brazos609 Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 Watching U-571 on tv again I am still curious about the Thompsons they have with what appears to be Reising side folding stocks. One guy has a Reising 55 but the others have top cocking Thompsons with what appear to be the folding stock of the 55? Was this a true military model used at any time or just a movie prop guy cobble job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne W Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 Folding stocks made by Stembridge Gun Rental. Former huge gun rental company. If they wanted a stockless gun why didn't they just take off the butt stock. But that is Hollywyrd for you. Wayne W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z3BigDaddy Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 That is the rare folding stock developed by Bill Ruger when he was a young man... Later on he used the same design, more or less, on his Mini-14... I'm sure these will bring a good premium in years to come as precurser models of the now rare Mini-14 folders, so deadly that they are now illegal to produce......

hawksnest Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 Are you talking about the Winchester model 70's in .375 H&H with the bayonet lug and integeral flash suppressor? I thought those were banned. http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/unsure.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
