I shot a WW2 GI Thompson a few years ago, that thing was a dream to shoot, super flat shooting and steady because of its 13lb weight. I was quite surprised by my grouping after putting a full stick mag on target at 25 yards, they're beamers for sure. A little rough on the ergonomics as far as grip comfort and selector/safety controls go but in all I was quite pleased with it for a nearly 100 year old submachinegun design.

@@grievetan The mp40 and ppsh were both wartime designs that used simple construction techniques and were created with practicality and sensibility in mind. The Thompson was a massive, heavy piece of masterfully crafted artistic beauty that fired a large, overpowered cardridge and functioned reliably despite being based around of a principle of physics that would later be proven entirely false. While the argument could be made that the ppsh or mp40 are better guns, they will never be as cool.

@m1ndfr34k3 2 жыл бұрын

fun fact!: earlier versions are prototypes of the Thompson smg had a fire rate similar to the MG42! This fire rate was only reduced because the army wanted a controllable smg with some spray potential

@TheRedKing247 2 жыл бұрын

To add to this: The reason the gun had such a high fire rate initially is because it was made for the Trenches of World War 1, where the controllability of the gun wasn't as critical since it was expected to be used in such close range. Also fun fact: It's because of this fire rate that it's original name was the "Annihilator 1". However after World War 1 the marketing team at Auto-Ordinance had some understandable issues with the name as so they changed it to "Thompson Submachine Gun", the first ever gun to be called a submachine gun and thus essentially founding the entire class of weapons.

@celestialfix 3 күн бұрын

We had these in the U.S. Navy in the armory aboard my ship when I got there in the 70s. They were soon replaced with M-14s. The thing about Thompsons is that they were made in an era when gunsmithing was still an art…..meaning that as each gun was first assembled a master gunsmith would hand finish each part for a perfect fit to *that* gun. Basically, parts aren’t really fully interchangeable, although it might look like they are. If you had ten Thompsons in the armory, and broke them down together, and then reassembled them without regard for matching each part to the gun it came from, you could have ten guns that don’t work anymore. This gun is a work of art. It’s like the early Ferraris…..they were really hand made.

@@jgunther3398 exactly what I say all the time. In this day and age, the purpose of a product is the only concern of a manufacturer, as far as design goes they pick the simplest, blandest looks just to get it over with. Up until the 50s this wasn't the case at all, a lot of thought was put into both the design and its functionality, everything was so stylish and it was expected to be so. Accessories, appliances, clothing items, tools, etc. Nowadays companies take the easy way because we let them.
