It is a mighty fine addtion to my collection. I imagine anyone would like to add one of these to their collection!

Expect so, I know I wanted one for a very long time till I finally got one. Many are quite surprised how much these things weigh. You see guys handling them like plastic in the war movies. No wonder they gave most officers M1 Carbines which weigh nothing compared to the Thompson.

No kidding on the weight, I wanted a Tommy really bad until I finally got to hold one and almost couldn’t pick it up……Very beautiful cool rifle but I just can’t figure out why the thing weighs so dang much……..I guess those guys in the gangster movies were weight lifters or sumpin…….Originally Posted by Bawanna

I think the bolt on the thing weighs 6 or 8 pounds, it's heavy. I've heard the full auto ones aren't quite as heavy but still no light weight.

Son number 1 was driving cross country to his next duty station and stopped by a gun shop with a range in Ogden, Utah. They had a rental full auto tommy gun he rented and shot. He said it cost him $50 the rental and a box of .45 for about 60 seconds of firing but was the funnest $50 he ever spent.
The only thing better than having all the guns and ammo you'd ever need would be being able to shoot it all off the back porch.
Want to see what will be the end of our country as we know it???
