Thought i would ask some experts here.Now as you know i have a Capone website dedicated to gangsters.In the St. Valentine's day massacre it was shown that two thompsons were used.Seventy .45 ACP shells surrounded the seven bodies.It was assumed one thompson had a twenty rd. clip and the other a 50 rd. drum.Some historians stated that this was probably the case because the killers wanted to make sure that least one of the two guns didn't jam.
Now onto my question does the drum have a higher failure rate than a stick mag?or the other way around?
I have a japan thompson model gun and the stick mag misfires, but the drum is flawless.(fired it off today man what a thrill)!!!!!!!

I want to know about the real thompsons guns and their mags from the people who actually use them
The guns in the massacre were 1921 models.
Best regards to all,
Mario
