giantpanda4 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Hi KJ, Look in Tracie Hill's book "Thompson - the American Legend". Pages 344 to 347 show many of the 20 and 30 round mags with maker ids, etc. This is an excellent book to have. I highly recommend it! Good luck!

TSMG28 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 kj1, As Mike indicated, Tracie's book is an excellent source of information. I also suggest American Thunder by Frank Iannamico. It focuses on WWII Thompsons, which is when all of the XXX mags were made. A third source is the online version of Thompson Collectors Newsletter. Go to www.nfatoys.com/tsmg/tcn/default.htm and select the 2001 Index. Volume 133 - November 15, 2001, has an excellent article on the XXX mags.

Chopper28 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 There are several good articles on TSMG mags in old editions of the Thompson Collectors News. Go to the web site and just start looking throught the old online issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Without a doubt, the best book for money you can buy is Doug Richardson's book, THOMPSON SUBMACHINE GUN BOX MAGAZINES soft cover. 56 pages 8 1/2" x 11" covers all aspects of the box magazines. Best book you could have and cheap at $16.00 Phone Doug at (310) 457-6400.
