I have the following to offer:
Savage/Stevens Knurled Actuator $338 (ALL SOLD, PENDING FUNDS)
Savage Smooth Actuator $318 (1) (SOLD)
WH Cast Actuator (hardened to mil spec) $253 (1)
Shipping & insurance $7
Kits consist of one of the above actuators re-machined to specifications shown on the 1919 Auto-Ordnance print, a new Wolff recoil spring, a new Diamond K hybrid 21/28 Buffer Pilot and polyurethane Buffer Disk. All parts blued except spring & disk.
Actuator Details: The polish on the Actuator metal is "as it was" (military). They have been re-blued. The bluing on everything but the knob has a blue/purplish hue due to the heat treatment, the knob (which I believe were selectively annealed) is blue/black. Obviously the Actuators are used parts and will bear some signs of age & use, but no heavy pitting or serious dings are present. Because they are used parts I can not warranty them, only the machining to convert them.
This kit, installed into a 1928 model by simply replacing the 1928 parts, will make the gun function like the original 1921 model. The cyclic rate will be higher and the operation more positive. This is how the Thompson was originally designed to work.
