I have a chance at a WH M1 Thompson in excellent cond. with 1 - 30 rd mag. for $11,995. Would I be smart to grab or not???? I will trade other class 3 guns-no cash.
My WH 1928 went pending Dec. 28. Looking to add to collection, but cannot afford $18K +.

If you can't afford to spend 18K, than I would say it's about right for a WH M1.

Buy it. Period. That price is somewhat of a bargain, these days. So few of these guns were made, compared to the production figures of every other TSMG. It is a rare varient, and has generally been underpriced. After a trip for some of PK's magic, you'll have an enviable piece! That's what I did, and I love the gun.

BUY IT NOW! The price is only going up. As said, have PK do some magic to it and it will run like a champ.

Buy it now and you'll make a thousand on it in a few months.
