I found this neat little Thompson in an August 2007 issue of Small Arms Review that my uncle gave me. It says under the picture that its a shortened "Special Purpose" M1 Thompson designed for Commando Forces and that heat shield on the front isn't muzzle break or suppressor but it acts as your front grip. I've seen Thompson pistols before but never something this small. Anyone ever see this before? I tried to research it but found NOT ONE bit of info on it. I'd like to know what commando force used these and when. Its a pretty cool little gun. http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv254/M...ka/GEDC1688.jpg
