Well, maybe, Guy - -
- -But there's sure a lot of interest in the M1 and M1A1 Thompsons, what with the "Saving Private Ryan" movie and the "Band of Brothers" TV series.
I'd really like to locate one at a reasonable (read, "Felony Theft") price, but I fear those days are gone forever. Another option, especially for the re-enactors, is to locate one of the Semi versions of the M1, and jump thru the hoops and pay the tax to have it converted to a Short Barrelled Rifle - - Yeah, it wouldn't shoot full auto, but it would LOOK really good, and it WOULD shoot.
Caught a re-run of a BOB episode on The History Channel the other night, and I'm getting fired up again, to own an M3 Grease Gun. Why? I dunno . . .
Best,
Johnny
