I went with select levers. They are unversal to FA and SA (safety lever).
I wish someone would make a 21 style safety lever modified ao that it would not scratch the finish on trigger frame (like the 'pin' type selectors.)

Comp is my second choice, but I want a 21 first style comp made (fits a 5/8-28 thread...).

This is my choice as well. Shave about 1-2mm off the metal that is near the frame and it would be great.

For improved operator ergonometrics:
Selector: Paddle type, approx 0.25 mm larger radius than conventional, cross-hatched on top and bottom as well as edge surfaces.
Safety: Pin type except with cross-hatching all around the 1.25 cm. on pin end (opposite of shaft end).
Magazine catch: With lower edge of “pad” area where operator pushes to release magazine shaped similar to the aftermarket extended safety that is sold for 1911 pistols.
For products not currently offered:
Flash hider: For M1M1A1, clamp-on similar to M1/M2 Carbine except not a megaphone, rather a bird cage type hider.
Heat shield: For top half of barrel.

With that in mind, does anyone have a Lyman Staff Assembly they want to part with?

realistically, if thompson prices keep going up, and with me being 18 and still having 3 years left before i can legally buy one, ill more then likely never own a thompson in my lifetime
