the thompson go's up about 5% each week now..so you can never lose.never sell short.....or pay too little too soon or too early or whenever something like that.......
wink!!wait a few minutes and you will get a real valid price.....see the way it keep's going they will be too valueable to ever sell.........
so you will be stuck with it...till death do us part!!
you think you know already what it's worth by reading all the info here.so make a educated guess,and then do what you want..and have fun.....take care,ron

Its hard to tell without photos of the gun and see what you are talking about when you say the number have been removed and what has been done to the gun. Can you get good photos? Bolt has a chip at the bottom???? |
Here are some pics.

What are they selling it for, is always a good starting point..... I'm assuming that you don't own it and not have any idea of value.

Wolf ammo = chipped bolt. |

And the busted extractor caused the bullet to lodge in the barrel....

A purist ain't going to even want it so there goes the 35K and up prices. An average Savage (thats a nice little rhyme!) is selling for 20K+ so thats where I would guess it to be.
Good luck for you.

The type of drum that comes with this Thompson could also affect the final price, as many of the early drums are very expensive. Is the drum serial numbered? That would be a big plus.
I also suggest purchasing Tracie Hill’s book, Thompson: An American Legend, The First Submachine Gun. It is still in print and available for under a $100.00 – quite a bargain when you think about what you are going to pay for a Colt Thompson. Good Luck on this deal. If you post the serial number, I am sure someone on this board will be able to tell you the original purchaser. If you post two more digits, I bet I can guess who owned it first.
