gunrunner Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Colt 1921 100% original Thompson Just acquired this 1921 Colt Thompson as I’m not an expert on Thompsons, I took it to by good friend Don Quinnell owner of Don’s Gun Shop for inspection and a serious cleaning, the gun had a lot of cosmoline on it and needed a romantic candlelight bubble bath in Don’s ultrasonic. After cleaning it Don rated the gun at 92% - 92% so to be conservative let me drop it to 90% original finish left on the gun. The wood looks extremely nice; there are some minor nicks from storage on the butt stock. The lower and upper have matching serial numbers # 31xx Gun comes with the correct “L†drum # 21xx There was an original oilier in the butt stock I have a copy of the original transfer to an individual in 1934. I’m in no hurry to sell it, understand the gun is worth $35,000 or so I’m open to reasonable offers and trades. Tomorrow I will have 14 pictures available upon request. This gun may be inspected by appointment in Miami, Florida. Gun is in my inventory in Miami Ruben Mendiola 305-856-1692 Not mine just FYI and our discussion http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/smile.gif gunrunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
