    I don't know how much Steve knows but I can assure you all, show him, he'll get the picture. He's a master at mechanics and fabrication. Firearms design,.construction, operation ain't gonna be a thing for him.

    Tell me more please?
    Automatic 45acp carbine machine gun. Has a 30 round magazine or a 100 round drum. If you watch any old gangster movies (and I mean Al Capone type gangster), its the one they pull out from their trench coat and hip fire at full auto. Also was an officer's issued rifle in WWII if I remember right.

    Oh yeah - that Thompson! It's old school kick ass and arguably the baddest home defense gun on the planet.

    As much as I love 45acp, If I'm gonna shoot something that big, I'd want more power and range.
    Though, at the time of its introduction , it was pretty amazing.

    Badass for sure, but it has been surpassed as a defensive weapon.

    Just my personal and biased opinion.

    In the old adds it was for ranchers to protect there land from cattle snatchen folks. That was the good old days. I an not sure if they were full auto or not but I think they were.

    They were - if I'm not mistaken, the prevalence of the Thompson among criminals is partly what led up to the NFA. I could be wrong, though.
