Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. This is a magnificent display gun built from excellent genuine WWII Thompson M-1928 parts and reassembled with a beautiful non-firing BATF approved original reassembled WWII issue Thompson receiver. Every part on this display gun is original WWII manufacture other than 2 inches of the receiver (as required by BATF), which has been fitted with a Steel Non-Firing Replica barrel and Cutts Compensator.

Original WW2 parts include:
- 80% original reassembled ATF approved non-firing receiver (complete with original arsenal markings!) - Serial NO.S - 313892, indicating production by Savage Firearms, or their Contractor Stevens.
- Early detachable Walnut Butt Stock without Cross Pin.
- Complete Lower Frame Assembly with intact serial number NO.S - 39658

This example is typical of the early war issue Thompson M1928A1, and is fitted with a post war replacement adjustable Lyman Sight, and smaller 20 round magazine. It also has the early style buttstock, without the reinforcement bolt, and correct machined sling swivel mounts. It has beautifully finished walnut furniture that has that red brown color only achieved after years of age. We have attached one of our replica slings to complete the look.

The Thompson 1928 sub machine gun is perhaps the most recognizable firearm of World War II, made famous by the Airborne Troops of the 101st and 82nd Airborne Divisions. This military model differs from the original commercial model in its 20 round magazine and its horizontal foregrip. Though heavy by today's standards, the weight helped control the .45 caliber bursts when operated on full automatic.

The Thompson submachine was invented by John T. Thompson in 1919 and became infamous during the Prohibition era. It was a common sight of the time, being used by both law enforcement officers and criminals. The Thompson was also known informally as: the "Tommy Gun," the "Trench Broom," the "Trench Sweeper," the "Chicago Piano," the "Chicago Typewriter," and the "Chopper." The Thompson was favored by soldiers, criminals and police alike for its ergonomics, compactness, large .45 ACP cartridges, and high volume of automatic fire and among civilian collectors for its historical significance.

Many new made replica and Airsoft Thompsons flood the market today, but this is an opportunity to own a true piece of history, a genuine WWII Thompson receiver in wonderful condition and totally legal to own in the USA by federal law without any type of license.
