As long as they use a big backstop, we shouldn't need to use a blank Thompson.

Add in the gun shots in editing, and there would be no worries about NFA or modifying a collectable into a blank. Just my 2 cents... KJ

Never, Never, Never would I lend or allow my TSMG to be used by a film company. I just read a story about a guy who loaned his antique car to a film, and they trashed it. They paid for it, but it was basically destroyed. |
I agree 100% with this. I have worked on several film projects, from TV to big-budget movies. You've seen me on TV or DVD, trust me on that. I'd just have to freeze-frame and point myself out to you, but if you've seen any military-themed historical movies made after about 1988, I've probably been in at least one film you've seen. The reason I write all that is to explain how I know this, but you should absolutely never ever ever loan anything to a movie company that you want back in any way. I've seen movies companies paint over original wooden WW2 ammo crates to a color the lighting people thinks looks better, and even seen vehicles re-painted. The owners know nothing of this, of course, until they come back for their stuff, and the knucklehead who did it had long since left the set. And there's not thing one you can do about it in most cases. A buddy of mine who worked on, "The Rocketeer," told me that the car that gets shot up with the Thompson at the beginning was from a private collection, and it was returned with the holes in it, and painted a totally different color! And this car was a car-show contender before they got their hands on it!

BTW, all the TSMG stuff seen on the above program is yours truly. The crew should be back this spring to finish the series.
