Here's 3 for sale. Now we know where they have been hiding. Wisconsin 3 A-5's for sale |
I was the 4th guy to read that ad this morning and actually called them (As well as E-Mailing) to say I'd take one.
The guy I talked to said they were talking to the first person in line to buy all three

They said they'd get back to me by monday so.......
I'm not really sure what they're worth(I saw that $4,000 one on gunsAmerica or Gunbroker.com a month or so ago) but I used to have one and thought it was about the "Neatest" (11LB) "Pistol" I ever had. I would'nt mind having another one and we almost never see them here in OR/WA.
Do they show up much in other parts of the country?
EDIT: I just re-read FA45's quote and realized that they must be about as hard to find in other places.

I paid $1,500.00 for this off GunBroker a few months after I found this board and y-all f***ed me up for the rest of my life with all things Thompson.

Here it is compared to my SFAB Thompson... The drum in it is a Crosby I picked up off Auction Arms for 4 bills.... I think I might have sniped it from someone on the board here if I remember correctly..... It is kinda ugly but it is a runner.... And I need runners in my gun to keep up with the speed....

I love the look of your SFAB.

Who built that gun for you?
Did they hard time fitting the firing pin to the bolt?

I had the drum doctor do it actually..... He did the bolt work to make it select fire, barrel, and set up the reciever so it would take the 28 stock.... I was the one who actually fitted the pin..... Still working on the pin now that you mention it.... I need to fill the space on the bolt face as it pops primers..... But I didn't want to redrill the pin and file down the front to make it fit if you know what I mean.... These things were made pretty sloppy..... Just put in the paddle selectors so I only need to put on the real deal Lyman and I'm finished.....
