A Mixed Marriage


Recommended Posts

Numerous changes to the 1928 Thompson design were required to get ATF approval for its semi-auto cousin, the Numrich 1927A1. Among them was that the "lower receiver" (frame) is missing the front ~3/8" of the portion that usually lies flush with the "upper" receiver.27A1.jpg

 

I'm looking for a 1928 frame sufficiently dinged up that I can remove that same metal so it'll fit a semi-auto receiver without going to Thompson hell for such ballistic blasphemy. Or maybe someone out there is like me and buys stuff, having no plans for it or knowledge of what I'd do with it, but sees a box of stuff at a gun show and says "why not?" and has one already machined that's just sitting around. (It could happen. I'm often amazed at the stuff I find.)

 

I await your serendipitous offers and/or derisive laughter.
