These are interesting. About ten or so years ago there were a few that showed up. Back then, a "Well Known" Thompson Collector paid $2,000.00 for just one. Soon thereafter, more crawled out of the woodwork. I have owned all three variations. Mills, Rusco, and the Unmarked. ALL of mine were 100% Genuine. I paid $2,000.00 for all three back in 1991. Today these can fetch $1,500.00 each. I wouldn't pay more than that. In fact, there was one on Gunbroker for almost a year for around $1400.00 This was from the same seller who had listed a Colt "C" Drum for over $5,000.00, and that too was listed for quite sometime.
