I've been thinking about one of these for a while. One of the early 1911 "full auto" conversions was really just a forced reset trigger. It pushed the trigger forward with every cycle of the slide. Since forced reset triggers are now legal. Someone could make a pretty good copy. Especially if the 1911 had a good trigger with a short rest. Someone shooting it would hardly notice it's a forced rest trigger.

Prior to the fire at Chicopee Falls Riverside arms. The 522 humpbacks with suicide safety and left slide button release were made easier, lighter after 1922 Steven's 520 moving the slide release and trigger guard button safety. So wrap finger around to pump fire as a trench gun should.

Its a cool project always like seeing those Dillinger special builds as for leather work get the book “how to make Holsters” by Al Stohlman even has 1911 pattern in it
@johnt.chambers42043 ай бұрын
I wouldn't try to do a holster for that. I would hang it over my right shoulder on a strap and cover it with a jacket for concealment. That is how the gangsters used to carry sawed off shotguns and I think it would work quite well with the Room Broom.

@barabbastrebuchet14178 ай бұрын
It should be covered by the Any Other Weapon $5 tax stamp. I'm slightly confused about whether I can build this on a Form 1, where I am the manufacturer, for just the $5 tax stamp, or if I have to pay the $200. The ATF makes somethings clear as mud, when the consequences for doing something wrong are so severe. Luckily I know professionals.

I got my Thompson in 1985. Fun to shoot, hard to rack. Recently found the Howell Arms spring and bushing kit. Installing the kit was simple. Easy to rack now, a blast to shoot.
@barabbastrebuchet14179 ай бұрын
I recently purchased a Thompson M1 SBR and purchased both the spring kit and a extended bolt handle for it as well from Howell Arms. Both are great after market parts for something that for whatever reason is not standard on a firearm straight from the factory. It makes a world of difference. I have nothing but praise for Howell with their products and service. Everyone and their brother makes ARs it seems, and I wonder if there was competition with Auto Ordnance if the quality would improve. I would love to see Colt and Savage have a retro line of Thompsons. It's a niche market, and probably not profitable enough. It's not just that the bolts are difficult to pull back, but both Auto Ordnance firearms I've purchased have had minor BLEMs that should have been caught by quality control.

Two things, unless you know these guns you probably will not buy it. If you do know about these you will probably be deterred by the non-existent ammo.

True enough. Since I posted this I also picked up a Model 8 in .32 Remington for a very reasonable price. The fact that it included 4 boxes of .32 Remington was a deal sealer. Enough brass for reloading.

Had one as a kid. Never flew real good crashed it so many times I taped it together, put an M80 in it, lit the fuse and let it fly off by its self until it blew up. Actually flew better by itself. Nothing left of it after the M80 went off

How did you hook up your sling on the front?
@barabbastrebuchet141710 ай бұрын
I added a rear Thompson sling swivel to the front grip. Sort of copying what the British did with their Thompsons during the Second World War. I've seen photos of the swivel on either side of the grip, and I'm not sure of the history pertaining to that modification. It works though.

Owned and flew almost every plane made, and this Stuka was one of the heavier kits and was a little less peppy than some of the lighter models, including Fokker D VII, Sopwith camel, and my favorite was the Super Chipmunk, lighter and more responsive. Had the Jeep, the ASTRO Van. My buddy had a small speed boat as well as the Shrike. Loads of fun.
