The Browning Automatic Rifle as originally issued had no bipod: the original doctrine for use of the BAR in WWI called for "walking fire", bursts as the BAR-man advanced across No Mans Land. IIRC, the BAR gunner's ammo belt had a socket that he was supposed to place the butt into.

Hip shooting is for kittens.
