The M1928A1 you have seen before but the M1A1 is a recent find. Picked it up in January
The finish on the M1A1 is a bit worn but it works 100%, barrel looks almost new.

Nice looking pair Anders. Would you mind telling us how much those guns cost in Sweden?

Yep, they are 100% working.
Paid appr. $1000 for the M1928A1 and $600 for the M1A1.
They both have non-matching lower/upper but I've been told that is legio on WW2 Thompsons.

Oh come on Chris, that's just a little more then you paid for yours! Remember when a Thompson was only $650 here in the US of A? Then the dealer greed took over and all hell broke lose.

Hell, the trains even run on time and Absolute Vodka runs in the streets!
$1000 for the M1928A1 and $600 for the M1A1! Geeeez Louise!
My wife is Swedish,
Here I come! .... Oh yeah, there was something about taxes....
Anders, quick question:
Where is it legal to fire those beauties?

Nice pair, Anders.
The '28 looks like a Brit one as it has the sling swivel relocated to the top of the butt with a SMLE sling. Does it have British proof marks ?

Only military ranges are approved for FA.
Semi is OK on all ranges.
