Who would buy a TOMMY GUN??

[jim/boston]

Holy Shit!​

I am green with envy

If we ever have a NH shoot I'll bring one (NOT the 1921 LOL)

I might have gone a little overboard (all purchased in the 90's before prices went crazy) Bottom is the Queen; a 1921 Colt with a serial # under 2000

Fap, fap, fap

The 1928 (second from top) was sold to Britain; no US acceptance stamps but British Broad Arrow and other acceptance marks on the right side of the receiver. I always thought that was cool. Markings (top to bottom) British Crown/ inspector M1 / Enfield

Finally done!

Looks good

Calling Sgt Fury and his Howling Commandos. And Sgt Rock!

I put three mags through it yesterday and didn't notice any difference in accuracy between the two barrels. Ringing steel offhand at 50 yards was boringly easy but a bit more of a challenge at 100.
I wish the trigger were a little better on it but for its intended purpose it's fine.
It's the coolest pistol caliber carbine in existence to this day IMO.

Just in time for the April Copicut Steel Challenge.

I'm sure I can go find what date but do you know off the top of your head?
I moved recently so now I'm back in the mid-Cape area. Probably won't be heading off Cape to events too often but definitely will go check out one of those Copicut shoots.
ETA: I don't see any dates for 2024 on their website. I'm free Saturday 4/13.

Cool I'm pretty sure I can make that. No kids that weekend.
Can shooters compete in two different divisions? Say if I wanted to shoot PCC and open irons?

Yup. You can shoot two different divisions.

I’ll be there at that shoot also.

Yes. Several people do that.

I will ping you when they open registration.

@Maninblue1861 I'm curious about the drum. 4 of the 6 "partions" have 10 rounds, the other 2 have 5 rounds. Is that the way it works for a max load?

End of the tracks for the ammo. That was a ww2 Seymore 50 round drum (lucked out got 2 NOS seymore and ww2 auto ordnance 50 round drums at a estate sale for peanuts)

I remember watching Sargent Saunders on Combat whaling away on his Thompson. We all wanted that gun as teenagers. I've seen some of the vintage models 1921 1927 1928 go for $28,000-$40,000. One sold for $90,000 at auction. Check out this video at 4:33 nice find....!!
