    It finally arrived

    Actually, given how long it was taking for ATF Form 4s to process for short barreled rifles this wasn't too bad - only took 6 months. It is an Auto Ordnance Thompson M1 - new manufacture semi. Haven't fired it yet - probably will do so tomorrow. I've got a 120 yard range on our property.

    That is freaking cool!

    Very well done. That is truly one of my "Just Because" guns.

    Agreed. One day I’ll have an SBR’d Thompson. I had a chance to shoot a full auto version once and hate myself for not taking it for spin.

    Very nice! I look forward to an update once you've shot it. I've shot a semi-auto a bit, they are a blast.

    Every once in awhile, in this sea of never-ending pictures of AR pistols, comes something so awesome that I will award internets.

    You Sir, earned 2.

    I humbly accept. I woke up at 3:30 and can't sleep thinking about shooting it. Do you think the neighbors will mind if I go out now and blast away???!!

    A wise fellow once told me, "It's sometimes easier to get forgiveness than permission." If you get along well with them, they'll get over it if they're upset. If you don't get along with them with them what's to lose?

    If they do object, then you have weeded out the commies from the freedom-loving Americans, correct?

    Hahahaha!!

    I would live to have that gun, if only as a dedicated plinker. I have enough AR's and Glocks for serious work. That would be an excellent gun to go shoot, just because you can...
